In the wild, the budgerigar is a predominantly seed-eating species. The budgerigar is found throughout the drier parts of Australia & has survived for the last five million years in the harsh inland conditions of that continent. Although budgerigars are often called Parakeets, this term refers to any of a number of small parrots with long flat tails. Our budgerigar mixture is the same seed & mixture formulations that we have offered for over thirty years, providing a good quality bird feed at sensible price. Available in full sacks of 20kg & in our own economy polythene bag repacks for smaller pack sizes. Always fresh & clean & offering great value. Budgerigars are herbivores. Consequently, they should be fed plant based diets that are ideally supplemented with vegetable proteins such as nuts, beans, lentils & peas. Eggs (hard-boiled or scrambled) are the only appropriately healthy source of animal protein, particularly for birds in breeding, growing, moulting or recovering conditions. High levels of proteins (particularly animal proteins) are unhealthy for budgerigars & other Grass Parakeet species living as pets. Our seed mixes are well tried & tested over many years & offer the best diet for your pet whether in a cage or in aviaries. Ingredients
