Hi Kelsih11, from all the research I've done and from speaking to his avian vet, I prepare a veggie and fruit mix (Broccoli, butternut squash, peas, carrots, mangos, blueberries and sometimes corn. I chop them up in a blender and freeze about 2 weeks supply that I defrost for him in the mornings. In the afternoon he gets harrisons adult lifetime fine pellets(green label) and at night he gets a bit of a seed mix. Everything i give him is organic and i eat the bad stuff...lol. When I first got him, I was told that the harrison pellets he should have should be the High potency fine(orange label) and after about 6 months then he was switched to the green label. His seed mix should be about 5% of his diet being that they can be very fatty but sometimes I don't always do that being that he loves them so much. As far as toys are concerned, he has tons of them but doesn't play with them as much. His wings are not clipped so he spends his time following my wife, son or I around the house. I will recommend a rope perch for him to sleep with just so that he has more comfort when he sleeps but have different size perches in the cage which is recommended for good feet health. Rock pebblers are prone to having problems with their feet and sometimes eyes. Anyway, that's all I have for you but reach out whenever you want and I'll help as best as i can. If you go to youtube and type in rock pebbler midori, you'll see a few videos of him. Anyway....good luck!

Thank you JerseyWendy!
Thanks for all the info! I've been looking at types of pellets and such and a lot of them are for cockatiels or conures, but Harrisons makes sense.
Definitely going to make lots of veggies and such. Which Seed mixes do you use?
I was just told by the breeder that she has 5 on egg so I should be able to pick out my baby within a month! SO excited!
 
I give him organic sunflower seeds and walnuts that I pick up from whole foods. Sometimes he gets these seed balls that I pick up from petco but the name of the product is escaping me right now. Did you see the videos on YouTube? Remember, it's rock pebbler midori and you'll be able to see some of his videos. Thank you Wendy
 
Yeah I looked up the videos and he's a doll! I am getting so antsy waiting for my baby! I've been looking and been on the waiting list for the breeder since last March
 
Got a call from the breeder that she has 5 viable eggs! She said I should hear from her when they hatch around mid-late march :)
