Lovely video because it highlights the importance of green vegetables.... what people often don't realise is that seeds are high in omega 6 and omega 9 which causes inflammation. Seeds are a convenience to ensure your budgie doesn't go hungry if you have a busy lifestyle. 1 tsp/ Budgie/ day. Green leaves are critical for flying creatures ( including insects) because the water in the cells is structured... exclusion zone water.. it's more hydrating than simple water and the bird has less weight to carry. A budgie will only eat about the volume of its beak for each kind of food. With green vegetables try and provide two kinds of grass ( this is their main food by volume), a root vegetables green ( such as carrot tops, beet greens, parsley), a mustard family leaf or flower, a cruciferous vegetable ( rocket, cabbage) a lettuce family ( lettuce, dandelion), clover, amaranth leaves... Variety is crucial to avoid intoxication. Only rain forest parrots such as rosellas and cockatoos require a little fruit. Don't convince your budgie to eat fruit.. it's like convincing a child to drink soda. Birds that don't scratch the soil ( like chickens do) should not eat root vegetables such as carrot root or cooked potato because they are too high in starch and glucose). When cleaning your cage, grow the fallen seeds in soil and harvest the greens when they are sufficiently tall enough to cut with scissors. If you place food on the floor of the cage, it has to be in an area totally clean from droppings to avoid bacterial infections. Feed boiled egg once or twice a week as a bug substitute. They will only eat the amount of a pea in volume. Never let your budgie eat something contaminated with human saliva. They have a weaker and different immune from humans system. Never leave bath dishes in the cage for more than 15 minutes to avoid the budgie drinking poop contaminated water.
Whoa
Ohk!💜 Thanks for the advice
@@bam3227 lol That's why the video exists.
@@bam3227 Saying the obvious. Some like to read, even if it isn't to your liking. I deal with too many sick pets fed inappropriate diets with pet owners that don't even realise their own health issues but all well intentioned and momentarily suffering. That's why I comment in detail. Look after yourself and your pets to the best of your ability.
@@annburge291 Love your comment and details you provided for the birds. I will follow it for sure together with the Denny's advices. Thanks again for your concern and precious time to spend on collecting and writing it for bird lovers and owners❤😊👍
My budgies don't eat fruit and when is saw this I quickly pressed on it
Same, mine hate everything
Same. Mine hate when I try to work with them too. My older one shows no fear, he'll even fall asleep when I'm standing right there. If I try to work with him he bites and climbs around to avoid me
Same I am really trying to get my bird to switch
Its okay some budgies don't like fruit. Veggies are more important in their diet and healthier
Mine bird *HATES* foods ;-;
For 2 months I kept putting veggies in my budgies other bowl and he didn't eat it. But now he loves veggies and his beak is always dirty😂
Same!
So cute❤️❤️
How? H out w u mom
Same here, two whole months, and when I was about to give up...now I just enter room with greens in my hand-they attack my hand😂
So guys it is possible just be patient!!!
My budgies are young and have many "first time" experiences, at first they didnt want to eat anything but seed, but now that i have learned these tricks, they are more excited to get their veggies and fruits (:
THE MISTAKES I MADE IS - *I DIDN'T CUT THE FRUIT THIN, DIDNT CAMOUFLAGE THE FRUIT*
The mistake with Budgies is offering them fruit... they are dryland birds and their main diet is grasses by volume. Grow your seeds and produce the right kind of greens.
@@annburge291 You do get that not everyone can grow seeds right? Also, there is something called "evolution' which also means "adaptation". The budgies adapted to other diets as well. If they didn't, they would most likely die cause they didn't get fed well.
@@ivagrujic248 My son had a pet Budgie that lived 22 years in Mexico.. most pet budgies have problems reaching three years old because of their inappropriate diets and physical and environmental dangers. I only comment so your Budgie can live a long and healthy life and so you will spend less on vet consultations. You decide what is appropriate. Sometimes diets have to be modified because of food availablity and economic constraints.
@@annburge291 Wow, Its informative :)
Hope ur budgie lives a long life
Currently I dont have any budgies
But I almost know half of budgie journal *now*
But when i was having budgie, I don't even know 1 page of budgie journal =P
So....U taught me something i dont know, ☆*THANK YOU FOR THAT*☆
same i gave my budgies fruit but didnt eat it so i cut the fruit VERY THIN AND CAMOUFLGE THE FRUIT
My birds literally started eating veggies by the seed dipping tip
You have good knowledge about them
Can we take a moment to appreciate the thumbnail ?
