different bird food

can parakeets eat conures food?

Hi,

Conures are actually a large parakeet. Your parakeet is probably a budgerigar parakeet and while they can eat the same foods, a conure food may be too large, if it is pellets, or have some large pieces the budgie won’t eat, if this is some type of mix. But it won’t hurt the budgie if the bird will eat it.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,
