We live in the Deep South, Augusta, Georgia, USA. I grow millet for our budgies to dine on. They love it especially when it's green. They also love dandelion greens which are available here all year. I peel two oranges for breakfast for my husband and I, which leaves a bit of orange flesh inside the peels. Then I go out and pull up a few dandelion weeds from the front yard and feed the birds dandelions, orange peells and millet grass. Millet grass only seasonally has seeds in it and only during our short winter does the millet have dry seeds. Winter for us is about seven weeks long. My millet patch also attracts beautiful wild birds.

Thanks for great videos! My budgies wouldnt eat any veggies but corn and carrots. The past 3 days I gave them lots of leafy greens, tomatoes, fruits, ect. They never touched. This morning gave chop mix again and peeked in to find them demolishing it. Thanks so much as I am new to budgies!!

I just wanted to drop you a line, your advice for budgie feeding was exactly what I needed. I found a 8 wks budgie and wanted to start him or her out right.....so I started the chop in mornings and mixed a bit with seed.....and hung greens as well around the cage.....I put seeds in the noon hour and take out at evenings.....and low and behold Pretty Bird eats very little seeds, and loves his greens all day....apple banana and especially boiled egg once a week....I saved the millet for the training, now use it in and out of the cage.....I only give 1 tbls of seed a day and take out at nighttime....in mornings, he is so hungry and eats greens immediately. I now need to find good quality pellets or seeds for that tablespoon he does eat. Thank you so much oh, P.S. I refresh the greens half way through the day....who wants to eat limp kale?

I agree with you, a varied diet is the best diet. Something I dislike about cockatiel and lovebird seed mixes is that they have sunflower and safflower seeds which should only be treat. So if I had a cockatiel or a lovebird, I would give them a small amount of budgie seeds in their bowl and put the safflower and sunflower seeds in foraging toys

Things have changed a lot in the bird world especially when it comes to diet. My poor Cockatiel only ate seeds. I did give some veggies and fruit. But, her main food was seed because that's what was recommended. Maybe that's why she only lived for 7 years. :(

Ah, such a nice video. Yep, my 4 budgies are doing much better than when I first got them in March 2018 from a humane center. They had only been feeding on seeds for years, so they were very stubborn in trying any vegetables. Well, sure enough, when I started giving them chop as suggested in a recent video, they started eating the chop. Although you have not mentioned sproutings in this video (that was a great video you put out) I have been making sproutings from mung beans, lentils, and peas; whoa... this has been so good. Although they like to toss the sproutings around, they are nibbling at them daily. I have been trying to get them to eat more pellets, those promoted by Marlene McCohen, but my budgies show very little interest. At least I know that I've made progress and they look good. Please keep these informative and educational videos coming. It's always great to see your birds as well. This video with Jingles and Willow at the end was such a delight.

@jima9356
@jima9356 3 года назад
@@ADDrecords I started off by going to the supermarket and getting ready made alfalfa sprouts that you put on sandwiches and in salads. Then I started making sprouts with lentils and mung beans that you get at natural food stores. If you are getting one budgie for now, start making small quantities of sprouts, like a few spoonfuls at a time, since they sprout into a large quantity and spoil in about a week. Check out Donna's Love of Pets video "How to sprout for your birds | Sprouting for Parrots", from March 16, 2020. You will see the things/utensils used to make many varieties of sprouts. Your budgie will love them.

Hi Donna - I'm researching Bourkes diets for my new book - I was pleased to hear you say they eat bugs. I'm with you, I don't want to feed bugs (when I did, my Amazon CRUNCHED on a mealworm, so good for him, so painful for me!) But I don't think most people know this. Anyway, I'm watching your video as part of my research on Australian parakeets- :)
@Loveofpets
@Loveofpets Год назад
That's wonderful! My Bourke's eat almost everything. They loves greens and all veggies. They don't eat too much fruit but enjoy apples, blueberries and strawberries. They love eating the seeds off the sides of strawberries. They love micro greens and herbs. They like small varies seeds and sprouted seeds, legumes and grains are their favorite. I wish I could deal with the bugs but I cant.

Donna, you are the best. This food video for tiny birds is so important. I pick wild grasses occasionally, for my 4 budgies. A budgie can live 20 years! But most die before age 8 because forced to eat only seed and never allowed to fly. Such a sad, sad treatment.

I have yet to feed mine bugs. 🤮 I once tried dried mealworms with my previous canaries but that as far as I've gotten. I mean if they definitely need them I'd feed them. Variety is key. I feed a mixture of different dried seeds, bird bread, pellets, sprouted seeds, veggie chop, soaked seeds etc. I try and mix it up so they don't get bored. Plus some nutriberries, pellet berries and avicakes.

