Psittacus Micro Complete Pellet Diet for Small Parrots 5kg

Psittacus Micro 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 and Psephotus. If you keep small psittacines and want a nutritionally balanced staple that removes the guesswork from seed-based feeding, this is a serious option worth considering.

Designed for the Right Birds

This diet is targeted at smaller grass-seed-eating species: genera including Melopsittacus, Nymphicus, Psephotus, and Neophema. These birds have specific nutritional requirements that differ from larger parrots, and Psittacus Micro is formulated to reflect that. It is not a catch-all diet adapted down — it is built around this group from the outset.

Feeding Guidance

Daily intake varies meaningfully between species and is also influenced by ambient temperature. As a guide, cockatiels typically consume around 10% of their body weight per day, while common budgerigars may eat up to 18%. Keepers should monitor intake and adjust accordingly rather than applying a single fixed quantity across all birds.

Nutritional Composition

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

Psittacus Micro gives keepers a transparent nutritional baseline to work from, making it straightforward to assess how it sits within a broader husbandry routine.

With a 5kg pack size, Psittacus Micro suits both single-bird households and small collections, providing a consistent, species-appropriate diet that supports long-term health in these smaller psittacines.
