Parakeet food forms the foundation of a healthy and active life for your bird. The right nutrition contributes to a shiny plumage, strong immunity and a cheerful character. What a parakeet needs depends on its species, age and living conditions. Explore our full range.

A traditional choice for parakeets is a seed mix: a varied combination of grains and seeds. These mixes are rich in fibre and fatty acids, but can become unbalanced if your parakeet only picks out the tastiest seeds. A balanced mix, such as Witte Molen Foxtail Millet Sprays, is a good foundation.
Pellets are a complete alternative. Each pellet contains the same nutrients, preventing deficiencies. Harrison’s High Potency Fine is a good example and is often used for young or recovering birds.
In addition to the main diet, you can occasionally treat your parakeet to healthy snacks. Think of fresh vegetables such as cucumber, or special treats like Back Zoo Nature Fruit Cups. Egg food, such as Cédé Egg Food Large Parakeet/Parrot, is also a valuable supplement, for example during moulting or breeding season.
The nutritional needs of parakeets change with the seasons.
Versele-Laga NutriBird B14 Maintenance Food is a suitable option for daily use across different seasons.
