I've had 2 particular parakeets for over 2 years. One of them is completely healthy, and slim.
The other is a bit overweight, and gets tired very easily. It's been an issue like this for years, but despite this he's never had any other issues in terms of health(from what i've seen). That said, i recently got a wakeup call and thus I want to help change their diet for the better.
I've mostly fed them an all seed diet(not paying attention to the brand) with the occasional lettuce ad millet spray, but I want to change that. Whether it's getting the best brand of seeds, or the best brands of pellets.
So I was wondering. What should I do? Change it to Pellets, or still get Bird seeds?
If so, what are the best brands available for each?
Should I put vitamin in their water? If so, what is the best brand available?
Any other vegetables besides lettuce I should give them? And how many times a week?
