okay Um i dont think we have Bokchoy here in nsw. The budgies didnt touch any of their vegies at all

Hello Maesie, okay I'll see if Coles has Bok Choy. Good tip about putting veggies in the same coloured dish. I have the veggies in the Green dish cos the other dishes are see through plastic ones. Thanks for ur tip and advice!

I love the pictures all adorable birds! No 4 is my fave of the babies

adorable pictures!

That's great what you are doing. thanks they just run away from it in the corner perch ill keep on being patience.

Hello Cathrine, Thanks for your ideas ad tips they have helped muchly! Its been rianing lots laltey so i havnt been able to go outside to look for branches... Can budgies eat alfalfa? We dont have much bottle brush trees around here. I have put some lettace in cage and they are scared of it. I guess they've never have had lettace before. Poor budgies. Grevillea is great if there is no bottle brush or some leafy twigs from gum trees (always washed). Alfalfa is fine. I think the budgies would be more interested in sprouted mung beans than alfalfa because there is something to chew on. (My birds love them.) I suggest you sprout them yourself because you can do the exact quantity you need rather than waste a whole pack from the supermarket. You can buy raw mung beans at seed merchants and health food shops. Lettuce is not recommended. It can cause problems with excessive pooping and it has no nutritional value for the birds. Instead, I suggest you put in a leaf of silver beet or a leaf of bok choy or similar vegetable. Just poke the leaf through the cage bars. The birds will regard it as a toy to wreck but any they eat is beneficial. Always wash their vegies very carefully. Thanks Cathrine! What does Grevillea look like and Bok Choy? Never heard of them! I have bought some alfalfa sprouts ( i love eating them myself if the birds wont lol) I washed them and stuck some in the cage with a peg holding it. They arnt taking any intrest in it so far. I'll wait for a few hours or more. I also bought some cerly and carrots Washed them and shred the carrots and put them in a bowl on the floor of cage, both arnt taking interest in them. I guess they are wondering what they are lol. Okay I wonuse Lettacee thanks. Thanks for your help! Cheers!

Thank Jodie that did help. I'll uy some alfalf tomorro and see f that will help! Yes i heard about lettace not good for budgies but not entirerly sure. Cheers!
