All Scenic Bird Foods are extruded diets. Extruded foods are like pellets but with significant differences. They are light and crunchy, not hard, and usually are manufactured in a variety of sizes an shapes. You do not need to add vitamins or mineral supplements to our foods. To add to your birds overall eating experience; you may add fresh fruits and/or vegetables in a separate food cup. Our foods when fed dry can stay in your birds' food cups for several days. If you moisten the food then you need to remove it daily. The storage of our food is simple. Store the food in a cool, dry location like a pantry shelf. After opening the bag, transfer the contents into a plastic storage container that has a good air-tight lid. Do not use metal storage containers to store the food.
