Treats for budgies!?

Plastic is an okay option for dry food, like their pellets or some seed mix.
But any kind of moisture on plastic can breed bacteria quickly so for fresh veggies and water Stainless Steel is recommended.

My two guys won't eat either the nutriberries or the honey seed stick you see around. Millet seed is their treat of choice.
Spray millet is Preeno's favourite. Other stuff he takes to are sesame and sunflower seeds.
He's not so interested in my homemade nutriberries but would sometimes peck at it. You should explore and see what your bird would like
A good way is to offer them all and see which they go for first.

Basically one of those diy nutriberry recipes Im pretty sure you can just google it. If you need more help finding the recipe though please reply and ill explain deeper into it.
Stainless steel are the best. They don’t get the scratches plastic gets over time.
nutriberries come in budgie size but I found them to be too large. I crushed them.

Recipe for my "Bird Spheres" in case anyone wants to know. BTW when i say spoon i mean tablespoons unless i say teaspoon
2-3 spoons of bird seed
1 spoon of flour
.5 teaspoon of honey
1.5 teaspoons of water
Mix it all together then kind of roll it into shapes if its still really sticky/wet add more seeds. Put it on a microwaveable tray/ plate. A lot of people say you should bake them but it takes way too long so i just microwave them for 30 seconds flip it upside down, and then another 30 seconds (obviously this depends on the size though so change it around to fit your needs). When they're done they should be firm. let them cool for 30-60 mins and then you can give it to your birds.
