What should I feed my cockatiel?

Avoid feeding seed as the bulk of your cockatiel as it often results in obesity - a common and serious health condition among pet cockatiels. Instead, feed approximately 50% of the diet as good quality pellets, 30% budgie/cockatiel seed mix (unless your bird is on a diet), 20% fresh vegetables and a small amount of fruit as a treat.
