Finding the right food for your cockatoo can sometimes be a bit hard. And finding an organic blend (without any preservatives) is practically impossible. Luckily, it's not too hard to make your own. With the right collection of seeds, fruits, veggies, and greens you can create the perfect cockatoo kibble.

Ingredients
2 Cup safflower seeds
2 Cup oat groats
2 Cup buckwheat
1/2 Cup pumpkin seed
1/2 Cup squash seed
1/2 Cup sunflower seed
1 Cup millet seeds
1 Cup Whole Walnuts
1 Cup Whole Brazil Nuts
1/2 Cup Whole Peanuts
1 Cup Dried Peas
1 Cup Dried Carrots
1 Cup Dried Corn
1 Cup Unsweetened Dried Coconut
1/2 Cup Unsweetened Dried Banana
1/2 Cup Unsweetened Dried Pineapple
1 Cup Dried Alfalfa
1 Cup Dried Timothy Hay

Directions:
Mix it all together and package into sealed 1 gallon bags. Serve your lucky bird about 2 cups a day (or fill their food dish full). Change out daily.
