Kacy The Conure Likes Watermelon
Mum will always prepares and serves up fresh fruits after dinner for the family. Today, we had watermelon that Mum bought from the hypermart this morning. Kacy, the Black Capped Conure got a small serving of the watermelon too.
She simply loves it! She actually gobbled up her serving within minutes!
All Parrots have a higher need for Vitamin A in their diet in order to maintain vibrant, healthy feathers. Watermelon is a very good source of Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Potassium.
Although watermelon is high in nutritional value yet low in calories, but the high water content does cause a hype in urine content in Kacy’s droppings. She really “pee” a lot than usual after eaten her servings of watermelon.
