While this mix is complete, supplementing with fresh fruits and vegetables is recommended for a balanced diet.

Troubleshooting

Bird is not eating the mix.

Try mixing the new food gradually with the old food over several days. Ensure the bird has easy access to the food and water, and observe if there are any environmental stressors that might be impacting its appetite.

This is normal, but ensure that the overall diet is balanced. Supplement the diet with additional seeds if needed.
