Food & NutritionCan finches and budgies safely eat green chiretta leaves and fruit?
Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I do not recommend feeding such plants to finches or budgies as they may be toxic. Finches and budgies can eat a commercially available seed or pelleted diet (found in most pet stores or on the internet). They can have occasional treats of fruits and vegetables, but I would avoid any medicine plants or herbs. I hope this helps and am happy to answer any other questions you may have!
