Hi,

 

I looked through the posted topics, and through the FAQS, and I didn't find anything on this ( I hope I didn't miss anything ).

I was wondering if, when budgies are breeding, do they get food cravings for some fruits and veggies or other foods ? The question suddenly popped into my head and now I really want to know.

 

Sorry if there is already a topic on this .... But thanks.

I don't know about cravings Charly, but of course breeding budgies have different nutritional needs than if they were just flying around in the aviary in the back yard.

 

I have observed this year in particular that my breeding pairs consumed more Murphy's Minerals which I provide in finger drawers for them especially the hens before laying and then again more as the chicks develop in the nest.

 

I am sure there are other examples too.
