- MARIO L. DARIOGreat healthy product. No problem getting my Grey to eat it. it's her goto snack,Great Product! Parrot devours it.
- C. SquiresQuality and apparently very tastyI am allergic to a lot of grass pollens, and real grain or seed-based diets set off my allergies (its not the feathers, its the pollen and dust from the feed!). This pelleted food impressed me as being healthier for both me, and my birds.
Parrots really should not be eating a lot of seeds, or the mainly seed-based diets, because that is not their natural diet and some of them eat too much of it (too high in starch) and become malnourished. Actually, they like to crack the shells of seeds and that is probably why some parrots go crazy for seed-based bird foods - and become unhealthy. Sort of like humans and buttered popcorn, potato chips and dips. :)
This is a high quality pelleted parrot food, and they eat almost every bit (some dust or bits spilled outside the cage are lost, but nothing like all the shells on the floor, or the claw-fulls of fancy colored pellets that one of my birds likes to throw - like a little baseball pitcher).
If I don't have time to give them fresh or cooked treats, they can thrive on this pelleted food alone and never tire of it.
So it is clean, easy to feed, approved by all my birds, and is reasonably priced - -no more than some of the other brands. Their feathers shine and have wonderful color after a few months on this feed.
I like it that Tom Roudybush did his graduate studies at UC Davis at the famous animal nutrition department, and then set out to produce one of the most wholesome but reasonably-priced commercial bird foods. It still outperforms the other pellets, even if it doesn't look like eye-candy in the bowl. It is minimally processed, wholesome, and apparently tasty to parrots.
The medium sized pellets are meant for my amazon and pionus parrots, but sometimes they like the small or mini which are more "seed sized" and sometimes even the smaller birds enjoy gnawing on the larger sizes. It is funny to see a small bird clutching a chunk of large pellet in one foot and gnawing at it.
BTW, if your bird is not used to pelleted food, and you want to get it to eat a new food, introduce very gradually. Also, empty the dish every day -- you don't want to find that the dish was full of shells of other seeds plus pellets, and your bird is going hungry because it refuses the strange new pellet. You might clean the dish in the morning and put just a few pellets in as a treat in the morning - -some birds pick them up as toys. Later in the day, add a day's worth of their old food on top of the pellets -- if any are left. For some birds, you might want to gradually increase pellets (only after signs that the bird does pick up and nibble at pellets) very very slowly, over a month or so, while decreasing the other foods.
You might smear a tiny bit of peanut butter on a medium or large pellet and offer it as a "toy" (sneaky, but effective, if your bird likes peanut butter, as most parrots do). When your parrot clearly sees this as a special treat, you can then switch to this as its new food more quickly.
My birds were raised with all sorts of foods, so are not picky, but given a choice, now will pick out the Roudybush pellets and eat them first! Fun to watch them hurrying to the food bowl and lingering over a size that fits nicely in their claw when they want to pick something up to eat as "hand food." :)
I have not been able to buy Roudybush locally,and just bought a small bag to tide us over until next week when I will order a 10 lb bag. - gina shepardRoudyBushMy birds seem to like this, they are very picky! Healthy addition to their daily diet.
- ScubanutSame food we bought from bird store but SOMETIMES cheaper!UPDATE:I just went to purchase another bag and really wish (with 20/20 hindsight!) that I'd bought more! The great price I found weeks ago is gone! Instead of eighteen dollars it's now twenty-five for the same bag! I know prices fluctuate a little bit, but thirty nine percent in six weeks?? It's still good food, but I may start looking at other brands...
I never thought of looking on Amazon for this before! It's the exact same pellet type food we've fed our parrots for the last five years, only instead of paying nearly $30 per bag BEFORE tax I now can get them here! Delivered to my door without the time and fuel costs of driving across town. Saving the tax is a bonus! Our birds like these, they offer complete nutrition and we've never had any health issues with any of our birds. The breeder we bought them from prefers Rowdybush so we've kept them on it since they were weaned, and two of our birds we fed the "baby formula" version of this starting from just a few weeks old.
These pellets have a good long shelf life so are very convenient for us to use. We don't have to make a trip every week or two to get more that way. (of course, now we don't have to travel any further than the mailbox!)
There are really only two negatives to Rowdybush, and the same might be true for ANY pellet foods. First, you sometimes can get infested with flour moths hidden inside the grain that don't hatch until after you open the bag. They are a real annoyance and both have ruined a bunch of our food and driven us crazy! Best thing we've found to help avoid this is we put every bag in our deep freezer (kept at 0 F/-18 C) for at least two days before we ever open the bag. Don't know if there are other ways but it's worked for us.
The other issue is a real puzzler. All of our parrots seem to love putting large amounts of their food into their water bowls. If you don't catch it right away and let the water go overnight with the food in it it somehow ferments in some fashion and makes a very disgusting smelling mess! This is probably true of other pellet foods as well, I just don't know for sure... It always amazes me how odorless pellets smell SO unpleasant when none of the individual ingredients start to smell until they physically start to rot. In any case, we are entirely satisfied with this product, especially since it comes in four sizes so everyone can get the best size for every size parrot from a green cheeked conure, sun conure, Hahn's macaw (smallest macaw breed) to our severe macaw. There's also a bigger size pellet for the bigger guys. - SojournerGreat pellet for my Quaker.My male Quaker loves these pellets. I’ve tried other types of bird feed but he is a one pellet “man.”
I freeze them and take out enough for about 2 weeks. They freeze well.
I’ve ground them up and put them in Birdie Bread -works great!
Ingredients are good. The pellet can be snapped in half - he eats the medium size pellet but I plan to try him on the smaller ones. - June MooreRoudyBush for Pepper!!!!My African Grey loves this maintenance food by RoudyBush!! I think it’s the best food out there and size and shape is just right for Pepper! I like everything about it and the maintenance kind is so economical too. Pepper likes this food and the smells of vitamins and minerals added to the finest ingredients he needs to grow and flourish must excite him. He eats all evidence and cleans his dish.
- Isla SkyeBest bird food per my vet, with resealable bag.Veterinarian recommended healthy pet food for my cockatiel who eats it up! Great product that you can keep airtight in the bag when you are done getting some out.
