The bird food industry has been growing and diversifying over the years in order to seek better nutritional quality, animal welfare and the satisfaction of pet owners. There are a variety of food for birds that differ according to their type and species, and also according to the nutritional levels and quality of the raw material, such as rations from more economical values to higher values, considered premium. This work aimed to survey the calculated and analyzed composition of rations of small parrots sold in the Metropolitan Region of Recife. Eight types of diets for small parrots were analyzed, being sold in closed packages with an average weight of 500 grams. Percentage of each ration was evaluated through manual separation of its constituents. Subsequently, quartering was carried out in order to homogenize the sample, and then grinding in a 2mm sieve. And then already crushed, they were used to perform the analysis of crude protein, mineral matter, dry matter and moisture. To analyze the significance of the values, the SAS statistical program was used, which uses several normality tests and for the homogeneity test, the Barllet's and Levene's tests were used to compare the means. In the analysis of the composition of the feed, it was not possible to observe a significant difference (P=0.985) comparing the different types of ingredients with each other. In the analysis of dry matter and moisture, the values obtained did not show a significant difference (p>0.05) in relation to the value shown on the packaging. And for the statistical test of crude protein (p=0.0007) and mineral matter (p=0.0004) there was a significant difference, thus presenting a divergence in relation to the nutritional composition of the different rations compared to what was specified on the packages, which may have a relationship with the price as protein is the second most expensive ingredient in the diet, and its levels may have been lowered to reduce costs. And the mineral matter that also has its value and importance in the feeding of birds, having its levels below those informed in the composition.
