[@Indusxstan]

Thank you!

[@ashleyhodson1228]

How much of the rice and beans?

[@pamluh]

Dang, this is like... Good enough for people. I'd eat that 😂

[@luciakiwi2681]

Yeah totally 👌

[@baller5949]

Me too haha!

[@laviri]

I have eaten chop so many time 😂. It’s just missing lemon juice and salt. Give a try.

[@swissamerican1138]

Straight to the point right away! It's wonderful that we don't have to sit through 20-30 minutes before we learn what we came here for. I appreciate the content of this channel so much!

[@blendedfortune175]

“The little handle thing” she is so precious 🥺🥺

[@antoniakogut6664]

I came to comment to see if anyone else caught on to that

[@sherrigodbey9244]

So you caught that too?! I laughed out loud although I’m by myself and had to exclaim , “It’s a stem!!” I think Donna is a precious and genuine lady. Watching her videos is nearly like being invited into her home and getting personalized instructions on bird care.

[@ashleyrajub5199]

I want to be your bird right now because u make delicious food Everyday I must see your video because I cannot live without seeing and hearing your birds and ur voice

[@paulorr9262]

If I come back after death; I want to be one of her birds. Great food.

[@annastink]

you always have great info and you are just such a sweet person i’m glad i found your channel

[@malcolmmartin1227]

Same I LOVE THIS CHANNEL

[@FeatheredFlock]

That lovebird is probably the most gorgeous lovebird I've ever seen.

[@megsutube1815]

Thank you for showing me how to make xhop. I tried it once and it came out a liquidy mess. Now I know why. My birds eat fresh veggies every day. By the way, you are looking really great in this video!

[@arsh.k3300]

Omg thank you! My budgies are very picky eaters. From what I have observed the younger budgies only want to eat seeds and millet but the older ones love greens

[@Silverserri]

"Hi, my name is Donna and this is my lovebird Sprinkles" Sprinkles looks at the camera and tilts his head like "Yeah, it's me!" That was too perfect and adorable!

[@melissahiltz7491]

I would like to say a huge thank you to you for sharing this recipe! My featherbaby conure has been mainly seed fed and she absolutely LOVES this chop! I cannot thank you enough for this easy to follow video tutorial! I see you love your feather babies as much as I love mine! I had to substitute the rice and omitted the zucchini but she’s lovin it!!!!!!!! Thank you a again!!

[@Loveofpets]

Your welcome! So happy your conure enjoys the chop 😀

[@jasonpurcellau]

Gosh your birds eat better than i do!

That chop looks good.

[@sherrigodbey9244]

Hi Donna! I just love watching your videos and seeing your lovely pet birds. I’m learning so much from your pet bird channel and also love your bird room set up. You have a lot of patience, wisdom, and creativity. I look forward to watching ALL your videos!

[@Loveofpets]

Hi. I am happy you enjoy my videos. Thanks for your support 😀

[@hurstjames6199]

Hello how're you doing hope you're safe due to the covid 19 pandemic?

[@wick3012]

Love it. I only have 2 birds, an eclectus and a cockatiel. I only make a small batch so I don't even need to freeze it. I give my eclectus fresh chop twice daily, and my cockatiel (prefers his seeds) only gets it once a day. It usually doesn't last more than 4-5 days so it stays fresh in the fridge.

[@crazygirlontheblock311]

Thank you for this,i was wondering how long it stays fresh!

[@nandab813]

Hello, I have been looking for this information for so long in all videos but no one tells how many times to offer this chop to the birds. Just adopted a female cocateil and she does not like much of the vegetables. I am so confused on what to feed her as most of the videos tell that millets and seeds are to be given sparingly and we do not get pellets in my country. It will be very kind of you if you could share your birds diet with me. Thanks

[@ParrotTown]

Great video 👏👏💖 can never get enough good recipes. Hope you’re planning on doing a whole recipe series 💖🥦🦜 I think this may be my favorite of all your vids😉👍

[@Aldengibbsacdal3985]

Thanks for the info i understand it very well coz you have a clear english pronuncition ...more topic pls god blessed

[@jeannehenry6315]

Enjoyed seeing your bird room. Thanks for all the good info.

[@Loveofpets]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Indusxstan]

As I watched this video (I am a middle aged man BTW) I started to see the delicious almighty chop from the point of view of one of the pet birds, 🐦 (lol) , instead of a pet owner which I am (planning to add a parrot to my dog, cat and aquarium fish), and suddenly I felt a deep sense of gratitude on the behalf of all the birds to OP alias Parrot Mama 😘 Even as a non-parrot I think that chop is a more balanced diet than what I eat 😂😂

[@dmswan3172]

What a wonderful, healthy chop - looks so good - would make a tasty and healthy salad for humans too!🐤🐦🌞

[@danif7757]

Your chop looks awesome. My issue has been making chop for just 1 budgie. Even a small amount of veggies makes so much chop. More than 1 budgie needs lol I've been freezing it in ice cube trays to make a single little serving and then move those into a ziplock, which I learned from Sophie (Bird Nerd Sophie)

[@irisarroyo6272]

thank you for the video!!!! its grocery shopping day too I'm so excited to try this out for my babies

[@annekap.1656]

Just found this videoand the chop looks great. Thanks for sharing it.

[@Loveofpets]

Our pleasure!

[@reneegarcia9661]

Also Donna your birds are beautiful

[@Loveofpets]

Thank you

[@1amnickii329]

I will surely prepare this for my Clair thank you so very much.

[@jase123111]

Another great video! I think half the fun of keeping birds is cooking for them!!! I add fresh herbs too, like basil, mint, coriander etc. Also smashed up hard boiled eggs with the shells.

