Do you keep your parrot food available 24/7?

When you feed your parrot do you keep the food in his or her dish all day or do you feed your bird like a dog ie: 2 times a day? Please let me know. Thanks...

Sterretjie has access to her food from when she wakes up until I get home from work. I then throw away all the food and make her a new batch for dinner.

I dont have any food in her sleep cage.;)

i keep it in all day, birds pick at there food throughout the day. unless its something that spoils like chicken or egg, i leave that in for an hour or two, usually in the morning when birds are at their hungriest x

I remove all food in the cage at bedtime, then start out fresh in the am. My avain vet suggested I do it this way. Birds in the wild do not eat at night either.

Our birdies get all fresh food in the morning - sprouts, fruits, veggies, pellets - then they get spouts and fruit or veggies at dinner time (and usually part of our dinner, too). They have pellets available at night, but those are usually undisturbed in the morning.

I leave Bella's food in her cage at all times unless it is fresh food that spoils. Usually I will take that out after an hour or so!
