Parakeet blend or classic


I bought the classic parrot food type but read it was more for african gray sized birds can i still give these to my parakeets?


Answer:

Hi,

Yes, you can offer them to your parakeets. There may be some items that are too large, however. If the store will take them back, you might want to return them. But otherwise, they are fine to offer – if they are slow to taste them, then break them up some.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,

Brenda