But that thumbnail though 😂
Monch
I need to tell my mom to give our two budgies more veggies and fruit. She's normally the one who feeds our birds, since I'm very clumsy with knives. I don't want them to leave us too soon, since I already grew attached to them so much.
I learnt one from a channel ..to introduce new food, remove the seeds at night before the birds go to sleep and give the new food at Early morning as they eat most of their food at morning and remove after 6 hours and repeat for 10 days
I'll go give my buddies some fruits now
Edit: I meant to type budgies but I guess buddies works too
yuehp
But fr I read budgies only
Omg thank you so much for the fruits and veggies trick!! I always try to feed my budgie some apple or sometimes strawberry but she doesn’t eat them :”) she only likes lettuce and cucumber, she also likes carrot but loves lettuce the most xD ive been trying to give her more to try but its getting hard haha, thanks again for these tips hopefully i can trick her with it so she can eat more vegetables and fruits :”D
Same With My Budgies.
Thx! My budgies finally eat fruit and vegetables!
yay!!
I found this video very helpful ❤️ thank you very much . And a happy news for everyone is that my budgies layed an egg today 🎉🎊. Thanks for everyone who guided me . ❤️❤️❤️
Wow congrats
Congrats! ! !
I have eight budgies and six of them came from the same pet store. Three of them are my niece's. The people who worked there really fed them the right way not just seeds and I am glad I don't have that problem. It was because of those six that my two oldest ones finally started eating fruits and veggies. It really does work when you have a flock and that they learn from each other. They are quite a bunch of fun buns. 😂
You have got to be the most loving bird owner In the world
I somehow got my older budgies to eat their chop 😂. I tried so hard and then one day they just ate it! And they LOVE their chop. Also I really recommend the flock way. I got a new cockatiel a few weeks ago and she now eats the chop ok. Also my male cockatiel taught one of my budgies who didn’t like toys to chew and play!
Everyone's reaction to thumbnail:- budgie eating veggies
My reaction :- budgie kissing a veggie 😂😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing, my budgies don't like to eat veggies it's gonna help a lot! Also u r my favorite UA-camr!!
Dipping the fruit in seed, that is so smart!! Thanks so much for sharing I'm going to try! Your birds are very lucky to have you 💖
*Why are budgies so cute!?*
Because that’s how god made them
@@user-jo5bj5lt4u "God
Cuties! God bless em all ways😍😍💗💗
I love the sound of the zebra finches in the background in the beginning 😂😂
Thank you for making this 😊 I’m new to bird care and your channel is a lifesaver (literally) Please continue to make videos like this to help bird owners!
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for this video! I’ve been stressing over my budgie (mango) because he refuses to eat anything other then seeds iceberg lettuce and carrots (he only eats carrots on rare occasions) I’m super excited to try these! :D have an amazing day!
Love the video. It gives so much info that I never knew. I love how you break it down as well.
Wow a really really helpful video for all the bird owners🌟🌟Thank you so much for this beautiful and helpful video✨❤
Thank you for this video I find it very helpful and I'm glad you mentionned what you were offering your birds. Keep up the great work !
3:13 boiled egg..."this tastes like myself!" LOL
Hello this video is to much true and lovely . This is doing to much good work for all birds to keep healthy . I am supporting your channel Denny the budgie
Love your birds, tips and video for the guidance. Stay blessed👍❤
Perfect Video, i ♥️ it.
I like to watch your Videos, cause sometimes it's something
new, i did not know.
Kisses from my budgies 😘😘😘
Charly and Giggi.
thank you for creating great contents on birds. its really helpful.
My bird wouldn't eat veggies at all until I ground up some broccoli and put it on a compact mirror that lies flat. I put the mirror on the bottom of the cage with the broccoli and birdie came down to check herself out. She started eating the broccoli and now the mirror is what I use to feed her her veggies with. Birdie didn't like apples much, but really loves her broccoli and raw curly kale. Cauliflower was met with a lukewarm response and carrots were a no go. I may try giving her a thin slice of carrot and see how she likes that. The ideas you presented here were really good and I will try using some of them to give my bird a wider variety of veggies and fruit.
