Bird Chop Builder Chart
Creating healthy meals for your bird will ensure a happy, healthy parrot. The access to fresh fruit and vegetables is a must for any pet parrot, however some owners find it difficult when their parrot will only selectively eat the same fruit and veg. Our chop building chart will help you create a balanced chop that suits both fresh feeding and freezing for convenience!
PRO TIP:
- For picky birds and to help with diet conversion, make sure all vegetables are chopped finely with the same consistency. To offer variety, chop each vegetable a little differently
- When freezing, chop everything at the same consistency and avoid extra watery / juicy fruits and vegetables
- Freeze in portions that your bird will use in about a week.
- When thawing, drain in a colander or on paper towels and mix in some old fashioned whole grain oats to help absorb the extra moisture. Draining does make it less nutritious.
