    I’ve looking to switch up my bird’s diet to a healthier one but I’m not sure where to start. What do you guys suggest?
  2. Diet and Nutrition
    Hi, I'm here because I would like some help with the proportions of food that should be given to a budgie... how many vegetables? how much fruit? other snacks? I have some ideas of the vegetables and fruits that budgies can eat thanks to other forum posts, but none of them come out with the...
  3. Diet and Nutrition
    I just got a budgie about 10 days ago, and I've been able to get him to eat his regular seed mix from my hand, but he never eats any millet, and I'm unsure if I can train him using only the seed mix, since he has it in his cage most of the time. Additionally, I tried giving him cucumbers, but he...

  5. Diet and Nutrition
    A few days ago I was running out of food for my budgie so bought him more, but I couldn't find the stuff he usually eats so I got him a different brand. He hasn't been eating it unless I hand feed it to him (which is weird, because we're really not bonded yet) If he does eat off of anything...

    Hello! So I rescued 4 budgies a week ago, and I have been trying (there have been a few bumps in the road) to get them acclimated to this new lifestyle. While trying to help them, I noticed that they will not eat anything but a seed diet. When I fill it with the pellets that are supposed to...
  7. New Budgie Arrivals
    About a month ago I got a gift of three budgies from my uncle. I named them Hulk, Lemon, and Fern. When I got them, they were in a small black cage, so I asked to switch them to a bigger one. I put lentils, half a plum, and tomato slices in a bowl for them, and filled cups around their cage with...

    Is there a significant size difference between the Harrison's Fine pellets and the ZuPreem Natural budgie sized pellets? The Harrison's Super-Fine seem very small. Opinions and comparison photos would be appreciated.;)
  11. Recipes of foods for Budgies
    So, I was wondering if someone could help me with a chop recipe, for my budgie Linn. She just got used to eating fruits and veggies, so something of small quantity, and good for her to get to eat it I was thinking? Also some advice of how to get her to eat it and how to stock it, since it would...

    Hello, i’ve been trying to get my budgie jax to eat pellets for a few weeks now. He has been eating the Healthy Select Seed mix forever, (and when we got him from the petco last year we were told that’s what he was eating as well). A few weeks ago, our vet had told us to switch from seeds to...
  13. Budgie Behavior
    Hello my feathered owner companions! This is actually my first time on a Budgie blog. The first thing that came to mind was a question that I've been wanting to receive an answer from. I have two budgies (currently) and there is this one thing that keeps bothering me because I have no idea as to...

    Hi Everyone! I recently learned about the danger of fatty liver disease in budgies, so I'm looking to improve the diet of my birds. Currently, they eat "premium" seed bought from the local pet shop, millet spray, and Kracker budgie sticks, as well as vegetables every couple of days. Correct...
  15. General Budgie Talk
    I have been attempting to transition my budgie to Zupreem pellets (parakeet size), i’ve got the fruitblend in hopes he’ll pick the yellow ones since they look like seeds. When I hand them to him (in it’s full form) he drops it quickly. I’ve been layering the pellets on top of his Zupreem seed...
  16. Budgie Behavior
    Hi there! Three days ago my i got two young budgies as pets. I did a lot of research and they seem to be doing perfectly fine! They are eating, perching, chattering away with each other. I put on some music which they really seem to like and I talk to them a lot. One of my budgies, Kiwi, seems...

    Hi guys, Because Ollie has bumblefoot I have had to separate Ollie and Daisy into two cages so Daisy doesn't get his antibiotics. During the day they get out of cage time to fly around and be affectionate with each other. In the evening I put them back into separate cages. I feel bad though...

    Hi guys, so I wanted to share the recipe of this delicious soup that my mum makes (I'm half Greek, her side :)). Since moving out I had to get the recipe off of her so I can indulge in it. :P It's winter now here in Aus so I just made a big pot of this for myself and my partner for tonight's...
