A high-quality seed mix formulated specifically for small parrots is ideal, as it ensures a balanced combination of different seeds such as millet, canary grass seed, and sunflower seeds. Pelleted diets formulated specifically for small parrots are another option for feeding Parrotlets. Pellets can be offered as part of a Parrotlet's daily diet, either in addition to seeds or as a complete replacement.

Occasional treats can be offered to Parrotlets as a way to provide variety and enrichment in their diet. Treats such as nuts, cooked grains, and small amounts of cooked lean meats can be given in moderation. Fresh water should be available to Parrotlets at all times, provided in a clean and easily accessible water dish. Water is essential for hydration and helps support overall health and digestion.
