Is there a cockatiel weekly meal plan?

[Airman21]

Hey guys, i love my cockatiels and i care for them so much, i want their diet to be healthier so. I currently feed my cockatiels 50% pellets 50%seeds and ocasionally vegetables/fruits. Is there any plan like a list on what should i feed a cockatiel every day?

I don't think you'd need a meal plan, just as long as their getting lots of fresh foods everyday. The main things I feed my bird in a day are: pellets, freshly diced veggies, sometimes grains mixed in and it's usually whatever I have on hand, a treat/millet for foraging and a bit of fruit. However, take my advice with a grain of salt as, I'm not a cockatiel expert so I'd wait for a second opinion from someone who knows what cockatiels need in their diet.

I agree with Tiel Feathers, adding more veggie options, maybe some sprouts , or freeze dried things too. You can offer veggies daily alongside the pellets and seeds.

If you need help or a guide for the veggies, I like to use this to reference when choosing the ingredients and finding a good balanced veggie mix;
