 Shop for Bird Food |
Birds are notoriously picky eaters, as any bird owner can testify. It is important to know what food is going to give your bird a nutritional diet so that your bird stays healthy and active for a long time. Poor nutrition is a major cause of illness and death in companion birds. Before shopping for bird food, you should check with your veterinarian for guidance. Even within one family of birds like the macaws, there are dietary differences. Birds are not always the best judges of what they should eat in order to get the proper nutrition, but they will let you know what the do and dont like.
Variety is an important part of a healthy birds diet. Birds tend to bore quickly if they are fed just one thing again and again. Its good to have a base diet that provides vitamins and nutrients your bird needs, but also supplement that diet with different treats to keep your bird interested. When shopping for treats, look for food that will provide your bird with added stimulation such as treats shaped in bars that are hung from the cage. When you find a treat that you bird likes and contributes to your birds diet, buy more of them because you will probably go through them quickly.
