FAQs – Feeding Your Severe Macaw
What is the best daily food for a Severe Macaw?
A blend of pellets like Askio Nature (60–70%), seed mix (20%), and fresh fruits and vegetables (10–20%) is ideal. Rotate options to maintain interest and variety.
Can I feed treats from the food range?
Yes. Look for NutriBerries or fruit-blended pellets that serve as both nutritional food and enrichment.
How much should I feed my Severe Macaw daily?
On average, a Severe Macaw consumes ½ to ¾ cup of food per day, split between morning and evening feedings. Adjust for activity level and size.
Do I need to give supplements if I feed pellets?
If using high-quality complete pellets, additional vitamins may not be required daily. However, calcium and feather supplements may still be beneficial during moulting or breeding periods.
Are these foods safe for other parrots?
Yes. This selection is also suitable for other medium-sized parrots like Hahns Macaws, Pionus, and African Greys.
