{"product_id":"psittacus-high-energy","title":"Psittacus High Energy Parrot Pellets","description":"\u003cp\u003ePsittacus High Energy is a complete pellet diet formulated for parrot species that naturally consume high volumes of fruits and seeds from oleaginous plants in the wild. It is particularly well suited to genera such as Psittacus, Ara, and Poicephalus — including African Greys and macaws — where energy-dense nutrition is a genuine dietary requirement, not an optional extra. Available in a range of sizes to suit keepers from single-bird households to larger collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho It Is Designed For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis diet is matched to species whose wild foraging brings them into regular contact with oil-rich seeds and fatty fruits. Genera including Psittacus, Ara, and Poicephalus have higher fat and energy requirements than many other parrots, and a standard maintenance diet will not meet those needs long-term. Psittacus High Energy is built around that biological reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNutritional Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe analytical constituents reflect the elevated energy demands of these species:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrude Protein: 17.0%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrude Oils and Fats: 11.0%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeeding Guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDaily intake typically falls between 5% and 8% of the bird's body weight, though this varies with ambient temperature — warmer conditions generally reduce intake, cooler conditions increase it. Medium-sized species such as the African Grey parrot typically consume in the region of 20–40g per day, but individual birds should be monitored and portions adjusted accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eChoosing the Right Size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePsittacus High Energy is available in multiple bag sizes, from a smaller option suitable for trialling the diet or housing a single bird, up to larger quantities better suited to multi-bird setups or regular bulk feeding.
