Lovebird Diet Basics: What to Offer Every Day

Lovebirds are small, active parrots, and a steady daily routine makes feeding easier. This guide covers the lovebird diet basics that many bird owners in India follow. For advice made for your bird, please ask an avian vet.
The basics of a lovebird diet
A lovebird diet usually combines a quality seed mix or pellets, a little fresh vegetable, occasional treats and clean water. Variety helps keep mealtimes interesting.

Seed mix and pellets
Pick a mix made for small parrots and check the ingredient list. CONGO's herbal seed mixes come in 900 gm and 1 kg packs. See the bird food collection.
Fresh vegetables and fruit
Offer small, washed pieces and remove leftovers after a few hours. Ask your vet which items suit your bird.
Treats
Treats work best in small amounts, for example during training. CONGO's Fruitoze fruit sticks are one option for small birds.
Water and cleanliness
Change water daily and wash bowls often.

Mistakes to avoid
- Refilling over old husks.
- Offering too many treats.
- Changing food suddenly.
- Leaving wet food in the cage for long.
