okay I thought I would ask what sort of extra stufff can you give your budgies when they are feeding young ones? I have heard of egg food but not at all sure how you make it.

 

My two seem to be begging me for somethign extra I give them as much corrot as I think is safe for them becuase they love that o bits, it adds up to at the most half a carrot for one day. Plus i give them a spay of millet each day which they eat as well, they are not growing fat at all so I believe it is helping with the feeding.

 

I'm just windering what other things I can try even if I don't think they will eat it.

You should give them greens like romane lettuce and broccoli, and spinach. You could also try egg biscuit. You buy it at petstores and it's like a dry bread that has good protein in it.

hard boiled egg mashed with grated carrot i also give a shop bought egg food you could try bread and milk with a couple of digestive biscuits crumbled and mixed in

I can't fuind any store that has egg food around that was why I was asking.

 

I will try the egg mashed with the carrot, they love that already so they may eat it with the egg.

Mine ate their regular diet that they always did, just more of the vegetables, especially the greens.
