5 FAQs
What kind of food should I feed my Plum Headed Parakeet?
A balanced diet includes a high-quality seed mix or organic pellets such as Harrison's or Tidymix, fresh vegetables and leafy greens, occasional fruits and sprouted grains, and a calcium source like cuttlebone or mineral block.
Do Plum Headed Parakeets need daily out-of-cage time?
Yes—these active parakeets benefit from daily free-flight time, social interaction, and time on play stands or tabletop gyms to stay mentally and physically stimulated.
What toys are best for Plum Heads?
They enjoy a mix of shreddable toys, ladders, swings, bells, and foraging puzzles. Be sure to rotate toys weekly to keep their environment exciting.
Are supplements necessary?
Supplements such as calcium + D3, feather sprays, and vitamin drops can be especially beneficial during moulting, times of stress, or when feeding a seed-heavy diet.
What size cage does a Plum Headed Parakeet need?
A cage measuring at least 24" wide x 24" deep x 30" high with ½" bar spacing is ideal to provide enough space for movement, play, and enrichment.
