Guys Iām excited! Not something Iāve been able to say about parrot husbandry lately.
Ive given Parker a good chop diet for years now. But im bored and looking for something new. And I found it! Parkerās latest chop batch I had run out and this was the perfect chance to take the plunge into this ugly fruit craze.
Turns out much of these services are based on primarily on bumper crops (excessive fruit/veg being produced on the farm) or grocery store rejects that are too big or too small.
And you can get some interesting stuff. Just read tonight about someone who got prickly pear. So itās a fabulous opportunity to introduce new and interesting items to the birds diet.
My first box is arriving tomorrow. Nothing super exciting this round: cucumber, plums, celery, mango, satsuma oranges, romaine, summer squash and yellow onions. Onions aside, I can make a decent chop base for him to last the week until the next delivery next week.
Will keep you all updated. This should be a fun ride!
