Here is our guide to feeding your Caique.
A Caique?s diet should be approximately 60-80% pellets / complete food and then the remainder a mixture of
fruits, nuts, seeds, sprouting seed, treats, vegetables and other treats.
Pelleted and Completed Food
These give a Caique all the nutrients they need in their diet...
- Lafeber NutriBerries for Small Parrots has 40 essential nutrients your Caique needs to stay fit and healthy.
- Fiory Micropills by Johnston and Jeff offer a tasty maintenance diet for smaller birds.
Sprouting Seed / Soaking Seed
Let you cook up a tasty and nutritious meal for your Parrot. Simply let it soak for a couple of days in warm winter, rinsing occasionally, then serve soaking seed up to your feathered friend.
Vegetables
Provide your Caique with wholesome vitamins and minerals. These are kale, broccoli, sprouts, spinach and carrot are all readily accepted.
Fruits
Fun to eat and super tasty they are packed full of vitamins for your bird?s overall wellbeing. Offer chopped up in a bowl or place on a fruit skewer. Remember to remove any uneaten fruit after a couple of hours. Popular fruits include?
- Banana chips
- Mango
- Coconut
- Papaya
- Pineapple
- Cranberry
Seed
Aren?t the boring mixes they used to be. They contain a range of ingredients to keep mealtimes interesting.
Parrot Premium Professionalhas been developed to our exact requirements with beak-wateringly good foods inside like rowanberries and melon seeds.
Nuts
Caiques enjoy many types of nuts, but may need help cracking open those with harder shells such as walnuts.
- Walnuts
- Macadamia nuts
- Cedar nuts
- Palm nuts
Other Treats
Should only be given occasionally, perhaps as a reward during training sessions or to reward them for other good behaviours.
Palm Nut Fruit Extract Oil is a delicious treat for all Parrots. It?s a useful supplement for breeding Caiques and helps to improve feather condition.
Other tasty treats include Parrot Cafe, Bird Greens and Sugar Cane.

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 Caique?s food bowl, as many enjoy dunking their food before eating it. Always have fresh water available.
