Nutritional Requirement for the Macaw:
A variety of food items shoud be provided to the Macaw. Typically, a core diet of an organic and color free parrot pellets. A large variety of fresh vegetables should be provided for both nutrition and mental stimulation. A small amount of seeds can be provided as a treat.. Seeds should be clean and fresh.
An inexpensive and convenient way of feeding greens to your macaws would be sprouted seeds. Even if you don't have time to prepare vegetables, spooning out some sprouted seeds for them is easy and quick. The best thing, however, is that sprouted seeds are extremely nutritious and I have not seen a parrot yet who didn't love them. Sprouted seeds are a good way of introducing greens to the stubborn eater.
- Don't want to go through the trouble of sprouting and would prefer an easier way to provide greens to your bird?
- Please refer to "Veggie Bites" as a convenient, yet healthful alternative or complementary food item to sprouts.

However, in general macaws require a higher fat content in their diet which can be provided with some of the large nuts as a part of their regular diet.
