"Our cockatiels have a standard subscription of these pellets from Chewy. I feed them a blend of 80% pellets and 20% seeds topped off with broccoli slaw. They enjoy their food and this keeps them healthy. Highly recommend."
"I've bought zupreem since probably 2003 because vets recommended it as the best, especially when the company brought out their natural line. I keep trying to find a good feed other than zupreem because it's not "natural" as claimed! And Im trying to avoid seed-based blends, and other brands arent so..."
