What Should a Healthy Cockatiel Diet Include?

A cockatiel’s diet must be balanced, avoiding excess seeds and sugary treats.

✔ Pellets (60–70%)

Choose high-quality pellets like Zupreem — they provide complete nutrition.

✔ Seeds (20–30%)

Use a healthy mix from Harissons, Padovan, or Pinny.

Avoid seed-only diets to prevent obesity and nutrient deficiency.

✔ Fresh Foods (10–15%)

Offer vegetables like spinach, carrots, broccoli, and small amounts of fruit.

✔ Clean Water

Fresh, filtered water should always be available.

✔ Occasional Treats

Millet sprays and nuts in moderation.
