I order for 37 birds so I need a healthy mixture of everything. I believe to remain health they need a high quality pelleted food I use Hari small parrot and Hari Cockatiel size as my base product . To this I add Higgins safflower which is suppose to have almonds and peanuts The last two shipments have contained very buggy food with either one almond or none at all. So I am ordering the tiki blend even though what I need are almonds not the rest I advise any bird owner to place their feed in the freezer over night to kill off the moth populations before you have a real problem. Chewy happily replaces anything you are not happy with so it is not Chewy at fault here It is the Higgins corporation trying to cut costs and still maintain their price I am looking for a better seed/nut mixture to add Our parrots need to have some seed and nuts in their diets to maintain proper muscle control in their beaks and overall health. I also give daily chop veggies as well.
I try to feed low sunflower seed to my Umbrella Cockatoo because I’ve read it’s bad for them. This seed has No sunflower seed. And my Cockatoo likes it.
Lately this food seems old. Peanut shells are black and yes there are sunflower seeds despite the bag indicating NO sunflower seeds. The last few bags I ordered were full of sunflower seeds. I keep pulling them out.
I feed this to my parrots because sunflower seeds are so fatty. I mix with other sunflower mixes so give them a better diet. My birds are all over 20+ years old and I feed them the best to keep them living.
I have been buying this for a long time, two bags at a time. My last two bags were old and dusty with web threads running thru it. Filled with a lot of peanuts and almonds in shell making up the weight of the product. Very disappointing.
Jazz loves this !! The smell of this is even awesome! Very fresh ! This is her go too ;)
Used Safflower Gold Large for my aviary and personal parrots. Quality Seed and Nuts.
I love this for my African Grey Parrot and she loves it too.
If I can't get another parrot food blend of nuts & safflower seeds, I always try to obtain this formula. My parrots also love it & it does NOT contain the fattening sunflower seeds (which I always avoid giving my parrots). We are avoiding "fatty liver disease" in this house)! Only healthy foods*
Great seed. Too expensive at Chewy wont be buying again...
