Harrison`s Adult Lifetime Coarse Organic Parrot Food

My vet put my parrot on this comeplete diet due to many vitamin deficiencies from being on a seed diet. The result a diet not suited to my Jardine was feather plucking around his crop area. After many tests and illnesses being ruled out, the vet narrowed the issue down to his diet. Harrisons has been a lifesaver. After the diet change and some supplements initially my parrot is in full health and it shows in his plumage and general wellbeing. This is solely down to harrisons and I cant recommend it highly!

When we originally bought this product for our blue fronted amazon, at the advise of our avian vet, he was pretty unimpressed at the prospect of eating it. However, we introduced it to his diet a second time a month or so later, and now he really likes it. Hes developed a wee routine of picking up a pellet, taking it to the water dish, giving it a dunk, and eating. He is some cookie.

When I adopted my parrot, he had been eating seeds and was looking kind of dishevelled. After switching him over to these pellets his feathers, over the course of a few months, improved significantly, both in strength, color and luster. There is no doubt in my mind that he is much healthier this way, and as a nice bonus he is a lot more interested in training when his treats are different from his normal food. I would recommend anyone to try to switch their dry seed-eating parrots over to some kind of pellets, and Harrisons is a good brand to try.

Harrisons Lifetime seems to be based in corn but there is one big problem: the corn here is not completely grinded and is left in solid pointy and even sharpened pieces plastered into the pellet... which is a problem because a caged bird cannot digest at all these rocklike debris since in captivity they never care to use or even have the needed grit for this task so as a result my african grey had long painful digestions -you can clearly see them having cramps after they eat- that ended with pooping the corn slices stained in BLOOD... I tried the high potency coarce variation whichs seems to have much less solid debris but it is very VERY heavy with fats and the poor bird again had long difficult digestions so I was forced to change of brand even if this is high quality stuff. Moral of the tale: learn to properly grind your food Harrison if you even care -however my parrot loves the harrison power treats, but unfortunately it is not a maintenance food and again very heavy with fats-

I bought a packet hoping to ensure a good diet for my Yellow Naped Amazon who likes her fruit but not so many greens. The little madam refuses to eat them. I will persist in offering them to her in the hope she will accept them in her own good time.. Such a diva.

My Senegal parrot loves this and uses it to balance his fruit and veg diet. I would highly recommend it after first starting with Kaytee exact

My grey loves it now, wee bit choosy at first as African greys can be.

Cant fault it, would recommend...

A great product, my African Grey loves it. Only took one day to move off a seed diet onto a complete pellet diet.

We were recommended this product by our vet when we first became Casper's custodians. He was overweight and was in poor condition. The vet is very pleased with his condition now. Although it can be used as a complete diet (and Casper would probably be happy with just this) we give him this in the evenings along with some fresh fruit and he has Hawaiian pasta in the mornings with fresh fruit and veg. He tends to ignore the veg unless it is pea pods. I think he has a sweet beak.

I have been feeding my African Grey on this for several years.It is quite expensive but I know I can rely on it because the bird is in wonderful health without any vitamin supplements.

She took a little while, but now she munches is right down and it's very good for her :)

My grey loves this. The best thing is to know it is also good for her.

My vet, a parrot specialist, put me on to this 10 yrs ago my blue fronted amazon took to it in 2 days & has loved it ever since. She is in prime condition & only has a nut or seed for a treet.Expensive, but worth it.

I wasn't entirely happy with my conures diet. However I was more concerned with my cockatiels diet as she wouldn't touch anything other than dry seed (not even soaked/sprouted) despite years of trying. On a vets advice we removed all her seed as he said she wouldn't allow herself to starve, he was wrong and we had to revert back to giving her seed along with the other stuff we have been trying every day for 5 years to get her to eat.I bought the wrong size and had to break the dry pellets up for them, my fault not a problem with the pellets.Full of doubt, and KNOWING I wouldnt in a million years get my cockatiel to touch the stuff I followed Liz Wilsons article on a week off work so I could monitor them better.I mashed the pellets up with the seed. Loads of seed in the cockatiels mix and a bit less in the conures as he is alot more experimental- neither bird touched a thing. I gave a teaspoonful of plain seed later on because of this.Day 2. didnt touch a thing. Bit of seed again in evening.Day 3, Offered both birds dry pellets in a seperate dish as well. To my huge suprise my 'tiel started picking at it.Day 4, conure still refusing to touch pellets but delicately picking seed out of mash. cockatiel picking very unhappily at pellets but eating enough to reassure me she isn't on a suicide mission again.Day 5-7 Conure eating it happily now, cockatiel eating better when broken down into smaller pieces but still not keen. Think she will be better when I get the right sized pellets.They have been on this about 2 weeks now, Conures feathers looking better but no change to cockatiel. Both still have fresh foods, tidymix sprouting mix and a small amount of seeds but fuss pot cockatiel still wont touch any. Will stick to this product now I've found it, at least I know shes now getting more nutrients.Long review but worth it to say perservere..... If my cockatiel who only ate dry seed for 5 1/2 years after weaning despite being offered a variety of things, on a daily basis, pr

