About Our Birds
We are committed to raising happy-healthy
birds here at Wisconsin Parrots. So how do we
do that???
1. Diet. Our babies are weaned on a wide
variety of foods which includes...SunSeed Vita
Parrot or Cockatiel mix, Zupreem Natural
Parrot or Cockatiel pellets, a cooked soft food
mix which contains red wheat, brown rice,
pearled or hulled barley, quinoa, pinto beans,
whole wheat pasta, lentils & mixed vegetables.
Our birds get seasonal fruits, vegetables and
greens from our large garden. We also feed
sprouted red wheat (very nutritious), and
birdie bread (Bobbi Brinker's recipe).
2. We do not sell un-weaned babies, nor do we
force wean our babies. We don't have a
schedule we follow to tell us when to stop hand
feeding our birds, we let the birds tell us when
they are weaned. This helps the birds be more
trusting towards us, and leads to a much
sweeter pet.
3. Proper fledging. We make sure that all of
our baby birds become good fliers, and spend
time on this daily. This helps to insure that you
get a confident bird. If a bird can maneuver
with confidence, there is less of a chance of
injury.
4. Individual attention. We spend lots of
one-on-one time with each & every bird. From
hand-feeding, FlightSuit (diaper) training,
playtime, step-up training, and flying practice,
our birds our raised with lots of love and
attention.
