Our parakeet loves grated raw carrots, green leaf lettuce(not head lettuce), cooked corn with no salt/butter, unsalted crackers, cooked brown rice with no seasoning, steel cut oats, grated apple...
The medication used for treating parasites in a budgie will depend on what kind of parasite the bird has. It's not a good idea for pet owners to try to diagnose and treat the bird themselves. You should always consult an avian veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment. The veterinarian will prescribe appropriate medicine and show you how to give it to your budgie.
Budgies are simple to take care of but read these hints and instructions very carefully: 1. Give your budgie a safe and large enough cage. 2. Give your budgie plenty of fun toys. Replace the toys regularly so your budgie doesn't get bored. Leave your budgie's favorite toy inside. 3. Give your budgie check-ups at the vet at least once a month. 4. Feel your budgie's breastbone (or wishbone) everyday to make sure your budgie isn't fat. You cannot feel the breastbone if your budgie is fat. 5. Give your budgie high-quality food. 6. Replace your budgie's water EVERYDAY! 7. Clean your budgie's cage every week. 8. Have your budgie stay outside the cage WITH YOUR SUPERVISION! 9. Feel your budgie's food (or look) for seeds that have not been eaten or it will starve. 10. Enjoy the budgie!
Please answer! I might get a budgie and I want to know how much food I should feed it.
I have a pet budgie and mine wont eat anything but seeds but i have had budgies in the past and they will eat very small nuts. they are small birds so dont give your bird a bigger nut that a macaw would eat.
Perhaps a budgie of the opposite sex, a good diet, plenty of water, and a cage that is large enough for freedom of movement.
The Trill brand budgie food is recommended on many comparison websites and by many vets. They advise that you treat your bird to some fruit now and again and mix a vitamin supplement in the water. However it is hard to tell if they are the best budgie food but all the information points towards it being a very good choice of budgie food.
Millet is very high fat and to be used as a treat only. Most likely if you only feed spray millet your budgie will develop tumors in 2-3 years.
The girl budgie would attack the new boy budgie and not the old girl budgie because she is used to the other girl budgie and is not familiar to the new boy budgie.
Can budgies have seizures? Yes, budgies can have seizures. If they stay down at the bottom of the cage with their food and water you know that your budgie is about to have a seizure. It is a unusual behaviour for a pet budgie to stay down at the bottom of the cage. If it happens quickly give your pet budgie a cold bath!!! PS: hope your budgie lives a happy life!
Yes, that's what budgies eat, seeds.
well when you would buy your pet budgie you would ask the pet shop keeper he/she should tell u all the details of ur budgie and should give u like a little receipt with all the info on your pet! x
I got my parakeet, or budgie, to really love carrots without much of a trouble by peeling it into peices with a peeler and feeding them to her. Be sure to not give her the rough outside of the carrot, but the inside.
