Calcium rich foods


What bird foods are calcium rich?


Answer:

Hi,

There are many calcium rich foods for pet birds – more than I can list here. Some examples are dark leafy greens, broccoli, carrots & sweet potatoes. Also tree nuts. The best thing is to Google calcium rich foods for pet birds. However, unless your bird is a breeder and actively nesting or your Vet has recommended extra calcium, it’s best just to focus on a balanced diet. Too much of even the healthiest foods can be harmful.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,
