#1015 Aria Nature's Raw Unsalted Oat Groats In Shell - Parrot Food & Enrichment Grain - 1lb

About: Raw Unsalted Oat Groats (In Shell)

Introduce your parrot to a nutritious, whole-grain treat that adds both dietary value and foraging fun to their routine. Our raw, unsalted oat groats in shell are unprocessed oat kernels that provide complex carbohydrates, fiber, essential vitamins, and minerals that support overall bird health when fed as part of a balanced diet. Oats are a safe and beneficial grain for parrots to consume in moderation, whether served raw or lightly prepared.

Oat groats offer a crunchy texture perfect for encouraging natural foraging behavior and beak engagement. Their slow-release energy makes them a wholesome treat that helps keep active parrots satisfied throughout the day.

Why parrots can benefit from oat groats:

• Energy & nutrients: Oat groats supply complex carbohydrates, protein, and dietary fiber to support digestion and sustained energy.
• Vitamins & minerals: Contains B vitamins, iron, magnesium, and phosphorus—nutrients important for metabolism, feather health, and overall well-being.
• Foraging enrichment: Offering in-shell oat groats as a treat encourages natural pecking and problem-solving behavior that stimulates your bird mentally and physically.

💡 Parrot care note: Grains like oat groats should complement a high-quality pellet or formulated diet, fresh vegetables, and other essential foods. Moderation is key; too many grains can unbalance a diet if not paired with nutrient-dense staples.

Pure, natural oat groats—no additives, no salt, no oils.

Feeding Instructions

Use oat groats as a treat, enrichment challenge, or supplementary grain, not a primary diet.

How to serve:

• Offer oat groats raw and dry in a treat dish or scatter them in a foraging tray.
• For easier chewing, you may lightly soak the oat groats in water (no salt or seasoning).
• You can also mix them into a mash or homemade birdie bread if your parrot prefers softer textures.

Suggested serving amounts:
(Adjust based on species, size, and activity level.)

• Small parrots (budgies, lovebirds, parrotlets): 1–2 groats per session.
• Medium parrots (cockatiels, conures): 3–6 groats per session.
• Large parrots (amazons, greys, cockatoos, macaws): 5–10 groats per session.

Serve oat groats a few times per week rather than daily to maintain diet balance and prevent over-reliance on any single food type.

Best practices:

• Combine oat groats with a variety of fresh veggies, pellets, and other nutritious foods for a complete diet.
• Always monitor for mold or spoilage—discard any grains that appear off.
• Provide fresh, clean water daily.
