Frequently Asked Questions
Why are small seeds important for breeding budgies?
During the breeding season, parent budgies regurgitate softened seed to feed their nestlings. Small seeds are easier for parent birds to soften and regurgitate, and easier for nestlings to swallow — making them particularly important in a breeding mix.
How does this differ from the standard Prestige Budgies mix?
The Breeding mix has a higher canary seed content (48% vs 38%) for elevated protein during breeding, and features small seeds specifically chosen to promote nestling feeding. The standard Prestige Budgies mix is formulated for year-round maintenance feeding.
