I discovered your website and product when I visited to vote for my friends Caique in your “There's Beak on My Beak” contest. It sounded good and giving my birds a wholesome warm meal was something I've wanted to do, so I tried a sample pack.
Day one, my own Caique could have been a “There's Beak on My Beak” contestant! Day 2, my Nanday not only ate all of her Cream of Tweet, she also ate the area on the paper plate it was served to her on. By day 3, even the fussy budgies, finches and Bourkes keet were cleaning their plates.
So the final count is in for my own “There's Beak on My Beak” contest and it is overwhelming approval of your product! Beak Appetit is a great idea and an outstanding bird food. We hope to be entering your future contests.
Thank you.

The Alex Foundation -
The Alex Foundation was established to support research on psittacine intelligence and communication. The Foundation helps provide funding for Dr. Irene Pepperberg's work with African Grey's - Alex, Griffin, Arthur aka ''Wart'' and Kyaaro. Dr. Pepperberg has developed training techniques that enable Grey parrots not only to produce but also comprehend and use English speech appropriately.
She has also shown that these birds can perform as well as chimpanzees and dolphins on many tasks used to evaluate intelligent behavior. The hope is that demonstrating that parrots are sentient beings will encourage responsible pet ownership, conservation efforts and veterinary research into psittacine diseases.
