All 6 of my budgies love this product! There is little waste, and they get excited for it every morning. I love that it has real fruit pieces and is fortified with vitamins and minerals, so it is a healthier choice than plain seed. Also, it smells great. Will continue to purchase!
My first time birds of a year and a half now, have been enjoying this brand of bird food. They get excited when they hear the bag crinkle. I was thinking of switching brands but why I thought, when they're doing so well.
Only food my parakeets will eat. Hard to find in stores. Best part is Chewy delivered quickly!!!!
I HAVE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT MY BIRD WILL EAT. DOES HE EAT PARAKEET FOOD OR COCKATIEL FOOD OR BOTH
We switched from a competitor food to ZuPreem on the advice of persons in a FB group and we aren't sorry. Our four male budgies LOVE this food. I have to clean out hulls a few times a day for them. I feel better giving this quality brand of food to our little ones. Especially since we now know that Chewy will always have it when we need it.
My 8 keets will not eat anything but the small seeds, leaving most of the larger ones to waste. I don't blame the bird food, I think my keets are too finiky.
Got the bird seed but the bag was open. Looks like it was cut. The seeds were in the box at least but I can't be sure that I have a full bag. It seems kind of light.
I was under the impression that this was more pelletized than seed.
I have a green cheek conure and she loves this food - very little is wasted! She especially likes the little white seeds that are in the mix.
I bought this food because I understand that budgies need to not be wholly on a 100% seed diet. I have been having lots of trouble getting my budgie to eat pellets and hoped that this food would help with the transition. I find that he seems to be picking out the seed and then he is hungry because he isn't getting enough food. This has been going on for over a month and the little stubborn monster (I say that with a smile and in a loving way) is still not eating pellets. I am at my wits end trying to get him to eat food that is not just seed. He also won't touch any veggies or fruits I have tried to introduce to him. With that said, I really can't fault the food because I just think I have a really stubborn and picky bird!
