Prestige Amazon Parrot 1kg

Prestige Amazon Parrot 1kg

Prestige Amazon Parrot 1kg from Versele-Laga is an enriched seed mixture made specifically for feeding South American Amazon parrots. Part of the Prestige Premium range, it is a seed mix "with an extra touch" for South African bird keepers who want a food designed around these lively, medium-sized parrots.

Key Benefits

• Made for Amazon parrots: Versele-Laga formulated this mix specifically for Amazon parrots rather than as a general parrot food.
• Enriched seed mixture: The seed blend is enriched, so it offers more than a plain seed mix.
• Premium Prestige quality: The Prestige Premium line describes this mix as having an extra touch for South American parrots.
• Suits their natural eating habits: Wild Amazons eat fruit, seeds, flowers and nectar, and they will eat grain when they find it. A seed-based mix fits naturally into that kind of diet.
• A dedicated alternative to table scraps: A proper seed mixture helps you avoid relying on human food for a bird known for its big appetite.

How to Use

Offer Prestige Amazon Parrot as your bird's dedicated seed mixture. Amazon parrots have a hearty appetite, especially for human food, so do not overfeed them with table scraps. Their own food should stay the focus of what they eat.

Suitable For

• Owners of boisterous, playful and outgoing Amazons who need an everyday seed mix made for the species.
• Homes with male Amazons, which often show "macho" behaviour such as flaring their tail feathers, pinning their eyes and strutting across the floor or tabletop.
