Emily's Yummy Recyclable Bird Seed Treat

by Emily
(Oklahoma)

Utensils:
~knife or scissors

~between 1/2 a toilet paper roll to 1 whole paper towel roll (depending on how many keets you own)

~peanut butter (or any other kind of healthier nut-butters)

~old seed (do not use seed that has been on the ground, it can be soiled and can harm the birds health)

~string or yarn (for later when you're hanging it up in the cage)

~budgies favorite treats (i add bits of the broccoli buds, some mint, and little chunks of orange and apple. they love it!)

Steps:

1. get a toilet paper roll or a paper towel roll

2. cut the roll to a good size for your keets (you can even cut out designs like hearts or circles)

3. take the tip of the knife or scissors and poke a whole on both sides of the treat (younger kids, let a parent help you)

4. get some peanut butter and spread some equally over your design

5. roll in old seed and favorite treats and place in freezer for about 15-20 minutes

6. take out, string, and tie this yummy treat to the inside of your birds cage and watch them eat it up!

extra tips: you can add their favorite treats to this like brocolli, berries, and fruit. remove after a few hours. serve this treat as a once a month thing because peanut butter is fatty and can harm your bird if fed too much. i hope you guys liked making this and that your birds enjoyed it! :)

Honey bar treats!

by Scarlet
(England)

My little one absolutely adored these. I chop them into small squares to be given as treats, as these are not the best for your budgie or bird!

Ingredients:

Honey
Peanut butter (optional)
Bird seed
Porridge oats
Dried fruit (etc. Raisins)

Simply mix your ingredients together, add the solids and seeds then followed by the semi liquids ie but butters and honey.

DO NOT GIVE YOUR BIRD THESE EVERYDAY THAT MUST BE KEPT AS TREATS ONLY!

You can change up the recipe and add what your birdie likes :)
Hope you like my recipe!