Great video! Thanks for sharing🥰
I love your videos. They are all educational. Thank you. You a beautiful healthy looking birds.
My budgies ( kiwi, champ ) they do
not sit on my hand but I am happy they eat all veges , egg, fruits etc☺️
These tips really helped my feed my scared budgies food. Thanks man! You deserve a like!
Cute birds ❤️😍 Thank you for the helpful tips ❤️
I love this! Super helpful!
OMG ITS WORKING!!! Thank you so much, the first time i removed the food and only put vegetables dipped in seeds they starting trying out the veggies!! Thank you so much i was so worried that they would only eat seeds!
This is a fantastic video!! SO many people feed only seeds, especially to their small birds. We need to get the word out that seeds only are NOT good at all!! I’ve got 14 rescued parrots (4 are budgies) & my recently rescued Quaker ONLY ate sunflower seeds for 17yrs! She’s so weak that she can’t fly, & her feathers are almost oily as a result of the seeds...
Anyway? I just can’t tell you how much I LOVE seeing such happy healthy birds🥰❤️🦜Thank you!!
I also have a cockatiel that I rescued one year ago, he was kept in a cage small even for budgie. He was fed only with millet and sunflower seeds. Ringo also lived in the cafe bar and because of stress he started plucking feathers. When I adopted him, he was totally naked. Now he's fine and he started eating greens and vegetables. You saw him in the video probably 😀
Denny I love your videos 😆
The music is always so adorable, as is the whole content of the channel💭💕💭💕
Thank you so much for your videos I have learned so much from them and my birds are all blessed because of them.
Awesome info denny the budgie
Thank you so much...for this video😃😃💙
Your videos are so helpful for my cockatiel and budgies
Nice n good ideas to feed the birds
Thnk a lot got to learn many things
First time I got her to eat an apple was by taking your advice. Sliced thin, dipped in seeds! Also did the chopped up mash with seeds and added fresh broccoli, which I know she likes. It worked! Thank you!
Thank you for the tips
Thanks...it was a great help...I am new to a pair of budgies..getting to know them. This video is excellent 🙏
TYSM for telling me this and uploading a video on this rlly ty
Thank you very much for this video this will help me a lot ☺️
thank you for this helpful advice! it really did work!
I'm glad to hear that!
*I wet a bunch of fresh organic kale and put in it their cage and once one parakeet started to eat it, they all began to eat it. They love carrots, apples, romaine lettuce, kale, spinach, and strawberries. I will continue to introduce more as time passes. They also love pellets. I got them to eat it by mixing it with their seeds, which I try to limit.*
Great suggestions, thank you! Cute flock you have! 🦜
Love this! Thank you!
Omg thank you!!! When I was much younger I didjg realize this. Well now I have birdies again and they won't eat anything. But now I see these tips so helpful.
Your canaries Sound like the Noot noot penguin. So cute!
great video and thanks for the tips!
Such beautiful birds, they're happy
Love your cage setup
Great video, new follower thank.. oh I’m new to budgies, love them, a little clan of 5.. ✌🏻
I got mine to eat a bit of fruit, which was shown , I was eating an apple they wanted some too , :) but now they like spinach /carrot /romaine lettuce , they love a bit of cooked sweet potatoes too with seed sprouts , grated carrots , they prefer veg to fruit but I cant complain there happy
Very lovely video as you have a young child showing how it's done,as well as the importance of feeding and careing for are pets. Especially in bird keeping from a young age. How to live and care for there pets is so very important,Thank you
Everytime I eat an apple I cut a slice off for our 2 budgies and hand feed it to them as I eat my part. It's a special moment when you can tell then understand what you're trying to tell them and they proceed to devour the whole thing in seconds. Lol
Thank you so much! This really helps me how to make my birds eat veggies and fruits! This video is very helpful! I liked to save later and watch ! Thanks for your help!
Thanks a lot for that video! It is really helpfull! 🥰
Great video, great montage. Great advice: easy on the fruits, heavy on the veggies. I feed my budgies 1 teaspoon of seeds per day, and my canaries, one half teaspoon.
Thanks for the tips, it worked and I was amazed
Thank you for this info
Thank you so much! My cockateel can now eat cucumbers and apples! It really helped me! ♥
Very helpful, thank you! I will try everything you suggest. I didn't know you could give them eggs! Great video, thank you 👍👍
