How much food do parakeets need?

Parakeets do not need very much food. Small birds usually eat 1/2 teaspoon to a teaspoon of pellets or seed mix per day, while larger ones may eat closer to a tablespoon of bird food a day. Consult the parakeet food package for suggested feeding amounts and guidelines. You should feed your budgie some fruits and vegetables every day, too, making sure to carefully wash and cut them into small pieces first.

Do parakeets eat fruits and vegetables?

Parakeets do eat fruits and vegetables, and regularly supplying them with fresh veggies and fruit is often recommended by experts. Budgies enjoy veggies like leafy greens, broccoli, cucumber, carrots, and many others, and they also love nearly all types of fruit—especially the tropical varieties. Just be sure not to feed your bird anything that may be toxic—avocados, mushrooms, onions, and garlic are a definite no-no, and citrus fruits may upset your budgie’s stomach.

How often do you feed a parakeet?

Feed your parakeet daily and be sure to provide a ready supply of fresh water, too. In addition to feeding a daily staple diet of complete and balanced pellet parakeet food, you should also provide your budgie with fresh vegetables or fruit several times a week.
