Actually, he's pretty easy.

He eats a pellet-formed food, and then once a day, this stuff that we mix up once month: you buy it in a bag, and then cook it for 5 minutes with some water... add some frozen veggies and a slice of torn up wheat-bread.
You then freeze portions in baggies...Thaw baggies as neccessary and give him a (room-temperature) serving per day, usally about two cereal spoons.

We call this bit "Birdie Breakfast".

I know it sounds complicated and a hassled, but it really is not.

Care?

You want to keep the cage clean.

I change all of our cages twice a week.

( we also have 'Keets, and a guinea pig, and a cat)


I keep my house at about 65 degrees in the winter, and the new bird seems fine.

This new bird is just a joy... SO fun and interactive!

( Beautiful plumage!)
