Is their anyone that make their own parrotlets food? What do you put in them, because Im trying to make my own parrotlets some. I heard that its not good to feed the parrotlets some pellets because of the kidney so Im thinking make my own parrotlet foods.

Parrotlets do very well on Shauna's Mash diet (Feeding Feathers Yahoo forum) - it is a fresh diet of sprouted or cooked whole grains (30% of diet) and certain, more easily digested legumes (15% of diet), lots of fresh vegetables daily (about 45% of the diet), some fruit (10% of diet), and natural supplements. If you look back in the threads, I just did a photo post on the Mash diet last week. Some pellets as part of the diet (I feed about 20% pellets) are fine too, but they really thrive on a lot of fresh food in the right proportions.
