How to get your parakeet to eat fruits and veggies (Toxic Vs Safe)

[@wonderman7166]

I also give my budgies 'Moringa' leaves. They really love that vegetable. I often chop it up into bite size pieces and mix it with bird seeds so they would approach it. 😊

[@joyandblu2605]

Thanks I will try that because every other way doesn’t work for my budgies😊!

How much Morin GMA is safe to give them

[@ErikMyLove]

Hey Guys :D Last year I got my first two budgies, Cookie and Krümel. They were really young and scared of everything. We tried to make veggies and fruit appealing for them, but nothing worked. So my mom had a very funny idea. My budgies absolutely loved millet, so she wrapped some parsley around it and gave it to my birdies. They were used to eat out of our hands at this point, so they weren't scared of the parsley-millet-package. And it worked :D Now we have 6 budgies and they absolutely frickin' love their veggies :D

[@emrearkan8417]

My bird started to eat fruits or veggies like this: i ate an Apple cuz i wanted then My bird came and tryed to eat My fruit first i didnt want him to eat but he bit me. Then i gave him the apple

[@bappa3446]

Thanks a lot bro.... My budgies have started eating vegetables finally. Your trick worked straight away...! I put the veggies on the places they love the most..... And it really worked..... ☺️☺️ I'm just loving it seeing them eating vegetables for for the first time. Thanks again.

[@ShawerKageyama]

My female budgie only approached the veggies as I got a new (male) budgie who ate it first. Both of them doesn’t know what fruits/veggies are and all the methods I tried didn’t work. I’m afraid that my female budgie falls sick not getting any Vitamine. She is already two years old and I only got her a year ago. The male is almost in the same age and got him from a bird breeder and as much as I can tell he never was fed any veggies or fruits before. The same goes to my female, my brothers wife had this beauty as she was few months old but treated her poorly, never gave her different kind of food neither did she know how to tame her and her cage was literally empty (only one perch and a swing was in) the food bowl was on the ground and her water place wasn’t changed for days.. and she lost her trust in humans completely, lucky she slowly trusted me over the year.. now I’m looking everywhere for more methods to get them. I will try again the methods for serval days.. 😥

My parakeet is almost 5 years old. He seems healthy and happy, but his diet mainly consists of store-bought seed, millet once every 3-4 days, and very rarely broccoli. I plan on feeding broccoli and other foods more often, but I have a question. He usually eats his seed one by one, taking about a minute to chew. He has been doing this for 3-4 years, and I am just wondering if this is normal. Is it regurgitation?

[@konstantinagrivas2355]

My budgie is 3 1/2 years old. He also takes about one minute to chew on each seed. I believe it is normal!

Budgies, live longer than 5yrs . Average life span from my experience is 10-12 years tho i did have one that lived for 21yrs !!!. It can be hit and miss with budgies, but if you look after them they can be good for 10 - 12yrs or more if ya lucky🤞🏼 s​@@madhugera5133

Hello, thank you so much for the video. I got 2 budgies yesterday. I had a question, when feeding the vegetables, do you take out the seeds or just leave it there. Thank you in advance.

[@someone-fo8hp]

Not many ways worked for me and my budgies would never eat their veggies. When I put veggies near their favourite perch they just sat on another one. Something that worked a bit for me was taking all the food sources out of my budgies' cage and putting some seeds on top of veggies. This way, they have to eat from the veggies and might nibble it. Make sure that your budgies do eat it though or they might starve.

[@fishhuntgrow7727]

I got soooo lucky with this little dude. I had a quaker when I was a kid for about 5 years before a stray cat snatched and ran (that cat got his the next day), I got this budgie to get some practice for a new white fronted amazon im gonna adopt. I got him yesterday as a baby from the pet store, he already sits on my finger, steps up, and let's me pet him. He's still a little shy and doesn't sing yet, but we are working on r2d2 sounds lol. He didn't want anything to do with us when we first got home, I stuck him on the couch with me and after a movie he stopped flying away from me, another hour he started to step up with a little push up. I don't think this is the way it usually goes. But my point is your budgie is a companion not just an ornament.

[@Mrw5211]

Hello. I feel a bit confused about one vegetable: years ago I was told that parsley is poisonous to parrots, so I've always avoided to give it to my budgies. Now I see in the video that they're eating it, and it is listed as safe in the tablet. Maybe parsley is toxic only for some types of parrots, or it's incorrect that it's harmful to them? In very, very large amounts it's toxic to us, too, and this is another matter.

I sliced a side off a Honey Crisp Apple, put a hole through the center and strung it up with their toys. The Budgies took to it like a toy until they realized it tasted good.

[@BudgieWorld]

True, there are some contradictory information on the internet, and when that happens, I usually refrain from giving it to my budgies. With that being said, in your case, I wouldn't put them inside their cage, but if they are outside the cage, I don't believe the scent is toxic, but if you are worried, just don't let them get on the plant itself.

The seed trick does work but you can’t just sprinkle them on top 🤦‍♂️ you have to chop or blend them up and mix them with their daily seed mix. In my experience this is the only way to get them to try it because they are cautious and reluctant to try new things.

I'm sorry this is irrelevant and very stupid question, but do budgies do well with cats? And is there a way to make budgies and cats friends? Or at least to teach the cats not to run after the budgie and attack it?

[@BudgieWorld]

I know some people do let their budgies with predatory animals, which I am 100% against, you don't know when the cat will lash out and kill the bird. You probably heard about dogs who turned on their owners suddenly with no apparent reason, but if cat did that to a bird, the bird will die, if not from the injury then from the inflammation afterwards either from the cat's claws or saliva.

Handfeed small pieces of lettuce. My budgies are afraid of big sized leaves. Also if you hv other budgies who eat it.. they will follow suit soon since they are social birds.

[@nitink15]

If someone buy budgies from pet store / breeders who follow the multiblend soft food feed like fresh corn, soaked wheat, boiled rice, sprouts, bread, spinach, fenugreek, corriender, French beans, boiled eggs, muskmelon dried seeds, fruits without seeds, millets... The budgies'll readily eat at your home too. In india, breeders follow the weekly diet as per Summer season, Winter season for budgies.
