Serving Suggestions if Fed as a Nutritious Treat
Reward your feathered friend any time you want. Bird lovers often give 2 or 3 cakes whenever they feel the urge to spoil their buddies!
Serving Suggestions if Fed as a Full and Nutritious Diet
It is important for your bird's sense of well being and comfort to have food in his dish at all times. Place enough Avi-Cakes in the dish as you estimate your bird will eat without wasting too much. If the dish is emptied, refill as needed. Because birds love variety, we recommend feeding your bird fresh fruits and vegetables as 20% of his total daily diet.
Simply start by adding 2 or 3 Avi-Cakes to his food dish. Slowly increase the amount of Avi-Cakes at the same time you decrease the current diet. Sometimes tearing the Avi-Cakes into smaller pieces during this transition helps.

I recently adopted an older cockatiel bird that was on all seed diet only. After a vet checkup, we found out that he was underweight and recommended this product. My cockatiel loves it.

My quaker parrot has this for his afternoon treat while I'm at work. I come home to avi-cake dust.

My birds are addicted to this. As soon as they see the Avi-cakes bag in my hands, they are giving me their beaky smiles and are waiting greedily for their treats.

George and I (Sammy) have been raised on Avi-cakes since we were able to have treats (we are 30 years old now). She knew what was good for our diet and keeps a fresh supply on hand for us. I am a Red mitred Conure and my picky cohort George is a very finicky Senegal. I guess the term "Classic" fits us just as much as the name of our favorite treat.

My Sun Conure has a giant sweet tooth. He loves this sweet treat. I give him a couple of small pieces in his treat bowl every day and they're always gone. I recommend this product to anyone who has a bird.

Reading the reviews, I decided to try this for my cockatiels. They are pretty finicky yet really enjoyed this. It is a soft/chewy treat that they have taken to and I will order again.
