Directions for Use
- Feed Fresh Daily: Offer fresh pellets daily and replace any uneaten food to keep your bird’s diet fresh.
- Feed as Distinct Meals: To help reduce waste, feed pellets as distinct meals, since birds may eat all they want.
- Balance with Fresh Foods: Aim for 75 to 80% pellets and 15 to 20% organic leafy greens, yellow vegetables, and fruits daily.
- Skip Other Formulated Diets and Vitamins: Avoid other formulated diets and vitamins unless your avian veterinarian directs otherwise, to preserve the benefits.
- Switch to Pellets Slowly: Mix the new pellets into your bird’s regular food, increasing the amount by 25% each week over four weeks as needed.
- Get Your Bird to Try Them: If your bird seems hesitant, scatter a few pellets on white paper or a mirror on the enclosure floor to spark its interest.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is Harrison’s Adult Lifetime Super Fine Organic Pellet Food?
Ans: It is a certified organic, non-GMO verified pellet food made from whole grains and legumes with naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, and balanced Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, formulated as a year-round maintenance diet for small birds, available in a 1-lb bag.
Q2: Which birds is the Super Fine size for?
Ans: Adult Lifetime Super Fine suits canaries, finches, budgies (parakeets), parrotlets, cockatiels, lovebirds, and other small birds. Larger birds are better suited to the Adult Lifetime Fine or Coarse versions of this formula, depending on their size and species.
Q3: How do I convert my bird to this food?
Ans: Consult an avian veterinarian before any diet change, then mix the pellets with your bird’s current diet and note acceptance. If your bird needs more time, increase the pellets by 25 percent each week over four weeks while reducing other food by 25 percent.
Q4: What else should my bird eat each day?
Ans: A bird’s daily diet should be 75 to 80 percent pellets and 15 to 20 percent organic dark green leafy or dark yellow meaty vegetables and fruits, such as sweet potatoes, carrots, pumpkin, winter squash, broccoli, parsley, spinach, mango, or papaya. Do not offer vitamins unless your avian veterinarian directs it.
Q5: Can I feed other formulated diets alongside this food?
Ans: No, do not use other formulated diets alongside this formula, since doing so could reduce its benefits. Vitamins should also be avoided unless your avian veterinarian directs you to offer them. Fresh vegetables and fruits are the recommended additions.
Q6: How should I store the pellets?
Ans: After each use, squeeze out the air and close the bag securely, keeping the food in its original packaging. Use it within 12 weeks of opening. You can also refrigerate or freeze it after opening to help keep it fresh.
Q7: Why don’t the pellets look the same every time?
Ans: The pellets are made from premium whole grains and whole legumes without artificial processing or bleached or dyed flours, meals, or by-products that cover up natural grain characteristics. Only highly processed foods can look perfectly uniform every time, so variations in color, texture, and pellet size are normal.
