DIRECTIONS:
Maintenance diet should be fed as your bird’s primary diet (80% of daily feed consumed).

90g Cockatiel (or similar): provide a minimum 9g of Maintenance diet per day.
150g Sun conure (or similar): provide a minimum 15g of Maintenance diet per day.
300g Galah (or similar): provide a minimum of 30g of Maintenance diet per day.
