Hello and interested in advance nutrition

[Cday2]

Hello, Long time owner of all types of parrots and softbills. I bred birds for about 15 years. I finally decided I would really like to take vacations, and not be tied to my property 24/7 365 days a week. Sold off all breeders. I know have a little flock that is manageable. I keep Plum Heads, Caiques, a Rose Breasted, a very smart little blue Quaker and my easter eggs...a pair of Parrolets.

Looking for talking on advance nutrition for parrot diets. You can only improve and make it the best for your birds.

Hi Cathy! There are two great experts, Dr. Jason Crean at beaksbirdhouse.com
And Dr Karen Becker at Integrative Pet Care Expert, Dr. Karen Becker - Mercola.com

Dr. Crean has a FB group on nutrition. I’m with you- we can always improve our regimen.

There is the Parrot's Pantry on FB with some knowledgeable people, and there used to be a good yahoo group with science/data-driven info on nutrition, ingredient interaction, etc.
