Feeding Guidelines
Directions
- Feed as a moist crumble, or mixed with finely diced vegetables, soaked seed or other moist foods. Prepare food fresh each day to avoid microbial contamination.
To feed as moist crumble
- Mix 10g (1 scoop) of powder with approx. 3mL (½ tsp) of water
- Slowly add water to the powder while mixing with a fork to form a moist, crumbly mix.
To feed with soaked seed or vegetables:
- Mix 10g (1 scoop) of powder with 20g (2 scoops) diced veg or soaked seed
- Foods such as finely chopped greens, grated vegetables or sprouted seed can be used, depending on bird preference. Add a little extra water to moisten the mix if necessary.
Weaning
Budgie Starter is ideal for weaning young from Hand Rearing Food on to a solid diet. Offer as a moist crumble or veg mix once young are fully-feathered and starting to self-feed.
Conversion to Crumbles
Birds will readily transition from Budgie Starter to Passwell Crumbles by mixing the products together, then gradually increasing the proportion of crumbles.
