I just found this 😃 organic dried apples 🍎🍏 it’s so hard to find organic apples here and they go bad quickly also very expensive not to mention I can’t even store them like freeze (didn’t know about drying) What do you think? an occasional sweet snack? I’ve been trying to give them more variety They definitely get bored with the same kind of food 😄 (they throw it into my face sometimes)  |

Dried apple is very popular with Chocobo here but I have yet to see the budgies get excited over it.
Nevertheless, it is worth a try as an occasional treat!

AS an occasional treat,it is ok. the key is "occassional" drying concentrates the sugars so be careful how often they hey get it;

They get a great range already; don’t take it personally if they fling their food around - that’s them being budgies. Stick to what is fresh at the time. An older apple is better than anything commercially dried as most times some form of chemical is used in the process so the product looks better. Sulphites are the most common and not good for humans in large amounts; I imagine it would be worse for the bids. |

Thanks Hezz for your advice 🙂👍 I will not give them any of the dried apples it’s not worth the risk (sounds scary) thanks again I appreciate it |
