Birdie Tip: Do not store pellets in the refrigerator. This will cause condensation in the container when removed from the refrigerator and will lead to moldy food. It is best to store very large quantities in the freezer and remove them a couple of hours before use. Quantities of food that will last the bird for 3-6 months can be stored at room temperature in a sealed container and remain fresh.
Bird Brain Information: Birds have a unique mechanism for jaw movement. Both the upper and lower jaws in most birds are movable. In parrots, there is actually a synovial joint that is between the skull and the upper beak. This type of beak movement is called prokinetic.
