5 FAQs
What is the best type of food for Moustached Parakeets?
A complete diet includes:
- A base of organic pellets or premium seed mix
- Fresh, chopped vegetables and leafy greens daily
- Occasional fruit and herbs
- Added sprouting or soaking seeds for variety and nutritional boost
Are seed-only diets okay for Moustached Parakeets?
No, while they enjoy seeds, seed-only diets lack calcium and vitamin A. Mix seeds with pellets and supplement with fresh produce for a balanced routine.
How do I transition from seed to pellets?
Start with a mix of seed and pellets, slowly increasing the pellet ratio over 2–3 weeks. Offer pellets first thing in the morning when your bird is most hungry.
Should I include sprouting or soaking foods?
Yes! Sprouted and soaked pulses provide live enzymes, extra nutrients, and variety, helping mimic natural foraging behaviours.
How much food should I give my Moustached Parakeet daily?
Most birds eat ½ to ¾ cup of food daily, divided into dry (pellets/seeds) and fresh produce. Adjust based on weight, activity level, and seasonal needs.
