I just got the catalog.. I have some questions. Abbey is on Zupreem Fruit blend, Katee Exact Natural and a seed mix (I don't remember the name). I have been reading on here about roudybush. They have it at a better price then what she is eating now. They have a nutrition chart. I like that. Roudybush has everything but real fruit or veg.

I know alot of people have opinions on coloring of food, besides that shoud I switch? How hard is it to switch? She likes the Zupreem more than the Katee.

Has anyone used Bean Cuisine or Pretty Bird Birdy Banquet?

Is the Health Greens like the herb salad I have heard of?

Has anyone gotten a Bird Kone? It looks fun.

This is the last one...lol Birdbites Cheese Treats, Abbey loves cheese it might be better for her..

Does anyone have any experience with these items?

I have a Cag that is on Roudybush and loves it. My U2 was raised on fruit Zupreem by old owner. I can't for the life of me get him switched to a natural pellet.
Did you see the new Hanging toy that birds can climb on? Can't remember name. I gotta get it. so cool.
The seed cones are a favorits here.

Yeah the same thing happened here. Her old owner would just buy whatever at pet stores. So hopefully she will change foods.

I forgot to ask about Fruit Treats. They look like candy.

The "fruit" pellets are artifically colored and flavored. I don't recommend them for any birds. For those who feed pellets, any of the natural type that include Vit. D3 supplementation are better - Harrision's organic Lifetime, Roudybush or Zupreem natural.

I understand that, that is why I am wanting to which her to Roudybush.

I am trying to do the same thing with my Larry Boy, he was on some type of fruity colored pellet. Since she did not know what brand, I got one, and man, are they gross! I think the smell is just vile. He actually prefers the natural pellets, and so do I! Good luck, I hope time and persistence pays off.

I have several clients who's birds are on Roudybush. I believe their babies were weaned off to it tho from a breeder here.
They also like the cheese treats and the rice treats.

mine are offered harrisons, and also zupreem natural from a blend I make.

I have to warn you, the Healthy Greens looks like a big ol' bag of weed. LOL ... I can't tell if my birds actually eat any of it, I don't think they do.

They like the Bean Cuisine about the same as the other hot food mixes. It's very convenient.

My birds don't like Roudybush but eat the other Natural or Organic type of pellets just fine.

Don't have experience with the others.
