I've just learned that one of Ralph's favorite treats has been discontinued-- Kaytee Nutra-Puffs, tropical fruit flavored. He liked them so much, he'd even eat the orange ones-- and Ralph hates most anything that's orange. Now, I need to come up with something else I can offer him instead, preferably something similar to the Nutra-Puffs. Does anyone have suggestions?

I have never tried the nutra puffs, but something that might be a similar texture to try is LaFebers Popcorn Nutriberries treats.

My cockatoo loves them. Good luck finding a substitute, I know what a headache it is to try finding another option for something that works well!!

I have been looking for the Nutra Puffs for over a year now. I found out that Kaytee discontinued them awhile ago and I have been buying any existing stock that I could find from online stores and sellers in the USA and Canada. Now I can't find them at all. Kaytee claims that they discontinued them because of low sales. I find this hard to believe, since every single store that I have contacted say that they have tried to get more of them from Kaytee, for the many customers that have requested them. They were my bird's favorite food treat and it's sad to watch her look for them in her dish and then look at me like "where are they"?! I can only suggest that you and as many parrot owners as you can get, write to Kaytee and ask them to please bring them back. I myself, have already written to Kaytee on more than one occasion and they just keep sending me coupons for other products! :greenyellow:
