Maintain Your Pet Bird's Healthy Diet

Video Transcript

"Hi my name is Sarah and I’m coming to you from Petland in Pinborough Pines, Florida today and on behalf of expertvillage.com, I am going to speak with you today about how to buy a pet bird. One additional expense that you will run into when owning a pet bird, is getting it on a good proper diet. It is very important if not the most important thing that you will have your bird on the proper diet which generally is a pelleted diet. Pellets are just like cat and dog food for cat and dogs. It is a 100 percent nutritionally complete balanced pellet for your bird. In addition to the pellets, you should be feeding healthy fruits and vegetables and healthy people food. Foods that you want to stay away from are alcohol, avocado and chocolate as these can be toxic and dangerous to your bird. Seeds are not a healthy diet for your bird. While seeds may be less expensive, they are not healthy for your bird and can cause a number of health problems later on in life for your bird.
