Homemade vs. Commercial Pet Food

wholesomehound

So, apparently my pet parrot now gets full-time culinary lessons courtesy of my “nutritious” homemade blend versus the oh-so-divine commercial feed. Which route actually makes your furball (or feathered friend) look less like a reject from a pet food taste-testing panel? Has anyone cracked the code on when to throw out your kitchen experiments in favor of that supermarket magic? Enlighten me before my pet becomes the poster child for canine/cavian gourmet disasters.

I ended up tossing out any homemade mix that’s been sitting for more than 48 hours—even when it looks okay—since subtle changes can mean a drop in nutrient quality or the start of mold. Keeping a tight cycle and regular quality checks really helps keep the meals both fun and safe for my feathered friend.
