I have a tiny parrotlet so when i make chop i freeze it into an icecube tray then one cube is a meal.
I'm off to the kitchen now, you've inspired me!🎉
When i freeze my chop I always grind up some brown flax seed. It takes up any moisture and gives it a nutty flavor along with some great omegas. I havenever had a problem with it being mushy. I like how you chop it in different sizes. I'm just afraid my 2 parrotlets won't eat everything that way. But I'm sure my others would like it that way.
Ugh I realized watching this that I am not using nearly enough variety. Back to the grocery store I go! 😂
Love this! Especially the apology piece of sweet potato! 😊
I just love this chop dobu think I can try it for parakeets
How many times should we feed budgies?
Thank you for sharing this, it's always really interesting! I tried chops for my quakers and they never accepted it sadly. Our routine is to cut vegetables together on the morning. They wait really impatiently on my shoulders while I prep. When I spread the fresh sprouts on top of it, they can't wait any more. I usually cut them 3 veggies and sometimes add a bit of fruit or nuts. I think that what makes them really happy like that is the fact that it's their only meal they fully eat with us. The pellets and other treats are always hidden in their room.
That is the same food processor i use! 😂❤
I also don’t like to freeze my chop. Fresh is the way to go. 👍🏼
Thank you for an awesome video!
Beautiful chop. Do you also feed Tops pellets?
I've tried every imaginable way to fix sweet potatoes for my picky birds EXCEPT your way. Looks great😅. I usually fix food daily because they are social eaters. Beets will be new for them. They love lima beens. Thank you for the tip on bee pollen. So much information, so grateful.😊
As always, thank you for your info
Aside from the fridge the location matters as well! Depending on your location your produce may be coming from further away/ already been picked for longer/ gone through more processing. All of that can impact how long product lasts. Where I live currently a huge portion of our produce comes from local farms that are literally just outside the city (about an hour drive) to supply the stores. The food is then fresher when it gets to us and lasts longer! Other than that my fridge is nuts, where I used to live produce all died within a week
How often do we need to feed parrotlets? How many times a day?
They have a fast metabolism so it is generally recommended to leave food out all day for them (removing veggies after an hour due to bacteria) but you can also do two meals/ day depending on the bird
when should I introduce veggies to a baby green cheek conure he's 6 weeks old now
As soon as a bird can eat solid food they should be introd to vegetables
@@FlockTalk thanks
have the two boys had a chance to meet each other yet? or is Toto still in quarantine?
You cook the sweet potato? I always feed it raw. I know cooking does make some vitamins more available if cooked. Still we are on the raw whole foods diet because that seems more natural
Honestly I just cook them because back when I first started offering sweet potato it was common knowledge that they were toxic if fed raw. But newer info has them being safe raw! They do offer more nutrients when cooked and many picky birds find cooked sweet potato more palatable though. I may end up trying raw in my next batch! We’ll see!
@@FlockTalk I did try it cooked few times a long while ago. Mine didn’t like the mushy texture. Well, they are not much into veggies over all, so I leave their breakfast out for quite a long time (08:30-13:30 or something like that, after that they shouted enough for seed.) With cooked that would not be possible because that spoils really fast. Budgies are so stubborn when it comes to food so deploying every trick on them constantly over the last 2 years
