Diet Conversion Trick: SMALL Birds (SO CUTE!) (Patreon)

We have an entire section on diet conversion in our new budgie course SPECIFIC to budgies because they are often a lot more difficult to convert than medium to large parrots (at least in our experience!) Also, Blueberry came to us on a seed mix which he was weaned onto... it can be much harder to convert birds who were weaned only onto seed as well. 

This is one of the tricks I used! 

If your bird came to you on the crappy pet store seed, simply find an organic seed or make your own and make your first conversion that. This trick was done using an organic seed mix. If your bird refuses the organic seed mix, you can do this with the original one you were given just to get him interested. This is a sweet potato/yam ball. 

Once your bird is eating this, you can then incorporate the feeding system into this as well (still with the seeds) and less and less seeds each time! YUM!
