5 FAQs
What is the ideal daily diet for a Red Fronted Macaw?
A balanced macaw diet should consist of 60–70% pellets or complete food, 20–30% fresh fruits/veg, and 5–10% seeds, nuts, or treats.
Can I mix pellets with seed blends?
Yes. Blending Harrison's pellets with a seed mix like Tidymix provides variety while supporting a complete nutritional profile. Always ensure fresh produce is added, too.
What's the benefit of soaking or sprouting food?
Soaked and sprouted mixes, like Tidymix Pulse & Rice or Healthy Quick Sprouting Seed Mix, are more digestible and packed with active enzymes and vitamins.
Are these foods suitable for other macaws?
Absolutely. These options also work for Military, Severe, Blue-and-Gold, and Scarlet Macaws. Just monitor portion sizes and adjust based on individual activity levels.
How do I transition my macaw to pellets?
Gradually introduce pellets by mixing them into your bird's favourite foods, reducing seeds over time. Start with mixed options like Sensible Seeds to ease the switch.
