Feeding

Hi can i feed my birds nutri berries and seeds as well or should I do one or the other thanks

Hi,

Nutri-Berries are formulated as a complete diet, the same as pellets, but they are not ground up. The seeds are fresh, human grade with the hulls removed, and a nutritionally balanced coating added so your bird gets complete nutrition in every bite. You should not feed any extra seeds with this diet or you are diluting their nutrients.

A seed mix provides little in the way of nutrition because the seeds are not fresh enough to retain their nutrients, and any added vitamins are lost when the bird removes the hulls.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,

Brenda
