I bought a 27-day-old budgerigar. How can I feed it with my hands? Do you need to feed it with water?

The budgerigar about 27 days old is still a chick. The parrot of this age needs to be fed with milk powder and usually needs to be fed with water. Raising budgerigar chicks by hand is not a simple matter, and there are many places to pay attention to. Let's be specific.

The breeding environment of budgerigar is very important, so we should pay attention to this aspect. The birdcage of budgerigar is bigger to give the parrot room to move. Try to keep the birdcage in a warm and dry place and keep a good room temperature. Don't be too noisy in the living environment. Budgerigars like to be quiet when they rest.

It is also necessary to choose milk powder suitable for budgerigar feeding. You can choose special milk powder such as Yin Ge milk powder, and don't feed milk powder to mammals, which may cause adverse reactions. When brewing parrot milk powder, the ratio of water to milk powder is 2.5: 1, so add water first and then milk powder. When feeding the parrot, the temperature should be controlled at 35~40℃, otherwise it may cause indigestion if the temperature is too low, and it will burn the crop of the parrot if the temperature is too high.

When feeding the parrot, you can choose to use the spoon special for the parrot to help feed, so as to avoid the milk powder from flowing around your mouth. When feeding, first gently fix the parrot's head, then slowly approach the parrot's mouth with a spoon to induce the parrot to take the initiative to eat until seven or eight points are full, and feed the parrot three or four times a day.
