I am planning on getting a couple of blood parrots sometime soon. I am ordering from Kensfish and figure I might as well get some pellts now. What size do you think would be suitable for baby (silver dollar size) parrots?
what size pellet for blood parrot

It will depend on the size of the BP, my larger (~4.5") one can fit a medium Hikari Cichlid Gold pellet in its mouth, it takes a while sometimes but he eats it. My smaller BP (~3.5") eats 1mm New Life Spectrum Cichlid pellets about 3 at a time. I would probly start with Hikari's mini pellets.
I have 2 bp they had a hard time with the pellets, so i switched to the cichlid sticks and they love em.

I feed ours Hikari Cichlid Pellets baby size (way smaller than they need) and OSI Blood Red Parrot Pellets small size.