An excellent product,my Parrot took to it straightaway,we thought that we would have problems with him accepting it, but no he changed over to it without any trouble!

We got fed up with our blue/gold macaw throwing his food out of his bowls so decided to try a completed parrot food. Not only is there much less waste, he seems to really like it, and his feathers and mood have improved after just 2 weeks. He is screaming much less and is much friendlier; he will now come out of his cage to me and not just my husband. This is expensive but i would say worth every penny!! I am now going to order a larger bag!

Both of my Eclectus parrots took to this new food instantly and enjoy it greatly. They are fourteen and fifteen years old ,so I had my doubts as to wether they would accept it.

After being told that the seed I was feeding my african grey was not good for him, I deceided to try the food recommeded for him.At first he wasn't intrested, but I mixed it in with his fruit.Now he loves it. (so do my dogs). Ive noticed that he no longer throws food on the floor but actually eats it all.Thank you

Our grey is so fussy and refused everything we gave him, he had mainly a seed diet. He had really poor feather condition which was gradually getting worse. We took him to a avian specialist vet who said he would die very soon if we did not change his deit. She told us we needed to put him onto Harrisons. After a long winded battle we have finally got him eating Harrisons and what an improvement it has made to his condition! He is also more willing to try fruit and veg which he point blankly refused before! I strongly belive this is a life save for parrot sunflower junkies and reccomended anyone to get their parrot onto this before its too late!

My bird has much better feathers and appearance after starting on Harrisons. The conversion was really easy and she now prefers them to seed. A great product and well worth the money. Our birds deserve the best and Harrisons are the best

Now we know the parrots get a balanced meal, they also get some of the seed nut food but that is now more a special treat.It did require some encouragement, The conure we have when he started his whole personality changed he is now calm, does not scream that much anymore, and became very cuddely, he is not the scared of hands, screechy bird anymore that we got. He did settle on his old diet but since he gets this, he eats his portion in the morning and eats a wee bit of his at night, no more waste either (or very little as with the seed and nut diet)The amazon is not that easy to change but am gave the pallets as a treat first, he loved them slowly changed, he is looking sooooo much better and he is a very happy playfull bird.

He Loves it!!

Very fast delivery, well in date so very fresh and well packaged.

Started Gladys on Harrisons Pepper Lifetime, to get her off seeds and I now feed her this as well for a bit of variety - not that she hasn't got enough variety what with the bananas, the apple, the green beans, the lettuce, the peppers, the tomatoes, the corn on the cob, the okra, the chillis......and not forgetting the occasional piece of finger of course.

After having several health problems we were advised to put Billy on a complete diet rather than seed. As a sunflower seed junkie used to bright & varied food we were quite worried when he literally took one look at the bowl full of nuggets and then glanced to our rabbits litter tray!! Determined to get him to try them we offered him small amounts each day which he faithfully flung out of his bowl one by one for a week. Eventually he picked up a piece that had broken and got a taste of it, his eyes starting pinning and he was acting like he'd just had one of his favourite treats! since then he has really taken to this food, you can tell he enjoys them as rather than having a chomp and moving onto the next thing he takes his time with them nibbling and tasting each bit.He has been on the food just under a month and we already see the difference, his feathers are gorgeous, the yellow in his cheeks particularly and he produces a lot less dander, he also has considerably less pin feathers.This really is a brilliant product for our Amazon, I just wish they would have appealled to the playful side of parrots making them a different colour or shape, the rabbits still give him funny looks when he eats his dinner!!

My African Grey aged 5 had an addiction to sunflower seeds which was not good for his health and wellbeing. He looked at these nuggets with a very sideways look and refused to touch them until I took one and ate it. There was no stopping him after that. He has fresh vegetables and fruit . He is healthy, good natured and a great companion which I attribute to his diet. He has taken to this product fairly easily. I don't mind them either!

Our parrots, two Bluefronted Amazons and a Senegal, love this food! Ther feathers look really good and shiny and we have had no health issues whatsoever since we started serving Harrison's.
