How long will a 5 pound tub last me for one cockatiel? I want to know how frequently I should restock

Answer by ChewyDec 18, 2019
This food can be offered as a full meal or as an important part of your bird’s diet. Many cockatiel owners have found that their birds love a combination of foods along with their pellets, such as Nutri-Berries, Avi-Cakes, and various fruits and vegetables. The manufacturer recommends giving three teaspoons daily and mixing this with Nutri-Berries or Avi-Cakes.

How long will this stay fresh?

Answer by ChewySep 02, 2022
Lafeber pellets have a “Best By” date stamped on the package when it is manufactured, approximately 14-15 months. The product should be stored in a sealed container, in a cool, dry area. Pellets can be refrigerated or frozen.

are these high in sugar?

Answer by ChewyMay 16, 2019
No sucrose (sugar) is added to the Premium Daily Diet. The molasses in the product gives flavor as well as a source of simple carbohydrates that the birds need. The cane molasses is less than 3% of the diet and provides longer chain carbohydrates. The total energy level is very important and for cockatiel Premium is 3267 Kcal/Kg. This is a healthy energy level for cockatiels and because Premium is a balanced food, cockatiels will not put on excess weight.

can I feed this food to my toucan

Tiki always enjoyed nutriberries

My beloved cockatiel, tiki, loved nutriberries. She was always excited for meal time. They did her well. She lived 27 years on them.

Efficiency

Could no longer find the product in a local store. I like face to face purchases. But, since it wasn’t available, I chose you. My cockatiel is 30 years old.

Could no longer find the product in a local store. I like face to face purchases. But, since it wasn’t available, I chose you. My cockatiel is 30 years old. I think he is healthy due to a varied, healthy diet which includes the pellets. Thank you.
