Fill your pet bird’s food dish with approximately what your pet consumes within a 24 hour period. Usually for cockatiels, the portion may range between ¼ to ½ cup of food per bird. Adjust the portions to meet your bird’s specific dietary needs. Supplement this diet with fresh fruits and vegetables. Remove uneaten food and seed hulls and clean food dish before refilling with new food. Always maintain fresh drinking water for your pet bird.
While introducing a new food to your bird friend, gradually mix new food with your pet’s old diet. Increase the amount of food over a period of 7 to 10 days. This will allow your pet to adjust to the new food and it will prevent any upset to your pet’s digestive system.

Cockatiels cannot eat in shell sunflower seeds
By JohnDude69 on Oct 16, 2021
Okay I am not an expert but why in the world do they put sunflower seeds in this mix? It is physically impossible for a parakeet to open up a sunflower seed and eat it. They just take up space and end up being thrown in the trash so like half of this food is unsuitable for cockatiels anyway maybe parrots and conures but NOT cockatiels.

Cockatiels love this great smelling food!
By PeachesMommy on Sep 27, 2021
I feed my 2 cockatiel babies Peach and Jimmy this great smelling seed mix. I add this to their pellets and another nut & seed mix for variety and nutrition. They really love this stuff I can tell from all the husks. There is some waste, but they are picky little birds and I do give them fresh food every day. The 3 lb bag lasted me about 3 months.

Birds wouldn’t eat it
By Michmom23 on Aug 31, 2021 top100Contributor
I purchased multiple bags of this seed wanting to offer a variety to our recent rescued girls who needed a boost in nutrition. They did not like it nor would they eat it. The food dishes were flipped over or sat full and untouched. I went back to the basic parakeet mix of a different brand and they ate like they were on a hunger strike. I’m not sure if it’s these birds in particular or this brand/version but it was not accepted by our birds.

Too much filler
By Rockatiel on Aug 24, 2021
Lots of sunflower seed and whole pumpkin seed in this mix. I have a problem with that, because the picture on the package shows unshelled pumpkin seed (the green seeds), not whole. There's also a lot of dried fruit. My cockatiel doesn't eat any of those things, so at least half of this blend is wasted. I've had to mix it with seed with less filler so he will have enough to eat, and unfortunately, I have two more bags to go through because I signed up for autoship and forgot to cancel after the first bag. I like that there's no unnatural dyes and added protein (which is why I ordered this seed in the first place).

Great stuff
By Birdlover on Apr 8, 2021
I got this for my cockatiel. After giving him this food he jumped on it and went to town eating. The other for her was eating smelled horrible and gave him bad breath. It has a great spell. It seems to be a good blend of seed and fruit.

Just what my Max wanted!
By BeeKayPee on Apr 21, 2021
We must have one of the few cockatiels in the country that don't like sunflower seeds. I had to search for a while to find a substitute. This is it. And the Protein / Fat /Fiber proportions are good.

My Cockatiels Love this Food
By Lexiejane on Jun 1, 2021
I was pleased that my birds loved this food after not being able to find their regular brand. They are very particular birds.
