Is this appropriate for Green-cheeked conures?

my green cheek conure loves these fruit pellets. i noticed her and her cohorts, a 15 yr old quaker parrot and 12 yr old jenday conure, like this pellet size as they can hang on to it better while eating same and not dropping it. she's 9 yrs old and like her cohorts, in great shape and good health. they have been eating the zupreem feeds for 12 yrs now. bird seed not good for them as it don't provide all the nutrition they need. these parrots can live to age 25 yrs. gotta feed them right and ya gotta love 'em. just like a 2nd set of kids and LOL with them.

What is the nutritional difference between the fruit blend and the Natural one?

I don't believe there is a difference in the nutritional value between the two....but my parrots like the fruit blend over the natural blend and it's because, in my opinion of the color of the pellets. I mix the two toghether and my Amazon only eats the color pellets and leaves the natural ones.

Are these "extruded pellets"?

Yes NUTBLEND WITH NATURAL NUT FLAVOR are extruded pellets shaped like nuts and are for the larger birds. Copied the following from the Zupreem site:NutBlend With Natural Nut Flavor Premium Daily Bird Food provides healthy and balanced nutrition for Conures, Amazons, Greys, Pionus, Caiques, Senegals and any other medium to large parrots that prefer this nugget size.FEEDING INSTRUCTIONSFeed free choice and assure your bird always has fresh food and water. Adjust amounts to ensure your bird's optimum body condition - most birds consume 20% of their weight daily. Make this diet at least 80% of what your bird eats every day. Vitamin and mineral supplements are not required and could be harmful. Do not leave moistened food in the cup for more than 2 hours.STORAGE INSTRUCTIONSStore in a cool dry place, free of pests and insects. Gently push air from bag and reclose after each use.100% GUARANTEEIf you are not completely satisfied, return the unused portion of this product to ZuPreem along with the sales receipt for a refund.GUARANTEED ANALYSISCrude Protein (min.) 14%Crude Fat (min.) 4.0%Crude Fiber (max.) 4%Moisture (max.) 10%PRODUCT SIZE3.25 lb17.5 lbNutBlend With Natural Nut Flavor NutBlend With Natural Nut FlavorINGREDIENTSGround corn, Soybean meal, Ground wheat, Wheat germ meal, Sugar, Vegetable oil (preserved with mixed tocopherols), Calcium carbonate, Dicalcium phosphate, Iodized salt, Natural nut flavor, DL-Methionine, Choline chloride, Vitamins (Vitamin E supplement, Niacin, Calcium pantothenate, Vitamin A supplement, Biotin, Riboflavin, Pyridoxine hydrochloride, Thiamine mononitrate, Menadione sodium bisulfite complex (source of Vitamin K activity), Vitamin B12 supplement, Vitamin D3 supplement, Folic acid), L-Lysine monohydrochloride, preserved with Citric acid and Mixed tocopherols, Caramel color, L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate (a source of Vitamin C), Minerals (Manganous oxide, Zinc oxide, Copper sulfate, Sodium selenite, Calcium iodate), Rosemary extract

Can this replace seeds?

Yes, very much so. As others have said, it will take some time, even over a year for many parrots to eat or switch to pellets. I have found that when my birds have seen a food and then don't see it for awhile, say a couple of weeks or longer, they are very intrigued when I bring it back! Now I alternate Zupreem and Roudybush pellets. I only give seeds as a very occasional treat. Maybe once a week. Parrots on a seed-only diet do not live as long as birds on pellets. We also feed Red Mill Muesli every morning, cooked and 50%/50% with pureed pumpkin. Most parrots need a lot of vitamin A. Other fruits and veggies are good, too. Apples, Melon, Broccoli, Grapes, Carrots, Squash, Green Beans, etc.

フルーツブレンドXSサイズ、ナッツブレンド、ベジーブレンド、パスタブランド、フルーツブレンドも廃盤決定みたいですね。これ1つだけでペレットあげている方はインコの命に関わるかもしれないので至急他のご飯に慣らさないと大変な事になりそうです。代替ならラフィーバ、ラウディブッシュあたりなんでしょうかあとご飯のスムーズな切り替えをするには、リンゴなどインコが好きなものを飼い主が食べている時にインコにもお裾分けして一緒に食べ飼い主が食べてるものは【安心だ！美味しいモノだ！】と思わせておきます。そして新しいペレットの時もインコの前でオーバーに美味しい！上手い！って数粒ぼりぼり食べてます。笑そしたらもう興味津々になるのでかじりついてくれます笑抵抗あるなら食べたフリでもいいですけど意外とちゃんと見てるのと、どの味に近いか覚えておきたいので食べます笑全ての愛鳥ちゃんがスムーズにご飯の変更出来ますように。

インコによって好みがあり、黒い方を残したりする。見えにくいだけかな？

うちのウロコインコさんの好物です！もともと新しいペレットにもすぐ馴染む子ですが、ベージュが一番好きで、次にミルクティーブラウンを食べます。でも、ブラウンだけほぼ食べません。どういう訳か食べたとしても半分食べてあとはペッペッと飛ばしてしまいます（笑）今では元々好きだったフルーツブレンドからこちらのナッツブレンドを好んで食べています。

廃盤予定ってきいたんですけど、、なくならないでー('・ω・) ナッツ風味だからなのか食いつきいいし、ズプリームのペレットの中ではタイプの違うペレットで食感がサクサク！！ベジーブレンドもパスタブレンドもカナリアサイズも小袋もなくなるって聞いてショック（ ; ; ）現地ではあんまり人気なかったのかな、、ほんまにこれは食いつきいいんよな〜、全員！今まだお世話になりましたm(_ _)mでも帰ってきてくれると嬉しいな('・ω・)

I initially bought a fruit flavour zypreme pellets for medium birds, in that my birds love grapes flavour 🍇 purple pellets, later bought this Nut flavoured pellets they like it too. My birds are moody, so i serve pellets with some apple chunks and almonds every day. Overall happy with the zupreme product

Mi loro gris africano estaba feliz con la comida, usualmente le damos Zupreem natural. La marca es excelente el olor y color son buenos para loros que no les gustan los colores vivos. Estaria super bien que el costo se mantuviera para poder comprarla mas seguido.
