HOW TO GET YOUR BIRD TO EAT VEGGIES | Make Your Bird Eat Vegetables 

My birds loved lettuce from day one when I started feeding them as time went on I started giving more veggies they love fruits and veggies

Saw this video just before giving them carrot, cauliflower and bell pepper.. The only vegetables they eat.. 😊🐥

Cutting a corn on the cob into 1” pieces and skewering them onto the wall of the cage let’s them play and eat.

When we first got Archie he would not touch veggies at all! After a while of me just offering them in different ways and different vegetables he started eating them 😂

Hi! I'm a new bird owner, I just recently got 2 budgies and planning on getting a Conure. I've been watching your videos and they're so helpful! In fact, this video helped my Budgie to try a taste of green beans!

I had no idea some birds won't eat veggies. I've only had mine for a year and a half, but they eat pellets, veggies, pretty much anything offered. I've switched their pellet type 3 times, attempting to find the right balance between nutrition and waste, and they never refused to eat. (Started with Zupreem FruitBlend, switched to Top's for nutrition, and then Hari Tropican Alternative to stay healthy but with way less wasted food. They seem to be willing to eat any veggies and fruit offered (carrots, leafy greens, broccoli and cauliflower, herbs, berries, banana, etc). Sounds like I got really lucky! They just love eating!

This was just in time i’m starting to convert my bird to vegetables! Thank you!

First! Love the videos I recently adopted a neglected cockatiel who had bad care and was on seeds for 8+ years, she is untame and I am just switching her on pellets Rn, and trying veggies too this is helpful!

Today was my bird Kiwis first day of trying vegetables, and I can confirm that eating the veggies before them will help alot! Ty for the tips ^^

Because of Australia's current bad spring weather, all my garden veggies are seeding. Turns out my conure loves the flowers and seeds from kale,coriander, parsley etc. We just walk around the garden in the morning and I pick her off bits of plant to eat between her screams at the local native cockatoos. 😀

This channel for sure deserves more subs,more views, in total=many more love

I just got a Nanday Conure yesterday and have been loving him. Watched these videos for ages before getting a bird to help me understand them and know what to feed them, etc etc. I love him so much already and have been wanting a bird for ages. He's sitting in my room next to me rn with the cage open so if he wants to leave he can. He's so cute :D

Awesome video! I just got my very first bird 2 days ago and your channel has been so helpful. Thank you for all your hard work!

Pumpkin bullying Pineapple off the plate.🤣🤣🤣

Tysm for making these videos, they are extremely helpful and informative. I’m getting a sun conure and really needed a refresher on all these kinds of information even though I’ve had several other birds before.

Great video! Your greencheeks are soooo cute! ❣️

When I adopted a 5yr old conure who didn't have much experience with fresh veggies and primarily ate fruity pellets and fruit, safe to say he didn't like veggies. After I quickly replaced the fruity pellets with non-sugary ones because that was an easy switch (and I didn't want him to go hungry when he was experimenting with veg and trying out bird chop), this is what worked for me on the veggie front: When giving new foods, cut it up into small bits that resemble their pellets. Large bits or a whole piece of anything can be daunting for a smaller bird who doesn't know what it is. My bird was more likely to try it when it was chopped up. Other than corn, peas, and peppers, carrots usually are one of the easier and healthiest veg to get fruit lovers to eat since for a veg, it has some natural sugars that make it more appealing. Green veg was a harder sell. When eating it in front of him didn't work, sometimes I pretend I have a yummy treat in my hand and feed it to him directly in tiny bite size bits, instead of just including it in the chop. When they reject a veg, keep on trying. For some green vegs, it took 6 times for him to start eating it and not outfight rejecting it. Then it was a lot easier to incorporate. Oh and try different parts of the veg. For example, my lovie loves the florets of broccoli but my conure didn't like them, instead he prefers the stalk which is funny but works perfectly. And experiment around with raw vs cooked. Good luck!

I love your videos they helped me so much as a new bird owner to know what to get and what not to get thank you so much :)

Love this video, thank you so much for this tips🦜🦜🥰

Thank you! All your videos are really helpful! Because I'm getting two green cheeks next week

Your birds are soooo cute!!!💕💗

You're literally my favourite RU-vidr. You help me and others so much, i really appreciate your effort to making these videos.

Thank for making your videos bird-sound free so I can watch it late at night without waking my birds up, hysterically :D

Thank you!😍so much for this video it really helped😇🦜🦜

Super cool video!

Hi, Won! Love your videos!🐥💕

Just found ur Yt because of Denny the budgie

That was helpful.

