Hey all, I have come up with a treat mixture for my budgies, that I put in a seperate cup than their normal diet. I only put this in occassionally. It is egg food mix, a conditioning seed blend, and some "dri greens". I was just wondering if there was anything else I can add to this mixture I have. My budgies jump on it everytime I put it in the cage. I think all of your budgies would like it too.

Sounds good, maybe some oats and groats? Half of my guys love them madly, the others don't so you never know.

okay thanks that sounds like a good idea. Yeah most of the time my budgies are picky, but other times they are not.

Grated carrot?

Sounds yummy. A nice alternative to traditional egg in egg and biscuit is to cook a scrambled egg for your bird in the microwave... This is what I do:

 

- beat up the egg in a small bow

- put in for 30 seconds

- break up with a fork

- then another 20 seconds or so

- break up with a fork

- then maybe another 10 just so it's not runny

 

My bird Turb loves it. Doesn't eat it all day (cause it's wet, take it out in a couple of hours), but enjoys it more than most things. She also loves it served warm - turns her nose up if it's cold. Just like we would I guess...

 

You can also rub real scrambled egg into a pellet mix or any other mix such as rice crumbs (like bread crumbs - but yeast free). Can get the latter from health food stores. They love it!
