CAGs on Higgins Cockatiel seed

[MissOMalley]

My 2 adult rescue/inherited CAGs that I will be picking up tomorrow have been fed Higgins Cockatiel seed for years. I was told she feeds this cockatiel formula instead of parrot to avoid sunflower seeds. They used to be on Kaytee pellets, but they didnt do well at all on them. I dont plan on changing their diet too much until they have settled down here. Is this seed sufficient for now? I will offer a variety of fresh foods of course.

 

Thanks!,

I feed all my birds a little of Higgins Celestrial blend but not every day, few times a week because quakers are known to get fatty liver disease and so are Amazons , so maybe twice a week they get a little bit of seed mix , I'am trying to get DJ off the seedmix so he only gets a 1/2 of teaspoon of seedmix everyday with his Nutriberries and he will only eat Kaytee Exact Pellets , not fond of colored pellets but so far that is the only pellet he will touch and I have tried 5 different types of pellets and noooooo Sunflower seeds
