Question
hi!
im just wondering, how do u make baby parakeet food formula?

Answer
Hello Katelyn, Thanks for posting!

There is no real baby budgie food formula. The mother will regurgitate food for the babies, but sometimes she won't feed them all. In this case, you'll have to hand feed them. However, if you wish, you can put some soaked oats in one of the food containers, making sure you also have seeds. But make sure the oats done mold, in that case, remove them before any of the birds get to it.

I can answer many many questions on nesting, eggs, etcetera. Behavior, illnesses, diet, training and taming. There are some things I can't answer on illnesses but I do believe I can help with most of them. My strongest areas would be nesting, eggs and mating.

Experience

I breed budgies. Only budgies. And I have exprienced all of the things I wrote when you asked me what kinds of questions can you and can't you answer.

Education/Credentials
I studied bugdies for quiet a while before recieving my first. I know what to do in an emergancy and also basic information people may need to take care of their bird(s).

Past/Present Clients
Whenever one of my good friends has a question about budgies, I'm the one they ask. I don't think of them as clients, I just would say I help them in times of emergancies or general knowledge around the subject
