Psittacus Micro

Psittacus Micro is a complete pellet 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 a single bird household to a larger collection or aviary setup.

Formulated for Grass-Seed Species

Small parrots in the genera Melopsittacus, Nymphicus, Psephotus, and Neophema have evolved primarily on grass seeds, and their nutritional requirements differ from fruit- or nut-eating species. Psittacus Micro is built around that dietary profile, delivering balanced nutrition in a pellet format suited to smaller beaks and digestive systems.

Analytical Composition

Each batch is produced to a consistent nutritional specification. Declared analytical constituents include crude protein at 16.0% and crude oils and fats at 7.5%, providing a reliable energy and protein profile appropriate for small psittacines in normal maintenance conditions.

Daily Feeding Guidance

Daily intake varies by species and should be monitored accordingly — cockatiels typically consume around 10% of their body weight per day, while common budgerigars may take up to 18%. Ambient temperature has a meaningful influence on how much birds eat, so intake should be assessed in the context of the environment rather than a fixed quantity.

Choosing the Right Size

Psittacus Micro is available in multiple pack sizes, making it straightforward to match your order to the size of your collection and how frequently you restock. Select your preferred option from the variants listed on this page.
