Psittacus High Protein Parrot Pellets 800g

Psittacus High Protein 800g is a complete pelleted diet formulated for parrots whose natural diet consists of significant quantities of fruit and seeds with a low to moderate fat content. It is suited to genera including Amazona, Cacatua, Psittacula, and Pionus, delivering a nutritional profile that reflects the dietary demands of these species without relying on loose seed mixes or supplementation.

Suitable Species

This diet is designed for fruit- and seed-eating parrot species with low to moderate fat requirements. Typical candidates include blue-fronted amazons, African ringnecks, white cockatoos, and pionus parrots — species where excess dietary fat can lead to long-term health complications.

Feeding Guidance

Daily intake is calculated at 5% to 8% of the bird's body weight. For medium-sized species such as blue-fronted amazons, this typically falls between 20g and 35g per day. Ambient temperature has a direct influence on intake, so quantities may need adjusting seasonally or in response to environmental changes.

Nutritional Profile

• Crude protein: 21.5%
• Crude oils and fats: 8.0%
• Complete pelleted format — no additional supplementation required

Psittacus High Protein gives keepers a consistent, measurable base diet that removes the guesswork from parrot nutrition — particularly for species where dietary balance has a direct impact on long-term health and condition.
