Video Transcript

"On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Lara and I'm here to talk to you about budgies. All budgies need a well rounded diet. This includes bird seed, pelleted food, and fresh fruits and vegetables. One thing you need to be aware of in purchasing a budgie is the fact that they can contract what is called giardia. Giardia is a parasitic disease that birds contract through drinking contaminated water or feces. Keeping the bird’s cage clean can help prevent this. Also making sure that they have fresh water daily can help deter this. If you feel your budgie may have giardia you need to take him to a vet immediately and have him treated."
