Featured Replies

Posted

I am growing a number of fresh herbs in my gardens and most of which I use all the time but my basil just keeps growing i can not use it fast enough... :) ... I just wanted to know if it is safe for budgies to eat...? :) I know some herbs are okay in small amounts but have no idea about basil...

i give it but not really sure if it was safe nothings dead yet lol

i give almost anything we can eat exempt for

onion

avacarto however its spelt and chocolate no rubarb either

My budgie Ash will try and eat anything leafy and green that I bring into the house. I remember he got into some basil once and he spent the following 15 minutes frantically shaking his head trying to get rid of the "awful" taste :) . Needless to say he's never eaten basil again!

:) Opps... Yep thats the word I meant to say... Sorry GenericBlue... But hey, Great minds think alike but in our case great minds are mind readers... :huh: hee hee

My budgies love basil and have been eating it safely for a number of years now, another popular herb with them is parsley
