Hi! So after my budgie Dib was diagnosed with fatty liver disease, the vet recommended trying to get all of my birds on a pelleted diet. Today is day 1 of introducing my birdies to pellets, I'm trying the method of crushing them up into dust and sprinkling it on wet seeds and eventually...

New budgie owner. I’ve read here and on the internet that an all seed diet is bad, but quality pellets, some seed, and a fresh chop is good. I bought Harrison’s pellets and made fresh chop and an organic seed mix. I plan to feed my budgie twice a day. I am thinking chop sprinkled with seeds in...

Hello all! I haven't posted on this site in years, but I was just reunited with my two budgies this week and I realized how much I missed them and their adorable budgie faces! The birds stayed behind with my parents for a few months while I got settled into a new apartment. They were being...

Hello, I recently took my boys to the vet (to get a bruised cere looked at). As a follow up to my other post a few days ago about the bruised cere: both boys are fine! However, my vet did mention that Caesar was a bit heavy (39 grams..1 gram away from "overweight"), and that Petrie (for being...
