Psittacus Micro 1kg Complete Pellet Diet for Small Parrots

Psittacus Micro 1kg is a complete pellet diet formulated specifically for small parrot species that naturally feed on grass seeds — including budgerigars, cockatiels, and related genera such as Neophema, Psephotus, and Nymphicus. If you keep small parakeets and want a nutritionally balanced staple diet in pellet form, this is designed with their specific dietary profile in mind.

Species Suitability

This diet is matched to the nutritional requirements of small grass-seed specialists. It is appropriate for genera including Melopsittacus (budgerigars), Nymphicus (cockatiels), Psephotus, and Neophema, among others — birds whose natural foraging centres on grass seeds rather than fruit or larger nuts.

Feeding Guidance

Daily intake varies depending on species and ambient temperature, which directly influences how much a bird will consume. As a guide, cockatiels typically eat around 10% of their body weight per day, while common budgerigars may consume up to 18%. Keepers should monitor intake and adjust accordingly, particularly during seasonal temperature changes.

Nutritional Composition

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

Psittacus Micro gives keepers a straightforward, consistent way to meet the dietary needs of small parakeet species without relying solely on seed mixes, supporting long-term health and condition.
