Parakeets are birds in the parrot family. They come in several varieties including quaker and ringnecked parakeets. Typically, parakeets are smaller, more monochromatic versions of parrots. They exhibit the same intelligence and grace, and some quaker parakeets can live up to 30 years, so diet is important to their longevity.

We offer protein-rich and natural organic foods that are easily accepted by your bird. They are rich in nutrients and use pet-friendly ingredients. Much of our parakeet food is flavored with your bird in mind as well. Flavors like southwestern style, fruit blends and egg granule mixtures are popular choices among our parakeet-owning customers.

For every food product we carry, more information is available by clicking on the icon on our website for the particular product that interests you.

In addition, we always include the nutritional content, including protein, fat, and fiber levels for each product.

In general, our parakeet products are protein and fiber rich to aid bird digestion. Birds have two-chambered stomachs, consisting of a proventriculus and a gizzard. When the seed passes whole into the proventriculus, or first chamber, nutrients are absorbed through acid breakdown. The food is then passed to the second chamber, or the gizzard. It is here that mineral stones crush the food. Food from Bird Buffet N Things maximizes nutrient and vitamin consumption in the first chamber and offers soft ingredients so the bird won't have trouble passing the food through the gizzard.
