[budgielove111]

i feed my budgies lafebers parakeet pellets and just found some beige colored insects in the bin. i don’t have another bin and the one i ordered won’t be here until tomorrow. does anyone know if i should feed them the infested pellets or if it would be ok to have them on some other food for a day?

Well they need to eat something, if you have some seed or other pellets to feed them instead. If your'e having a problem with bugs in your pellets storing them in the freezer will kill any insects or larvae. You could also feed them veggies if they'll eat them.

feeding them some seeds or grains with veggies for a day will be perfectly fine.

The bugs are harmless!

You can just freeze them. It'll kill the bugs. It's a good source of proteins.
