Psittacus Micro Complete Pellet Diet for Small Parrots

Psittacus Micro is a complete pelleted diet formulated specifically for small parrot species — including budgerigars, cockatiels, and related grass-seed specialists such as Neophema and Psephotus. Available in a range of sizes to suit everything from single-bird households to larger collections, it takes the guesswork out of daily nutrition for these species.

Formulated for Grass-Seed Specialists

Small parrots in the genera Melopsittacus, Nymphicus, Psephotus, Neophema and similar groups have evolved primarily on grass seeds, and their nutritional requirements reflect that. Psittacus Micro is built around those needs, delivering a balanced profile suited to their digestive systems and natural dietary habits rather than a generic parrot formula scaled down.

Analytical Constituents

• Crude protein: 16.0%
• Crude oils and fats: 7.5%

Feeding Guidance

Daily intake varies by species and ambient temperature — budgerigars typically consume up to around 18% of their body weight per day, while cockatiels require roughly 10%. Warmer or cooler conditions will influence how much a bird eats, so it is worth monitoring intake and adjusting accordingly rather than following a fixed quantity.

Choosing the Right Size

Psittacus Micro is available in several pack sizes, from smaller options ideal for single birds or trial feeding through to larger quantities suited to aviaries or multi-bird setups. Select the size that matches your usage rate to keep the diet fresh and minimise waste.
