Lafeber Nutriberries Reviews

When I adopted my first parrot two years ago, her foster mom gave me a container of Lafeber Nutriberries.  She had purchased them for her bird and it turned out that he didn't like them.  She told me that Lafeber products are excellent and that these Nutriberries could be fed as the main diet rather than just an occasional treat.  I've sinced learned that her advice was not the best but I do still continue to purchase this product as an occasional treat. —  Nutriberries are round, solid balls of corn, seed, nuts, egg, oats, etc.  They come in different sizes for… read full review »

Nutri-berries are theoretically nutritionally balanced, but I concur with other reviewers that they wouldn't be the best choice as a main diet. They're a good treat or an easy meal to give at times when I am in too much of a hurry to prepare fresh food. My Timneh grey always welcomes them. It's a relatively expensive food to give, and although almost the whole berry is "theoretically" edible, in practice my bird carefully picks out the safflower seeds, peanut pieces, and other favorite bits, and the rest tends to get dropped on the cage floor. Still, it's a fun food for… read full review »

I have 3 budgies that love this nutriberries.  Yes, nutriberries are a complete diet but....... my budgies will not eat the little pellets that are in these.  They will pick around them and only gnaw on the molasses and seeds.  I have to smash them up in order for them to eat the berries.  If I leave them whole, then they will use them for "toys!"  I kept wondering what a small thumping noise was when I first fed the berries.  Then I saw!  One of the girls was picking the berry up and tossing it; and she was having quite a bit of fun at it, too, I might… read full review »

Lafeber's makes great products, and the Nutriberries certainly fall into that category. They come sized for different types of hookbills, and the birds typically immediately love them, even if they are picky eaters. I have rescued a lot of birds over the years, and the Nutriberries is one of the first things I'll introduce them to in their new home as I am confident that the birds will eat, and that reduces their stress.… read full review »

My G2 has developed an addiction to these treats and I'm happy to enable her! The ingredients are healthy, the size is perfect for her to hold and her enjoyment gives me some "down time" on busy days! —  The container keeps the product fresh although I do transfer to a pretty canister. The cost is a bit high but I balance that fact with the quality and it's worth every penny. —… read full review »

My Quaker Parrot loves these! Especially the Garden Veggie Flavor.  They offer lots of different flavors for all types of birds.  My Cockatiels also enjoy them but not as much as my Quaker.  When he sees the back he starts talking and getting very excited. … read full review »

Nutriberries are a great TREAT and supplement to daily food.  They are NOT to be used exclusively for food.  Mine eats these and pelleted food every day and she is a happy, healthy bird.  And my floors are clean--not a lot of messy seed shells spit out of the… read full review »
