So I use Hagan Tropican and Tropimix for my flock. Is that a good choice for Eclectus? I know they have special dietary needs, so I want to make sure. I am having a hard time finding choice Eclectus foods online.

I don't feed a lot of pellets to my eclectus they are strictly fresh fruit & veg, sprouts, raw nuts, a small amount of seed & pellets mixed together. I do also use the pellets you mentioned when they are available.

In fact IMO eclectus do far better health wise on a fresh diet. If your chasing seed mix to sprout a good place to start is a health food shop.

@Pedro

what fruits and vegetables are suitable for Eclectus?

Can you list down seeds suitable for Eclectus health?

Can you list down sprouted seed detail, which sprouted seeds are beneficial?

I know I post this site almost every day, it has a great range of foods that you can incorprate into your eclectus daily diet. I have fed these foods to my eclectus for the past 20 years with great success.

Eclectus are like us the like a variety of foods.
