Great healthy pellet for parrots
Great bird pellet for picky eaters. My yellow nape had become sickly from 20+ years of eating seed mixes and the vet convinced me to change my birds diet. I tried several brands and he wouldnât touch it. I bought this pellet type and used some juice to make it more appealing. After I got him to start eating this I completely removed all seeds and never went back since. I quickly stopped wetting the pellets with juice and he was now eating the pellets dry. Roudybush greatly improved his health. All symptoms of liver disease went away and his skin and feathers became noticeably better.The Roudybush small pellet is a good size for African greys and amazon parrots. The maintenance variety is his basic stable and some times I provide the low fat and the senior diet. The maintenance pellet in 10 pound bag is most economical. The price is almost half of what the local pet shop charges and seems to be fresher. Keep it in a cool dry area.

Great quality bird feed
Roudybush was reccomended by our veterinarian as an excellent bird food to feed our parrots. It has no food coloring, and I don’t have to worry about my birds eating only pellets of certain colors, and discarding pellets of other colors!

Best parrot food on the market, very good price
Roudybush is the best parrot food you can buy without spending a fortune. There are some very high end brands like Harrison’s which are just as good, but you’ll pay a lot more for them.Most commercial bird foods are wholly seed based, which is way too fatty for parrots. Other commercial pellet based feeds have sugars and coloring added which isn’t natural and definitely isn’t good for your feathered friend.Roudybush was carefully formulated and crafted from high quality ingredients, and designed to provide the optimal balanced diet for parrots. Tom Roudybush spent 16 years of nutritional research in the Department of Avian Sciences at the University of California, Tom studied a variety of birds, including 10 years of research on the nutritional requirements of companion birds. Mr. Roudybush has generated most of the published nutritional research in pet birds, and the research flocks of Orange-winged Amazons at the University have been maintained on nothing but Roudybush pellets since 1981; no other population of psittacines has been maintained on a commercially available, formulated diet for such a long period of time.My parrots are a part of my family, and when I read studies indicating that a seed based diet can cut their lifespan in half, I began researching the best food available. I did a ton of research, read a ton of study data on the subject, and came to the conclusion that Roudybush would provide the most health and longevity in my parrots.

Robbie the Caique LOVES Roudybush!
I canât *personally* say Roudybush is delicious, but I gave it a 5-star rating for taste because our black headed caique absolutely loves it! Heâs been fed Roudybush his whole life and heâs now 13 years old, in perfect health, and his vet says heâll probably live forever. Seriously, Roudybush is amazing food. It was developed by an avian nutritionist, Tom Roudybush, based on his 16 years of nutritional research in the Department of Avian Sciences at the University of California, Davis. It is THE BEST food for your bird, bar none. Of course, you should talk to your vet before switching your birdâs diet and learn the correct way to transition from one type of food to another so your bird wonât be stressed by the change and/or reject the new food. The other piece of advice I have is that you might want to experiment with different sizes of pellets (plus or minus one size from the recommended size for the species) to get the best âfitâ and minimize waste. For example, the bag recommends âMiniâ for caiques, but thatâs too small for our bird, so we feed him âSmallâ pellets and thatâs perfect for him.

Great Product
Iâve been using Roudy Bush for 10 years, since Iâve had my bronze wing pionis. I only use this a part of her diet, but it lasts well over a year. I take out enough feed for a couple weeks and keep the rest frozen. Amazon has the best pricing by far.

My bird loves her food
Fast delivery, package good. No problem. I actually store her food in the freezer and give to her as her food dish needs it. That keeps it fresh and it doesnât grow and bugs.
