Aerogarden had their products marked at 50% off with free shipping for 24 hours so I snagged one. I'm excited to grow veggies and leafy greens for the birds! Does anyone have one, and if so, how do you like it? I'm wondering if I can feed sprouted seeds from this as well.

I have 2 sweet budgies, Nimbus and Banana. They are both boys Nimbus is 17 months and Banana is 11 years old though I've only had him for about 3 weeks. would write more but that's the max
I just got one about a month ago and its great! I'm growing herbs in mine and my birds go crazy for it especially the dill.though you can't make sprouts in it sadly. one of the seeds I got rotted but I replaced it with spinach and its going great! honestly its one of the best things i've got for my birds and I recommend it to all bird owners especially if you live in a cold climate with low sunlight. the berbs are such a nice addition and I might buy another so I can grow veggies.

I love mine too! The Budgies are particularly fond of the herbs so I cut off sprigs of it daily and offer it to them in addition to their chop. It's a hit! I definitely want to grow veggies as well, and will also look into getting one of the bigger models someday! Thanks so much for your feedback!!!

Love mine. Beware-the Thai basil is a bit like a weed! Can’t kill it and it tries to hog all the light. Think I’ll do the salad garden kit next. Thought about the chili kit but can’t get clear information about safety of the leaves if she eats them.
