Why feed Pellets? Pelletised foods have the major benefit of having balanced nutrition. Trying to replicate a bird’s natural diet can be tricky. Most parrots require fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds as well as minerals & grit to aid digestion. This is where pelletised foods like Harrisons Organic come into their own. Birds can’t pick and choose only the seeds they like or that are high in fat. With Pellets every pellet is formulated for optimal nutrition.

I feed Bird Seed, why should I feed Pellets? Birds will tend to pick out their favourite seed out of seed blends and toss the rest onto the floor of the cage. The larger parrots are usually going after sunflower. This High Fat Seed is used to make oil. So if you’re only feeding sunflower, you’re pretty much feeding your bird oil. This can lead to a whole lot of health problems. Feather loss or feather plucking and obesity in parrots are all issues that can be linked to birds being fed a sunflower seed diet high in fat.

Harrisons High Potency or Harrisons Lifetime?

Harrisons Organic bird foods come in High Potency or Lifetime formulas. High potency is used for the first 6 month during conversion from seed based diets to a pelletised diet. It has a higher fat and protein level to help adjust the birds onto a pelletised diet. After 6 months of feeding on High Potency most species of birds can be moved onto the Lifetime Formula. This has slightly lower levels of fat and protein and is a more balanced diet for the remainder of the bird’s life.

Harrisons also makes a highly palatable treat called Power Treats. These are great for treating your parrot and used to encourage bonding between you and your bird. Power treats can also be fed as a conversion food when transitioning birds from seed based diets.
