00:00 Food and your parrot.

00:03 Parrots do not just eat seeds.

00:05 My name is Rose Levine.

00:07 I am the founder of Parrots First and I have a passion for parrots.

00:12 What is a well-balanced diet for a parrot?

00:15 Parrots require a variety of different foods.

00:18 We feed our birds fresh vegetables and fruits daily.

00:21 Leafy greens, lots of berries.

00:24 We also feed them pasta, cooked and uncooked, and the occasional treat of pizza crust.

00:30 How do you feed your parrot on a daily basis?

00:33 We give ours their fresh vegetables and fruits in the morning hours where it's cooler.

00:37 We don't want them eating anything that has gone bad from heat or from the sun.

00:42 In the evening we feed them a combination of pasta, chicken legs with the chicken taken

00:47 off for the macaws, and vegetables for the smaller birds.

00:52 We also feed our birds pellets, which has a combination of vitamins and minerals in

00:57 them.

00:58 Some pellets tell you that they are complete and that you don't need to feed your parrot

01:02 anything else.

01:03 This is not true.

01:04 Parrots need their fresh foods as well.

01:06 Are there bad foods for your parrot?

01:08 Yes.

01:09 Parrots should never eat avocados, chocolate, or have any kind of caffeine.

01:14 No alcoholic beverages either.

01:16 Parrots should eat a diet that is low in fat, high in fruits, vegetables, and grains.
