I'm so proud on my Tweetie Pie! It took him awhile to eat the sprouts but yesterday he ate them off and on during the day. When I took the food dish out, there were few sprouts left - looked like mostly the unsprouted seeds. Good job boys! Mommy likes growing foods for you.

I tried their seed mix sprouts today. Added a few non sprouted seeds and coriander to lure them. They dived right in - okay, not every bits and pieces.. But i guess the seed mix sprout looks almost the same?! Getting them used to other seed sprouts had been much more difficult. did see them chewing some seeds with tail and few sprouts. I guess it's good news that they tasted some of it. I can keep going!

Great job mona! I've been giving my guys the sprout that I've grown every day now. They both are eating them. In the last couple of days, they've been "sharing" - one will grab a sprout to chew on and the other will come over and eat the tail hanging out the other's beak. Its so cute and they're not fighting.

Today, I've added wheat sprouts in their sprout mix. Let's see how they react!

Hopefully they like it! I've tried wheat sprouts at various stages of maturity and it seems my guys like them best before the tails start showing green. They still eat it but not as much of it.
My friends are all commenting about my new hobby - budgie care and taming!

They didn't touch wheat sprout today..just ate the moong sprouts! Maybe if I repeat it daily, some day they might!
Oh, I'm super obsessed about budgies. I haven't been doing anything else. Today, I decided to read a novel or draw. But I spent my whole day laughing with/at them! Only Lord can save me now 😀
I was going to throw away the leftover from the bird diet today, with sprouts and a few seeds.. But, I decided to add it to the coco peat container, so that it grows into grass. I have been wasting the leftover since long.. how dumb am I?! My mom did that with the leftover seeds and beautiful long grass grew out of it! I recalled that today. I keep throwing the sprout water and later recall that I can use it for watering the grass or plants.. During childhood, we used the pulses, rice, veggie water to water the plants too, for the same reason. Nothing beats what you can learn from your mom!! 🥰