[@Loveofpets]

Fresh Herbs are a wonderful addition to chop. My birds loves herbs especially Basil

[@chrish564]

I love my discovery of cutting down the veggies on a towel and pressing out all the extra liquid so it isn't goopy soup. No matter how much I do that I cannot get much liquid out of peppers so those I drain in a mesh strainer and press.

[@barbnbirds]

Hello Donna that is a meal fit for a king and Queen and making me hungry.I am going to try and do that for my bird.I never knew I could give my bird red bell pepper plus the seeds wow !!!!! I wish you were marketing your chop. Wonderful video as always , thanks!

Hi. This is pure greatness. What a beautiful video trust me it makes me happy seeing how much love Donna has for her pets. This is amazing & I'm sure your birds enjoy their chop. I like seeing your budgies enjoying their chop dish!!! Standing ovation for you. Donna, you, Sprinkles & your birds all look beautiful. Much respect this video definitely got my like.

Thank you 😊

[@sharonkbutz3754]

Thank you so much for this video ❤! I have been feeding my parrot seeds for years and some people food from time to time. Also did not know they could not have salt . This video is a great eye opener! I will be feeding the things you suggested in your chop recipe today! So grateful for this Information . 😊😊😊❤

[@michellesnow1416]

Watching video's about making chop makes me hungery. Thank you. I will be trying this out for our birb.

[@hurstjames6199]

Hello how're you doing hope you're safe due to the covid 19 pandemic?

[@helens3230]

Yes! Ty so much. I tried this today and it worked. My parakeet loves to eat some chop.... I didn’t do all of it yet - but I did mix Vegis with his seeds and he’s starting to eat it. B4 I never chopped and he would just throw them out of the dish.

[@stephaniegerbrandt6977]

Thank you for sharing this recipe! I just made my birds the same chop and they finally love chop! I also love the idea of them all eating from the same big tray!

[@Loveofpets]

Your welcome! Glad your birds loved it, makes me happy!

I lovee all your birds , they seem to really enjoy their food 😍😄 I made a video on my channel of my own version of Bird Chop. Thanks for inspiring me!!💚🍀 God Bless

[@vanissaberg5824]

It took some time but now my budgies love their chop! Making sure you pat everything as dry as possible is key to a nice crunchy chop that doesn't turn into mush. I also mix in a few spices and herbs from the spice cabinet as well as some rolled oats and seeds that helps soak up more moisture. I feed it to them frozen first thing in the morning after bringing them out of their cage and it thaws at room temperature. It doesn't seem to go sour as quickly when I feed it this way. They sure love their carrots and get carrot juice all over their faces lol.

[@nikkihoffman2891]

Excellent video. Thank you!!

[@mermaidswhimsy8601]

Thank you, I think my birds are going to love it. I hope to try it out!

[@patriciaelg1464]

Enjoyed your video. Wow, your birds are beautiful. I will try adding the beans and lentils. Right now my 2 budgies are just learning to eat chop. I will try withholding their seeds and pellets when I give them the chop. Thank you.

[@joyavenzant5086]

Wish i would chop all that up by hand lol food processor is on the list getting two cockatiels soon and this was an eye opener

[@topchick2108]

you are better then my mum used to be at cooking...lucky birds:)

I have two kakariki’s and I’m trying to explore there options for food because i bought them from Craigslist and the lady seemed to only feed them seeds, since I’ve had them they seemed to love the fruits and vegetables I give them so a chop would be great for me to try and make them

[@JiggyTheFemaleRingneck]

This video has really helped me a lot. I’ve always wondered how people made food like this for their birds, im going to buy a food processor now and start doing this too and use this recipe. Thank you so much

Thank you so much for the great info. A long time ago when I had parakeets I fed them chopped parsley, and I used to make a birdy cornbread w pumpkin for my breeding lovebirds. I had a nanday for 26 years and she would have loved your chop. I'm hoping to get a couple of linnies and I will definitely use your recipe. Thank you. 💙

[@CMDR_Verm]

Great video and thank you. I am very much more educated on how to feed my bird and I am going to try the things you have described. I am very interested in discovering whether my parakeet will eat vegetables etc because he certainly is not fussed on fruit and I've been advised countless times that fruit is a big deal. I'll let you know 🙂

[@nancyvasquez8644]

Thx for the video. I have a picky cockatiel who is not crazy eating veggies or fruits. I mush all his veggies in the chopper so I can put about 1 teaspoon of his seed and pellets every morning (the veggies are separated in very small containers and in freezer). My Hahns, he eats everything but I notice he's not to crazy having the veggies mushed, actually he likes it in small pieces so I have to cut it by hand.

Very good information on making chop. Now I have to write it all down and start putting it together. I am feeling good that my budgies will finally start eating healthy food. In a prior video, you mentioned sprouting; would appreciate a video on sprouting. Your birds look so good; healthy and beautiful; they show a lot of energy also.

Hi, that's great your Ringneck liked the chop. I feed pellets the rest of the day and a small amount of seed mix in the evening along with treats during the day. I give pieces of almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds and nutriberries. I give them as a snack or for training.

Hi love your videos. I am going to make this chop. I have 1 cockatiel, 1 budgies and one society finch. The only one I do not let out of the cage is the society finch. do you think I should be letting her out? I do not see many videos about finches.

[@Loveofpets]

Hi, glad you are enjoying my videos. I would let the society finch out if I had one. I have a have finch and she is out everyday. I used to have zebra finches and a few other finches and I let them out. They are smart and knew when it was time to go back in. I would put a piece of spray millet in the cage and they would go in when I said it's bedtime. I hope your birds will enjoy the chop.
