ParrotRecipes.com - Natural Parrot Food Questions
Question #1:My parrot only likes sunflower seeds and peanuts?My Meyer Parrot is a least 8 years old i am guessing....really unsure of her age, the people who sold her to pet store lied to them about her age. Anyway she has been eating seed most of her life i am guessing and i want her to eat fruits, veggies, and other healthy things. Shes not really into the vegetables...Anyway i noticed all she eats out of her seed mix mostly is peanuts and sunflower seeds.Would these other two foods be a good idea to try? The fruity looking one i can get in town, the other would have to be ordered. Any tips on switching her to a better diet? Click Here Click Here Thank You Any advice would be great. Question #2:Is there any food or fruit that could harm or poison my Lorikeet?I have heard that there are certain natural foods that can harm or even poison parrots? What do I need to look out for when it comes to my Lorrikeet?Question #3:How to stop an ant invasion?I have a problem with ants. They occasionally go for food and sugar (which is normal ant behaviour) but I have just discovered a whole army, running in three lines across the wall. I looked to see if there was anything which may have attracted them but they just came out of one small hole in the skirting board, are marching across the whole wall and back into another hole in the skirting board.I've tried spraying them but they keep coming back. I also have two little parrots and I don't want to spray too much poison around them. Any effective and natural way of getting rid of these critters? Question #4:This is strange but I need help with presents for my pets?i have 1 female parrot, a mexican red head, gorgeous lil gal! hahaha :)but this is difficult- she doesnt like a lot of toys and she doesnt like those special parrot treats... but she likes peanuts (no salt, of course) but is there anything that makes parrots happy? lol and i have a cat, a bengal mix i think, and he has too many toys and no more of them lol. he onlly eats 1 kind of food, purina naturals :) whats a good "cat gift"? lololol! thanks sweeties! LY :) Question #5:How to get rid of ants?I hate these stupid ants, they get into everything. We have all our food in airtight containers, and they STILL manage to get into some of it. We are not dirty, we do our dishes every night, we don't leave crumbs on the floor, I don't understand why they're coming in. And once i seal up one spot their coming in, they find another by the next day. We can't spray any pesticides, it could kill our parrot. So we are stuck with seemingly useless natural remedies....We've tried spraying vinegar (which makes the whole apartment smell nasty), putting lines of cinnamon along the wall and in the cabinets, putting out cornmeal with borax mixed in..... What else can we do? And when will the little f***ers die for the winter, or hibernate or whatever they do? It's been in the 50's and their still out in force?Question #6:Did you know.................?only one book has been produced more times than the bible, the ikea catalogueIt is illegal to reproduce or sell Jack Daniels in the town where it was made If you are right handed, you tend to chew your food on the right side Chewing gum whilst peeling onions stops you crying If your tongue is pink, it is germ free The titanic was the first ship to use the SOS signal The pupil of the eye expands as much as 45% if the person looks at something pleasing Six year old laugh (on average) 300 times a day Bats always turn left when exiting a cave before we eat honey, it has already been digested by a bee The colour blue causes the brain to release calming hormones Every time you sneeze, some of your brain cells die When you blush, the lining of your stomach also turns red When a hippo is upset, it's sweat turns red the lion that roars on the MGM logo is named Volney It cost 7 million dollars to make the Titanic and 200 million dollars to make a film about it There are 1,792 steps to the top of the Eiffel Tower The sound you hear when you crack your knuckles is actually the sound of nitrogen gas bubbles bursting Human hair and fingernails continue to grow after death Every day 200 million couples make love, 400,000 babies are born, and 140,000 people die In most watch advertisements the time displayed on the watch is 10:10 because then the arms frame the brand of the watch (and make it look like it is smiling) Colgate translates into the command “go hang yourself” in spanish The only 2 animals that can see behind itself without turning its head are the rabbit and the parrot Intelligent people have more zinc and copper in their hair The average person laughs 13 times a day Women blink nearly twice as much as men Large kangaroos cover more than 30 feet with each jump Whips makes a cracking sound because its tip moves faster than the speed of sound If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle; if the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died as a result of wounds received in battle; if the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural cause The human heart creates enough pressure while pumping to squirt blood 30 feet!! now there's something you don't learn everyday!

I am just stumped on what i would like. any ideas?Question #14:What vine plant can I use over my koi pond?I've recently dug a 1500 gal koi pond in my backyard. I have a 500 gal water garden that spills into the koi pond that contains hardy lilies and anacharis. The koi pond itself has hardy lilies, papyrus dwarfs, taro, cattails. pennyworts, parrot feathers and lotus in an attempt to control algae and give the koi food to nibble on when it isn't feeding time. A green free tetrapond UV is installed into a 2000 gph submersible pump that goes into a filter in an attempt to prevent algae. The problem is that my pond gets direct sun the entire day with no shade; so the water is clear in the morning, and nice and green by the evening. The filtration system then catches up every night so that it's clear again in the morning. I want to create a natural cover for the pond to block out some of the sun to prevent this unwanted cycle. I have been building a structure for a vine plant to grow in order to provide an "umbrella" over the pond; the problem is finding a suitable plant that can grow fast and is not poisonous to my koi. The original plan was to plant Wisteria because they are aggressive and have beautiful blooms, but I recently discovered that the plant is considered poisonous to my precious koi. Any suggestions and advice on pond care and what plant to choose is welcome! Thank you in advance.Question #15:is there a natural food or a medicine that can work as a laxativefor my umbrella cokatoo,(parrot)?lately "snowflake" my umbrella cokatoo has been having trouble, pooping it wontcome out, and he has a mess of fickle matter all over his private area, im really worried, i think if he took a laxative of somesort it might help him out, please help FOR "SNOWFLAKE'S" SAKE!!!Question #16:Rainbow Parrot Fish?Are rainbow parrotfish k selected species or r selected?Whatt is its niche.

What sort of survival challenges does it face (both natural and anthropogenic)?Are there conservation strategies in place to protect this species and/or its habitat? Question #17:Is this good food for a senegal?Is this food good for a senegal to live a long and healthy life?Click Here It says it's for all types of parrots and conures. Is it good for a senegal? Question #18:Clown Loach Inquiries...?i have two 2.5-3in clown loaches...1. i was wondering if its ok to add on my aquarium 1inch ciclid parrots maybe 4 of em or 5, would they hurt each other or what? 2. what fresh foods can i feed my clown loach which wont add too much waste on my tank? how do i prepare them? 3. is it ok if i provide my clown loaches a plantless tank but it has lots of stones and slates as hiding places... 4. how many years before my 3 inch clown loach grows to a half foot? 5. can a 2/3 inches clown loach grow on a 10 gallon tank? coz my friend has 3 clown loaches on a 10g tank.. and we were wondering if it could grow even a bit before it is transferred to a bigger tank.. 6. are there natural fresh foods that can enhance the clown loaches color as they grow? 7. thanks alot guys... hihihi....
