FAQs About Conure Food, Bird Seeds and Pellets

Yes, conures can eat parrot food. Since conures are technically a smaller parrot species, parrot food contains very similar nutrition to conure food mix. Many commercial foods are even marketed to both parrots and conures. However, despite belonging to the same subfamily, large parrot food—like ones formulated for Amazons or macaws—often contains larger seeds or pellets that a conure may struggle to bite. Be sure to check the size of the pellets when choosing food for your bird to make mealtime easier and reduce the risk of choking.

Yes. Conures and parakeets are part of the parrot family and have very similar diets consisting mainly of seeds. However, parrot food and conure food are more similar than the dietary similarities between conures and parakeets, so you should regularly feed your bird formulated for conures.