Patricia Davidson you have to keep trying. You can’t just give up because your bird initially won’t eat it. There are so many different ways to get your birds to eat a proper diet. Seeds are extremely fatty and not a complete diet. Your bird WILL get fatty liver disease if he’s on an only seed diet.

I love your diet for your birds! And all your birds are beautiful💞 Im always trying to update my birds feed to give them the biggest variety possible! For the past year or so, Ive fed my 2 green cheeked conures a chop in the morning with atleast green, orange and red vegetables but typically more colours aswell if I can! After they have eaten some chop, I put some TOPS pellets in foraging toys, so if they're hungry throughout the day, they can go to the foraging toys and be enriched and busy whilst eating! I personally believe also that TOPS pellets are the best, they are also cold pressed so the nutrients stay intact! Then at dinner I feed some cooked grains like qinuoa, brown rice and red lentil pasta. Along with the cooked grain mix I feed some sprouts, I sprout 2 different types of parrot mixes, lentils, split peas and sunflower seeds. I also feed a dry grain mix along with the sprouts and cooked grains, just to give them those healthy fats. The dry grain mix consists of 2 parrot mixes, chia seeds, oats and coconut. The birds get nuts and fruit as treats, if they do get fed fruit, its always berries because of all the antioxidant properties! I would love some feedback if you have time! I'm always trying to improve the lives of my two bubs the most I can!! ❤️

Plus yes of course i give him some berries and chop! Love your vids., I also wanted to mention that the colored pellets are colored with food coloring, at least the brand my bird eats.

Hi Donna, do you have any advice for lovebird feather plucking? And what type of food is suitable for feather growth? I brought my lovebird to the vet to check, however the vet said it was a skin irritation, didn’t mention that it has parasites or mites. I tried change of environment and giving more attention but the plucking still continues. My current guess right now was allergies, thinking it could be food allergies or allergies caused by the surrounding. Do you still have more advice on this issue? Thanks in advance! And thank you again for making videos and giving practical advices for birds owners!

Hi, there is an article in the Whole Dog Journal this month (February, 2022) about toxic copper sulfate (and also copper "proteinate" which is copper chelated to amino acids) in commercial dog food that can easily result in a toxic overload of copper. This is because in nature, the body does not encounter these unnatural forms of copper at these relatively high concentrations. So, of course, I got out my various bird pellets and to my horror see that Zupreen and Harrison contain copper sulfate. These bags are now in the trash. Roudybush does not list any copper supplement. That does not mean they don't add one. It may be that they add copper sulfate but don't list it because of the controversy. I will call the company tomorrow to try to find out. Moral of the story is that pellets are artificial in various ways that we know about and maybe in many ways we don't. Yes, they provide some nutrients not found in a millet diet but they also lack good things found in seed. You are right, Donna, captive birds need fresh variety. Thank you for making such informative videos. They help all of us continue to try to do better as pet owners of dogs and birds.

Hi, yes my canaries love the pellets. I feed the canary sized ZuPreem pellets to my canaries, budgies, bourkes, lovebird, Sierra, Turquoisine etc. I find feeding the small pellets there is less waste. I am starting to feed my Cockatiels the canary sized pellets as they waste the larger pellets because when they bite into them the rest of the pellet breaks off and lands outside of the cage or on the cage floor if it does not land in the bowl

Try fresh thyme. Budgies go crazy for the tiny leaves. Try to buy it as a plant and just cut them some every day. We had a budgie that absolutely refused every food beside millet seeds that fell in love with thyme right away. Try putting a very wet leaf of romaine lettuce laying flat on the surface of their play area. Budgies love the texture and might bathe on it and after a few days of a fresh leaf every day they might start to nibble.

Grit is not needed for parakeets or parrots. Grit is for birds that can't hill their seeds such as pigeons and doves. Grit can impact the birds crop. Bird charcoal is given mainly to canaries but other birds can be offered it but not necessary. The purpose of coal is when I bird feels unwell it will eat the coal to make them feel better. This is what I have heard so not totally sure if it's true. I will ask my avian vet next time I see him. Egg food is giving when birds are breeding.

Eatting the same thing day after day is boring to us, why should it be any different for birds? I try to give better advice to this gal I help at work but its a struggle just to make sure the wator is changed and the cage gets clean. I feel so bad for her Teil. Stuck in a cage all its life meant for a budgie and only seed. u_u Cant be mad at her because she has mental limitations. If I can ever get that bird from her Im doing it. Probably will never be friendly but i dont care. We just had a whistling session last night! At least thats one way I can connect.
