					| I have doubts about it.  There's very little information available on that brand, and this link says it's made by Purina for the Tractor Supply Company:  https://answers.yahoo.com/question/inde ... 615AAx6FiS Tractor Supply seems to be the only seller, and the product line seems to be aimed more at livestock and poultry than pets:  http://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/search/dumor I couldn't find a picture of their cockatiel mix, but their parrot mix looks like it's seeds, dried corn and other dried vegetables, with no pellets in the mix.  The ingredients have a VERY long list of additives.  A lot of it is vitamins and minerals, but it's questionable how much of this the bird would actually eat.  When vitamins are added to a seed mix, they're sprayed on the hulls. This works for chickens since they swallow seed whole but parrots don't eat the hulls. Cockatiels tend to not eat dried fruits and vegetables in a seed mix.

					| What I'm looking is for seeds, they do eat both Harrison high balance and roughly bush  brand of natural pellets plus zupreem fruitblend, once in a while I give them lafebers pellet-berry, cooked quinoa, kale, broccoli, chia, flax seed, I tried to give them variety .for seed I used to buyed the  vitakraft menu, but I have been trowing almost everything because they won't eat the dried fruit and vegetables,
 
 I just bought the zupreem smart select, will see how much they like it

					| Cockatiels naturally don't like fruits, so that's normal. Try giving them the vegetables in a seperate bowl. When you put them together with seeds, cockatiels think 'foraging time!' And choose the parts they like.

I use a large lunchbox to feed my birds and everything is mixed Seed,veg,pellets etc and all of it gets eaten.
