Review: Took awhile but by the end of the bag, he liked it! - I struggled in the beginning to get my Eclectus to eat this. I bought this food at the advice of my veterinarian. My eclectus also gets fresh organic fruits, veggies, bean mix and small amount of nuts everyday. Fruits, bean mix and veggies are the main staple of his diet. He also had a tendency to want to eat sunflower seeds and other seeds only, which is not good for Eclectus to over eat. seeds. Especially not sunflower seeds. So, when taking him to the vet, my vet found that he was a bit low in weight and had a little bit of high liver enzymes. He asked if I was giving him pellets. I was giving him the natural Zupreem pellets but he didn't want to eat them. So what i did to get him to eat these is: First Week:. I cut up the pellets and mashed it up with the juice from the blackberries I mixed in his favorite fruit. His favorite fruits are blueberries, pomegranate and blackberries. So I would squish the blackberry juice for example, all over the pellets to let them soak up the juice and mash it all up. Also left a few pellets in their usual size but let them soak up juice. Then I threw in the rest of the blackberry in with it. At first he would just eat the parts of the blackberries he could pick out. (I still continued to let him have seeds) Second Week: I cut pellets in half ( because he won't bite into nuts or pellets that are too hard) But I no longer mashed the pellets up. He was picky so I continued the same thing ( Also I fed a few to my dogs and when he saw them eating it and heard the crunch crunch, he tried to pick up his pellets and then threw them down) (I ate a few myself, I have to say they are tasty and taste like sunflower seeds with no salt) Third Week: I began just soaking the pellets in his blackberry juice. (Juice of the blackberry only) ....continued his sunflower and seeds, but less of them (I had to go slow taking away his sunflower seeds because he actually got moody when I didn't give them to him) Fourth Week: Continue the same as third week but put less juice of the blackberry. (Really went down on seeds, like just a few) Fifth Week: By this time I cut only some of the Harrison's pellets up and left some the normal size. Then late at night I put a bowl of frozen Harrison's so by morning they were ready to eat. Sixth Week: All of a sudden early morning I heard him chomping away on the pellets. I couldn't believe it!! By the sixth week he doesn't eat seeds anymore. By the sixth week he was ready to for a new bag! Keep the bag frozen in your freezer and it will last the six weeks. But if you just put them in the fridge this big bag only lasts up to 10 days. Note: My vet says he is alot more healthy and very good weight. But, I did find he was getting a bit hyper and aggressive. My vet said it may be the spirulina in the Harrisons becuase some Eclectus act like that when they eat spirulina. So what he had me do is give him less of the Harrison's and add a little bit of the Zupreem Pellets or RoudyBush. He said if he takes the RoudyBush, I can give him RoudyBush instead if I want to, but he still thinks the Harrison's is much more healthy. I do have to say I can see an improvement in his color and he does have alot more energy since eating Harrison's. When I first got him, he didn't want to move around much or climb any of his toys on his jungle gym. Now? Oh my gosh he climbs to the top like a little monkey! Will continue buying Harrisons I am very happy with him and so is he!
Review: My bird loves it, and so does her bloodwork! - My rescue Blue & Gold Macaw came from a home where she was eating a really low quality diet, and her bloodwork at the vet reflected that at her first visit. I switched her to Harrisons High Potency Course, along with whatever fresh fruits and veggies I can get her to eat, and this year her bloodwork came back GREAT! She even has papillae regrowing in her mouth due to her improved nutrition. I attribute this mostly to the Harrison's because, while I try to get her to eat her fresh foods, she is picky so her diet is still mostly composed of pellets. She LOVES this food and it's doing wonders for her!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does Harrison have any pellets without peanuts of corn. My parrots can't eat them**
A: I would look at the Adult Lifetime Mash formula by Harrison's Bird Food, there is no peanuts or corn in this formulation...here is the ingredient: *Ground Hulled Grey Millet, *Ground Toasted Buckwheat Groats, *Ground Soy Flakes, *Ground Hulled Sesame Seeds, *Chia Seed, *Spirulina, Calcium Carbonate, *Ground Sun-Dried Alfalfa, Montmorillonite Clay, *Ground Dried Sea Kelp, Di-Calcium Phosphate, Vitamin E Supplement, Sea Salt, Ground Whole Anise, Vitamin A Supplement, Vitamin D3 Supplement, D-alpha tocopheryl acetate, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Riboflavin Supplement, d-Calcium Pantothenate, Niacin Supplement, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, d-Biotin, Thiamine Mononitrate, Folic Acid, Zinc Oxide, Copper Sulfate, Sodium Selenite, Calcium Carbonate.

**Q: Is this 5lb or 3? The listing has both sizes listed.. 5 lb as title and in picture but only 3 lb listed as the option.**
A: Back when I bought it I bought 5 LBS. I have never bought it again (it's been at least 8 months) as my particular parrot didn't really like it., so I don't know how they are selling it now.

**Q: does it help with feather plucking?**
A: My bird plucked his feather's because he had Borna Virus. After a year in treatment he stopped for the most part, unless he gets highly stressed. We switched him from Zupreem to Harrison's High Potency and it is much better for him. We treated him for a year with a liquid Celebrex course of medication. We also added 24 hour heat in his cage to help him recover. When birds are in a stressful environment like lots of noise, children, dogs barking, too much light, maybe tv's are too loud, video games, not enough time outside the cage (minimum 45 minutes a day) , not enough interaction (minimum 3 hours a day) , not enough toys (need lots of stimulation from chewing, claw toys, bells, wood blocks, etc. ) , maybe there is to much quick movement in the room, large boxes, sticks on the bottom of the cage ( look like snakes) . It really could be any one of several factors.

**Q: Whst is the expiration date on this 25 lb bag?**
A: I don't pay attention to the date.  It has a lengthy date similar to other animal products when you receive.  I repackage into gallon size freezer bags and freeze them until I need them. I have done this for 15 years at least and never had a problem.  I am feeding this to a 30 year old African gray, 28 year old eclectus and a Moluccan cockatoo.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best cockatoo food for molting/plucking cockatoos
*by M***Y on July 6, 2026*

This seems to be the best food when our cockatoo starts molting or pulling out feathers. She really likes this food and prefers it to any other food on the market. The only drawback is the price. It's very expensive! However, since it keeps my bird from plucking and she likes it, I will continue to buy it.
