Avigrain Troppo Blue 15kg – Premium Fruit & Nut Treat Mix for Large Parrots

Avigrain Troppo Blue: Premium Fruit and Nut Mix for Large Parrots

Avigrain Troppo Blue is a premium fruit, nut and oilseed blend made for large parrots, both as a treat for tame birds and as a base breeder mix for bigger species. It sits at the top of Avigrain's Blue range, which uses the more expensive fruits and nuts rather than plain grain, and it's genuinely rich enough that the birds "go troppo" over it, which is where the name comes from. Avigrain is 100% Australian owned, made and grown.

This is a coarse, oil-and-nut-heavy mix rather than a small-seed one, so it's best suited to large native and exotic parrots that can handle bigger grain and crack nuts. That includes cockatoos (black cockatoos, sulphur-crested, Major Mitchell, galahs, gang-gangs, corellas), eclectus, alexandrines, ringnecks, amazons, macaws and conures. For smaller parrots it's better treated as an occasional treat rather than a staple, since a millet-based mix suits them better day to day.

What's in the Mix

Troppo Blue is built around oilseeds, real fruit and whole nuts:

• Grey stripe sunflower and safflower (oilseeds)

• Raw peanuts, peanuts in shell and almonds

• Coconut chips and snow white pumpkin seeds

• Banana chips, paw-paw, pineapple, dried mango and/or dried apple

• Chillies

Some ingredients can vary seasonally, which is normal for a premium fruit-and-nut mix.

How to Feed It

Because Troppo Blue is high in oilseeds and nuts, it's rich in fat and energy. For large parrots it works well as a base mix, but it's still worth balancing with fresh vegetables, greens and any species-specific supplements your birds need rather than feeding oilseed and nut mix alone. For smaller parrots, offer it as a treat in modest amounts. As with any seed mix, provide clean fresh water, keep the feed dry, and store the bag sealed in a cool, dry place so the nuts and fruit stay fresh and don't go rancid.

Choosing the Right Size

Troppo Blue comes in 1kg, 2kg, 4kg and 15kg. The smaller packs suit one or two birds or trying the mix, while the 15kg bag is the better value per kilo if you're feeding several large parrots or using it as a regular base mix. Seed mixes are best used while fresh, so match the pack size to how quickly your birds get through it rather than over-buying.
