Have you ever wondered how parrots spend their days in the wild? In this episode, we dive into the fascinating and essential world of parrot foraging! From the early morning search for fruit, nuts, and seeds to more complex social behaviors that go hand-in-hand with positive behavior in the household. Discover why foraging isn’t just about finding food; it’s a vital part of a parrot’s mental stimulation, problem solving, and survival. We’ll also explore how you can bring this natural behavior into your own parrot’s lifestyle at home through enrichment and interactive toys.

We’ll talk about:

  • What foraging is and why parrots need it
  • How foraging mimics natural bird behavior in the wild
  • Easy DIY foraging ideas you can try at home
  • The best parrot foraging toys and enrichment activities available
  • Tips to introduce foraging to your bird at any age

Whether you’re a new bird owner or a longtime parrot lover, this episode will give you practical tools and inspiration to make foraging part of your bird’s daily life.

Foraging keeps parrots busy, happy, healthy and it can transform your relationship with your bird.
