zupreem???

[raleej337]

anybody feeding their grey zupreem brand of pellets specially the fruitblend? what can you say about zupreem?

 

i've tried harrisons and roudybush but he doesn't like it. since i have zupreemwhich i feed my cockatiel i tried it and my grey ate it with gusto.

 

as usual, thanks in advance!

I feed Zupreme Naturals to my tag and she loves them , she would not eat Roudybush or harrisons so u can try the naturals and see if your grey likes them

George is on Zupreem Fruitblend and he loves them ! we alternate between hating the purple one week and the yellow the next !! I have tried Harrisons but he will not entertain them ! I have also just transfered my Mums tiel into eating Zupreem Friutblend

[casper]

Mine also eat Zupreem fruiblend but also will eat Harrisons as well.

 

They love the fruitblend but like Marie said, they like to pick and chose their colours sometimes.

[tracie]

My Chicka will only eat the Zupreem fruit. He refuses all other pellets I've tried. Unfortunately Lilo wont eat pellets at all though I continue to offer them.

[judygram]

No that Lilo wants people food, he wants anything you have on your plate, keep trying Tracie and maybe one day he will.

I feed mine Zupreem mixed with TOPs pellets. It gives them a little choice in what they want to eat. Mine didn't care for the Zupreem Natural but like the fruit blend. I don't really like feeding them food with artifical colors but I think overall Zupreem is a good nutrious pellet to feed. Greys can be picky eaters and if you find a pellet they will eat I say go for it.

[raleej337]

Simon our grey made his decision, he'll eat zupreem fruit blends. For the past 3 days since the switch he'll only eat zupreem and leave the roudybush in the bowl. I don't want to stress him by pushing the pellets he don't want to eat, so we'll settle for whatever he likes.

Echo loves the fruit blend as well, and she does the same thing. One day she hates the yellow ones, the next green! Too funny.

I have my grey on "Pretty Bird" pellets. The previous owner said she tried feeding him KayTee and he ended up getting red spots above his eyes. Does anyone know if it would be alright if I try to switch to zupreem fruit blend?

[judygram]

You can switch to another blend if you like, either offer the new one by itself or combine the new with what he is eating now and gradually increase the new and decrease the other until he is getting all new.

 

A lot of the members here feed Harrison's high potency pellets, that is the brand that most vets recommend and it is what my grey eats, she snacks on them all day.

[chimaysmommy]

Chimay was weaned onto Zupreem fruitblend and has been eating it ever since...I had accidentally ordered the "natural" blend once, and he turned his little beak up at it. Haha

[raleej337]

I wish my grey eat Harrisons but he really doesn't want to. As long as he eats his pellets and looks his healthy then we'll stick to that diet, anyway he loves his vegies and fruits. I am not giving him any seeds yet, I'll wait till its maybe 6 months to a year before I will introduce the seeds to his diet again.

[judygram]

The Harrisons may be the best but the others are a very close second so its not that big a deal if they won't eat it, as long as they do eat one of them.

[rbpittman]

I have four bird and only two of them will eat the same diet....go figure. Both of the greys will eat their Harrison's without fail. They eat it all day and according to the manufacturer it is a complete diet, however, all fids get fresh fruit and veggies daily. Sterling will only eat Zupreem Fruit - and only in the following order: purple, green, yellow if he wants more and red/orange if he's desperate. Every morning and evening I'm throwing out the same colors - red and orange. If they would make it all purple or purple and green I'd be happy. I've tried to convert him to Harrison's - that's a big NO WAY JOSE! Blue prefers Zupreem naturals with dried peppers and fruit. He won't eat anything else either - and I've tried. So, I go to the bird store, purchase for each, and have a lovely glass canister collection of bird pellets. They do keep us on our toes.

 

PS - if you decide to feed your baby fresh beets be prepared for pink poo! Two of my four love them!

[raleej337]

I will give Harrisons another try, I've just called them asking for a second bag of samples. If my fid snob the Harrisons for the second time then will really settle for Zupreem.

hi everyone, milo came to me weaned on to seed and as his bag is nearly finished i would like to transfer him to zupreem fruit pellets, i just wondered how much do you have to feed them and how long does a bag last? (i do feed fruit and veg egg and other stuff)

 

thanks

my 4 month old CAG consumes 1/2 cup of zupreem (give or take) and it depends how much fruit or vegetables he eats. I put fresh batch of pellets every morning, no top offs.

[Codys Mom]

wow thats alot seems like my Rudy eats Zupreme Naturals she won't touch any colored pellets finicky bird she is plus her fruits and veggies

I don't measure her food I just fill her bowl close to half way full but she doesn't eat it all in one day I usually change her pellets every 2 days

[rayyan]

hi, just to let u all know my first bag of zupreem fruit blend arrived yesterday and milo gave it the thumbs up, he really likes it!

 

thanks for ur help!

[kittykittykitty]

Precious wouldn't eating ANY pellets until the Avian vet suggested Harrisons high potency and she took to those immediately. Just goes to show you what independent creatures our Greys are!

[raleej337]

well my CAG really doesn't care about Harrisons, I've tried twice already and really no luck. I've just recently I switched from frutiblend to natural and got no problem with the switch. So for the past 5 days he's been eating the Zupreem natural plus his usual fruits and vegies.

[sandra902]

peetey my tiel i give the parakeet/budgie fruit blend. he likes the smaller size kibble.

 

milly (mitred conure) and merlin (CAG) get the harvest feast or the spicy one with the dried peppers. i used to give them the fruit blend too which they like well enough but those look too much like fruit loops for my liking. but that's just me.

to be fair, i wish they offered a kibble-only product as my little outlaws do not go for the pumpkin seeds and dried peas and peppers and such and i (frugal soul that i am) dislike throwing the filler out each day.

 

but i just chalk it up to spoiling our little ones and only mutter a little bit under my breath.

 

i used to feed harrisons, but i was throwing out way too much for my liking. it is pretty boring looking stuff after all, as is the roudybush. i don't think i would like to eat beige food either. wonder if it has any flavor at all.

Rishi switched from seeds to Harrison's High Potency overnight without any trouble about 2 months back!!!

 

He now has a mixture of Harrison's High Potency and Zupreem Avian Entrees.

 

My cockatiels are also trying Harrisons Fine mixed with seeds.

[she]

My Charlie eats the Harrisons high potency no problem and Cracker eats Harrisons adult fine and seed.
