Question
Hi Christopher,

Thanks a lot for your expert advise. Its greatly appreciated.

Someone told me that budgies like sprouted seeds a lot. I provide them a mix of pearl millet, yellow millet and sunflower seeds so what is the correct methods of making these seeds sprout?

Thanks..

Answer
Hi again,

You will have to look up a recipe for that on google. As I understand it there are several different ways to do it, although I have no expierence. I feed my birds a pellet diet and supplement with millet during breeding season. I have 100+ budgies in my aviary that thrive and breed well with that diet and see no need in changing.

Best of luck
