| Question about Pets:My parakeets wont eat fresh fruits and veggies.? |
Maybe its the location of where you are putting the fruits and veggies. Mine will not eat them if they are placed in their food bowl or in the mirror/bowl type thing that is on the cage. They only eat it if I stick it through the bars. Mine also wont eat red apples has to be granny smith or Fiji apples. They wont eat banana's but they will eat cantaloupe. As for veggies the only things they will eat are carrots.
captive birds' diets should be supplemented with foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables, sprouted seeds, pasta, whole grain bread and other healthy human foods, as well as pellets formulated for small parrots. Adding these foods provides additional nutrients and can prevent obesity and lipomas, as can substituting millet, which is relatively low in fat, for seeds mixes. The only foods that you should avoid are Chocolate and avocado are recognized as potential toxins. Give foods without salt this includes saltless/butterless popcorn.Peanut butter has alot of fat so should not be given often or in large amounts try to get the low salt peanutbutter if you can
