Sprouted Seeds | Healthy Food for Pet Birds

[@dennythebudgie]

hello everybirdie! i've decided to do another video on how to sprout seed for birds. they are high in vegetable proteins, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and chlorophyll. sprouted seeds are lower in fat, as the process of sprouting utilizes the fat in the seed to start the growing process - thus reducing the fat stored in the seeds, it is important for breeding or molting birds, sprouted seeds also serve as a great rearing and weaning food as the softened shell is easier to break by chicks and gets them used to the texture of seeds (´･ᴗ･ ` ) also great for bird that hates fruits and veggies (｡•́︿•̀｡) common causes for sprouts to turn out inedible • seeds are allowed to dry out • seeds are left in standing water • temperature is high or too low • insufficient rinsing • dirty equipment • insufficient airflow info from || bit.ly/2LWxxtz

Hello!!!!

[@ala3819]

Thank you! (Btw I don’t even have a bird but after watching you I feel like I can get a bird one day and watch your vids to help!)

[@dennythebudgie]

[@benstaubitz1036]

So you can do this with any type of budgie seed?

[@GodLovesUs.LoveOurGod]

Hi! Do i have to rinse the seeds everyday?

[@bakedbeans8339]

I'm definitely going to try this, I've gotten all of my birds by surprise, so I just did as my mother told me. But the thing is, she got these birds and her information from a not so friendly pet store in a flea market. So now I'm going to try to help them transition from all seed to some seed and many vegetables and fruits. Wish me luck!

[@halobird7832]

Good luck!

[@urmom-ts3wc]

how are they?

[@secretingredients8817]

Good luck

[@HellaFuckingKawaii]

My mom surprisingly did the same thing.

[@kazuhashi_]

Good luck

[@anjacveklo]

Also, don't forget to wash the sprouts daily even when they are ready to be served otherwise they will get moldy. I didn't this mistake once..

[@tumbleweed2240]

I recommend soaking finished product in vinegar for a few minutes to kill bacteria and rinse thoroughly with water

[@keshavbhalla3102]

I just watched your old video about making sprots. But this way looks easier and I am definitely gonna try it! :D

[@benstaubitz1036]

Thanks for many tips and funny and interesting videos I’m so sorry that Denny is gone and wasn’t the bird you expected but I hope you know he’s in a better place we’re he can fly and never stop uploading I will always watch your videos!

Tip: you can also use the supermarket bird food to grow your own bird food! It usually takes 1-2 weeks

Wow I never knew millet seeds could grow o sprouts 🌱🐦

I have a question. I wanted to sprout some seeds too. But the Millet I have is mixed with other types of seeds. Do i have to separate the Millet from the other seeds or is it ok if i add in the other seeds?

[@budgieyy]

Arte y Naturaleza no, you can sprout all the seeds. But, a big caution, sprouting seeds must be carefully done. I have seen videos where they add a drop of grapefruit extract or ( I think apple cider vinegar) to inhibit bacteria growth. Rinse once daily, during the 3 days, or more is better. Also, be sure to smell the sprouts for freshness, throw away if a bad smell. The general advice is to only serve to molting budgies or those you want to breed. That is because, it puts your budgie into breeding mode. Which can cause many problems. Egg binding, etc, etc. Research this topic more.
