  • Hey Bird Gang! It can be a bit confusing trying to figure out the best foods to feed your parrot on a daily basis. We love our parrots and want the best for them and sometimes we like to share our foods with them.
    I’ve put together a methodology to follow when making your parrot’s chop that is easy to mix and match depending on the seasonal availability of food in your area. A lot of parrot owners complain it is too time consuming to make fresh chopped veggie mix daily, but now you can spend a few hours once every 2-3 months (pretty sweet right?) for you to make some parrot chop that you can freeze, defrost the night before, and feed your parrot in the morning followed by some healthy pellets in the evening for meal 2 of the day. It’s the next best thing to daily fresh chop that’s a win-win for you (time efficient) and your parrot (nutrient dense and maintains most of its freshness).

    I’m so glad I found you! Someone just gave me a Senegal. I know nothing about this bird. He is biting me in the cage. So I am going to follow your vids and hopefully live thru this. Lol.

    Good job, chop formulating is a craft that is so rewarding to master it, at first it had my brain in pain but it gets easier to understand with time. I don’t use pasta, just grain, raw quinoa has been a favorites for my bird. When your bird throws chop out of their bowl they can pick on the taste and more often than not that way they realize it feels and tastes good.
    Less cooked stuff is better because cooked stuff go bad quicker, you can sprout some legumes (stick to chickpea, garbanzo, pea, mung and adzuki beans, other beans can be toxic when sprouted and raw, you can do a lot with this few legumes), you can sprout many grains, you can feed some grains raw/soaked like quinoa and millet and wild rice (I always soak them), you can sprout and soak lentils. Always cook beans, never feed them raw. I personally think it is okay to give just a tiny percentage of cooked stuff as long as 85% of the chop is fresh and diverse, so they have the antioxidants to deal with the cooked ingredients in the first place. I do not feed pasta, some birds will fill up on it because it’s all yummy carbs.

    No carrots? my lorikeet LOVES carrot chop - well she loves making carrot chop, doesn't really eat it, just turns 3-5 carrots a day into a huge pile of chop at the bottom of that cage that I'm not allowed to touch.
    I'm watching this for more ideas of what to try for her, haven't tried pumpkin, might give that a go :) both mine HATE peppers & also cabbage, so not sure if they'd eat the brussel sprouts if they hate cabbage so much would they?

    I am going to try all your suggestions in a few days.
    Just one question can you use can of beans or use a food processor for the chopping?
    Thanks and keep up the good work.

But if I put my hand close to her she will try to bite... For the moment I will let her fly around to know the place without me trying to touch her.

I noticed you dont use the seeds from the peppers, are they bad for senegals, I've been feeding kiwi the seeds sprinkled on top of the chop. Is your butternut squash cooked? Thank you again x

    My man 😅 African Parrots eats a toooon of legumes, lentils and beans in the wild, including garbonzo beans that have farmed there for many hundreds of years 🙈 also, I would skip the pasta, I know it's healthier than regular white pasta made with flour, but it's still a processed product. Sprouted seeds and beans are way better for your parrot than any kind of pasta, and most parrots go bananas for them

      Strictly speaking in terms of evolution, we were born to enjoy both plants and animals. Our teeth are designed to do both! That is a fact, my earthling friend, not an opinion. Look at the teeth of planteaters and the teeth of meat eaters, they are both designed for a specific purpose. Your biased opinion that animals are not food is incorrect. However, I will agree that processed food has no place in our homes or bellies. Carry on my wayward son.........
