Great value, lovebird transitioned fairly quickly to the pellets. Same color pellets, same size, quality seems to be fine too. Healthier than feedings seeds all the time.

Birds enjoy their seeds.

I have two cockatiels. For purchased food I always buy ZuPreem, just based on their reputation. The birds like it and are healthy and happy. I'm sure there are other brands just as good or better, maybe cheaper.This pellet size is much better for cockatiels, at least for mine. When I had ZuPreem's various pellet foods made for cockatiels there was a lot of waste. They would bite into the pellet and the majority of it would fly off; my guess is less than 20% ended up in their stomach. This size pellet still gives their jaw exercise with FAR less waste. They've never complained to me!

These have become my new favorite for the birds. Great value and quality.

The cuttlebone holder works fine with normal sized cuttlebone. However, the cuttlebone sent is way too big & will have to be shaved down in order work properly. (See photo). I guess it’s better to have too much than too little!

I have haphazardly been introducing a variety of pellet foods to my flock of five rescue parrots for several years and to no avail. From my cockatiels to my sun conure to my African grey they all turn their beaks up at the thought of anything but a seed mix. My "Bougee birds" seemed to be winning the game until I introduced them to the ZuPreem Natural Bird Pellets. To the astonishment of my wife and I, they started crunching and actually eating the pellets on their first introduction! I think with ZuPreem's pellet formula we have finally "cracked the code" and I am happy to report that we are witnessing the impossible - our birds are weening off their seed diet. This product will become a staple in our home.

My little is girl Misty only wants to eat this food. It's hard to get her to eat a more balanced parakeet food. Misty just loves this colorful and pleasing food so much!!

Peep, peep....Cockatiel Pablo here. If mom won't feed me seeds, these are my next favorite meal. She mixes these with the veggie pellets and keeps them in my cage at all times. My parakeet brother doesn't like them as much as I do, but he was raised on seeds first, so he has to learn to love it.
