Hey!
Welcome to Aa!

What kind of parrot do you have?
If this is the first time your parrot is eating pellets (or you switched from a different brand) it might not see it as food.
Will it eat other (known) food? If so give him that.
Is the expiration date on the package ok?
If you changed nothing in his diet he needs a vet asap.

Birds are well known to be difficult with food changes so if you can give some of what he came with he may be happier to eat. You may have to take some time to convert him to the new pellets you have bought for him. This link might be helpful for you to look through Converting Parrots to a Healthier Diet - Tips

Those pellets aren't bad at all.. If you have more (or can get more) I'd continue them and gradually switch to others (you prefer).
When I switched my parrot to pellets I ate them in front of him... pretending they're the best thing I ever had! ... He just needed to try what the fuss is about..
