Find out more about Lovebird food with our Lovebird feeding guide.
A Lovebird?s diet needs to be as mixed as possible. The base diet, approx 60-80%, should be pelleted or complete food, with the remainder being seed and sprouting seed, fruits, nuts, vegetables and other treats.
We?d also encourage you to place food in foraging toys for your Lovebird to find with their amazing foraging skills, as well as placing some in their feeding dish.

Tasty Treats for Lovebirds
Please Note: We would always advise buying the smallest bag/pack possible to trial your Parrot with. It can take some time and persistence to introduce a new food. It may be worth having a second bowl of water next to your Lovebird?s food bowl, as many enjoy dunking their food before eating it. Always have fresh water available.
