Care Notes

Common Feeding Mistakes
The biggest mistake is an all-seed diet. Ringnecks love seed, but on its own it is too fatty and lacks key nutrients. Base the diet on quality pellets, add fresh vegetables and some fruit daily, and keep seed as a smaller part. Avoid avocado, chocolate, caffeine and salty foods.
Habitat Requirements
Ringnecks have long tails and need room to move, so go as large as you can, wider rather than taller, with secure bar spacing around 1.5 cm. Add plenty of foraging and chew toys, because a bored ringneck quickly turns to feather plucking or screaming.
Handling & Socialisation
Ringnecks are clever and need daily interaction and several hours out of the cage. Many go through a nippy bluffing stage as youngsters, which patience and steady handling get you through. Keep training short and positive, and they reward you with talking and tricks.

Meet the founders

An Aussie family brand, built for cleaner bird feeding.

Hi, we are Russell and Peita.

Seed Cube started at home with one very determined Alexandrine. After years of cracked plastic, slipped mounts, and constant clean ups, we realised most feeders were not built to handle real birds or daily use.

We set out to build something we would actually trust.
That same focus on strength, stability, and cleaner feeding now guides how we design feeders for daily cage use.

There are now over 10,000 Seed Cubes in use worldwide. We do not build feeders to be cheap. We build them so feeding feels easier and spaces feel calmer.