She always have a helpful content 😌

Omg ur so underated but tysm ♡♡♡

Really helful thanks

A fun tip to get ur bird to eat veggies especially if they don’t like them even at the sight of them is to hide very small veggie bits into sunflower seed shells, just to get it into your birds system. This should be a last resort though because we don’t want to stress our birds out if they can get stressed by this. But, I tried this with my sun conure and it works wonderfully

how your channel has grown I have been here since 100 subs, and now you have nearly 20k good job keep going and about the veggies, I gave him veggies since he came to my home, but he did come for a pet store and they only gave him seed, so it was hard, but I mixed the veg with his seed and he got a tast of the veg and he loved it.

I love your channel I got another bird since my other passed and I am learning more

The things you teach us about your birds do this also apply to parakeets because that’s what I have

Love your channel and videos! You are doing a great job! Stick with it! We have a pineapple gcc also. Murder Bob (our mascot cat) loves him so much.

Your birds are soooooooooooo cute 😍 💕 💖 💓

I was seeing your video and I just think to try this for my parrot to eating vegetables and fruit thankful to your video this is so helpful my parrot is healthy and wealthy 😊 Thanks❤🌹

The cupcake liner treat I will use it to get them to eat vegetables.

i don't even have birds but I watch your videos to see the cute conures

I'm still working on getting my birds to eat a variety of veggies but they do like broccoli tips, so I'm working with that right now. I also feed them oats which they really like. I'll definitely use your tips to try to get them to eat other stuff as well!

I'm getting a bird tonight and I'm looking for all the tips I can get lmao. I had 2 parakeets before but they were extremely picky and nervous from their previous home we rescued them from, so I'm trying to make this next lil buddy happier :D

Hi I'm new here, your Amazon store is amazing thank you

I agree with the be patient part because I’ve been trying to get my birds to eat veggies for months and they finally started eating spinach

❤❤❤

I’m wrighting down notes because in i few weeks i need to be in quarentien and i get to have my aunts birds and train them while in quarentien :)

I feed my flock of 9 the birdtricks seasonal feeding system. For some reason the combo of veggies in their recipes are really good for convincing picky eaters to eat veggies. I've also found that by simply leaving the chop in their cage, and removing their food for at least an hour or two, they're more likely to at least give vegetables a try. Often it's from boredom when they finally try it. My blind birds are the hardest to get into vegetables because birds are very visual eaters. It took me 3 months to get my blind IRN to eat chop, and now shes one of my most consistent chop eaters.

Video gut ❤❤

Maassa seu vídeo! um abraço e fica com Deus!

I'm from belgium, so I learned my bird to eat chicory. I just tried a bunch of vegetables to see what they like best. Bell Pepper, carrots, some chicory and mais were the winners, though also cucumber, broccoli and cauliflower were eaten.

I love watching your videos. I would love if you start recording in 4K. it will show the beauty of our birds! I have a turquoise conure myself.

your channel has been so helpful to me so thanks to you. Can u make a video about the potty train as well?

I have my birb from 2 months ago Or somthing like this .. she was eating only seeds but after month of taming and learning I got her to eat veggies and fruits and a lot of things that she was afraid of haha now she is eating anything I give it to her .. the most important point to get your birb to eat anything you want him to eat by keeping the food by her area so she can feel comfortable and after while the birb will try to know it ! Hope that’s gonna help.

Nice! Zero dislikes like it should be

I like your videos👍👍👍👍👍😊😊😊

Thank you so much for this! I recently adopted a budgie and cut a piece of carrot for him about a day ago. He didn't even touch it. He seems to only eat birdseeds, but I'm trying to mix up his diet a little, just so he gets every nutrient he needs :)

My parrot loves vegetables.

Brilliant! Where did you purchase the crystal clear hanging ball that you hang herbs and other vegetables in their cage?

Excellent video. Still couldn't get my little stinker to do more than steal and fling veg

Your videos are so helpful! I’m a new Quaker mom and need help! I’m going to try all these ideas, I also am trying to get him to eat pellets. Your pellet video is wonderful too! Wish me luck! Thank you!

Thankyou i will try it today i just bought my cockateil 3 days ago and it's only eating mellets so i will chop some veggies and mix his food in it ❤

After watching this vid I wanna make chop for me too 😫😁 deliciouses

When we put red bell pepper into our bird’s chop she will only eat that and nothing else, so we’ve relegated those to treat food rather than part of the chop.

