The chemical dyes used to artificially color food can be very hard on kidneys and other organs. Please buy a good quality pellet that doesn't contain artificial dyes. Meantime, if your new bird hasn't already had his well-bird avian vet exam, this is the time! If he had his exam already, call your vet, describe the problem to a vet tech, and ask if your bird will heal on natural-color food or if he needs meds to rehydrate him and heal his kidneys.
