Wild birds require high saturated fat foods like nuts for energy to fly, build nests, raise babies, and interact with their flock mates. In captivity Conures, Amazon's, and Macaws should have areas to fly, exercise, climb, and use safe real-wood branches to perch and chew on. I never feed my parrots pellets because they contain seed oils like canola, safflower, and soybean oil used as preservatives. Seed oils bind with healthy cholesterol and can lead to obesity, and arterial/venous plaques causing strokes and heart attacks. A variety of fresh foods as seen in your video are key elements to health and longevity in our lifetime avian companions. Nuts like sunflower, almond, pistachio, and walnuts are also high in essential trace minerals required to keep up with the energy demands all parrot species have. New research about saturated fats is not generally known by most avian vets, so always do your own research. Thank you for sharing this video.

Should I feed my sun conure raw or cooked rice? How about other grains? Thank you for your time!

[@ourfriendlyanimals]

@@annakinyanjui7079 I’ve only fed my conure cooked rice. Both cooked and uncooked rice are generally known to be safe for parrots. While both types are known to be safe, some researchers have stated that uncooked rice may harm birds’ stomachs by drying them out and harboring bacteria. This is why I don’t take that risk with my bird and I simply feed him cooked rice as a treat from time to time. He does love it!

I have sunconure with me now

[@ourfriendlyanimals]

Take good care of your friend.

[@romarioalvarez7397]

I guess this can also apply to other conures right?

[@ourfriendlyanimals]

Of course. They’re closely related. They can eat the same foods. Just make sure you do your own research before feeding your bird anything, because some foods are toxic.

Why would you ever consider supporting feeding your bird anything with soybeans in them?

[@ourfriendlyanimals]

Hi. Which food in particular are you asking about?

[@beaksfeathersaviaries8479]

@@ourfriendlyanimals, the processed foods you are promoting have soy in them. Why would you ever consider feeding these products or saying they are healthy for people's birds?

[@ourfriendlyanimals]

@@beaksfeathersaviaries8479 Not all of them. The Intune pellets have a very small amount. As long as a bird’s fed a varied diet, it should be healthy.

[@beaksfeathersaviaries8479]

@@ourfriendlyanimals lol It is listed as one of the first ingredients on the list, so it is one of the main impedance and any amount of soy is detrimental the the behaviour and their well being

[@ourfriendlyanimals]

@@beaksfeathersaviaries8479 Too much of anything is bad. If you give some pellets as just a portion of a varied diet, your bird will stay healthy and happy with no abnormal behavior, like mine.