My conure will eat everything in its path, and my cockatiel will look at it with disgust. 😆

nice , by the way i gave8 conures so ya its a lot of work to do but there like my kids, thanks for this information

I guess I'm lucky, my cockatiels loved veggies since the first time i tried to feed it to them :)

Thank you for this video! Currently working on trying to get my 5 month old lovebird to eat veggies and it is very challenging to say the least! I’m gonna try some of the tips you suggested!! I love your channel btw! 🦜❤️😌

I don't have a bird(I can't get one) because my parents don't like birds all that much and I've been doing some research on how to take care of birds and this really helps

I have a blue bird and the mom is yellow and white and little cute red dots on her and like the bird is blue which is really interesting and it’s my bird I made my decision I have a yellow and green bird came out of two yellow birds with a little bit of green

Will try this. Hope I have better luck with veggies than with fruits which my Coco won't even touch.

What an awesome video! Thanks so much for making it :) Any chance you could give me a quick list of your birds’ favorite veggies or herbs? And is that mint your bird is eating at the end of the video? Thanks again!! 🐦❤️

My budgies love wet lettuce

I have a veggie and fruit dish in my birds cage for him to investigate throughout the day

Can you do a sprouting video

Hello my issue is food and u gave me great tips. My guy loves sweet potato also corn and edename. He will get bored so I need to rotate. What about popcorn or rice cakes. I give as treat and he loves. Anyways, thank you and I'll be following

Mousebirds are crazy about green veg if you have rescued one who has to live with you permanently , and they are fruit eating birds but love plain yoghurt too , in my experience , Mousebirds love bananas most but enjoy the bird porridge in the morning when wake up- Birds wake up very early but its fun to wake up before them and watch their reaction to you being awake before them 😘😘😘😘

Oh gosh I’m glad you mentioned about human saliva. I put a macaroni in my mouth to get all salt off before giving it to my Indian Ringneck. Now I know not to do that.

Thank you for the great video ! How to measure the meal size for the bird? When to start? My cockatiel is 7 weeks now

We just bought a sun conure and I can't wait to met him try veggies today. Mine is only 4 months old is there a certain age limit to start them on veggies?

My conure will eat veggies and fruits no problem. My cockatiels however, are insanely picky. They turn their nose up to every fresh fruit or veggie I've tried! But I do feed them pellets instead of seed. Seed only comes out as a treat. But still would be nice to get them to eat some other stuff lol.

i love your videos soo much i don't have a bird but i might get one soon...i had one question is lettuce good for birds ???

Hello!

Tips on to tame my 6 month old love birds plz! 🦜

my budgies are scared of vegetables hehe. one of them slowly approaching the mint and have a bite before it unfortunately fall off.

My bird only eats leafy greens because I have a bunny that gets leafy greens for breakfast and dinner and my bird likes to eat whatever he eats with him while he eat 🤣 My bunny doesn't mind sharing a couple bites lol She gets chop too but she's still so picky with what she will put from it.

I can only get my parakeet and budgie to eat lettuce and lemon balm. It is cute when they eat lemon balm, they treat it as if it's spicy, but they devour it all. 😂

Are birds allowed the leafy part of cauliflower or both white bit and leaf part?

Hey there just a question my bird is hand fed can birds that are hand fed eat vegetables ty ♥️♥️♥️

Do u cooked the peas and corn ?

I have a pineapple green cheek conure like yours, it’s just he hates veggies! Are there any veggie snacks that you will recommend?

I have brought 2 budgies , its their 2nd week and they are scared of me, please give me few tips for taming them. XD

My Lovebird Mango only likes eating veggies if I hand feed them to him! So most of the time I have to scoop chop into my hand and feed it to him until he doesn't want anymore TvT:

My birds pick out the seeds

5:47 my bird would just try to eat my food

My birds like the taste of the veggies but they don‘t like the wetness. Corn for example, they‘ll eat small amounts of it but keep shaking their head all the time because their beak gets wet. Any suggestions on what I could do? Maybe let the food dry a bit?

My idiot cousin got a budgie and bought this bird cage on wish the day before and thought it was big by looking at the picture for 10 dollars, it came and it was the size of a scrunchie, no jokes

My birds will only eat veggies holl which is very hard because my birds are tiny and smaller them my hand and they hate and I mean hate carrots still don't now way . and there fave veggies are well there not really veggies there fav food is hard boyled eggs they goo crazy over it

My birds imitate. One bird eats something and the other will follow up. However, my female budgie destroys a complete carrot in minutes as anything else of similar consistency. Next i will offer another, similar kind of vegetable. I avoid fruits because of the high sugar content.

Do I have to first cook the veggies?

my cockatiel is always interested when i am eating something from a pot, i think maybe she will start eating vegetables if i eat them from a pot when she is around
