I feed my birds a mix of fruits, grains and vegetables every day. Occasionally, I'll mix large batches of "mash" or "chop" ahead of time for freezing. If you aren't familiar with mash or chop, it's definitely worth reading about. For those of us who don't have time to prepare fresh foods every day, chop is an easy way to make sure your birds are getting the most from their diet.
The following page features a mash with quinoa that turned out really beautiful. Generally, foods with a lot of color and texture are more appealing to our birds. It's the same for us when we sit down at a fancy restaurant. A good chef knows exactly what they're doing when they prepare those gorgeous $100 plates ;)
