Can Budgies Eat Eggs?

Yes, budgies can eat eggs, and they are a nutritious addition to their diet when offered in moderation.

Eggs are a great source of protein, vitamins (like B vitamins), and essential minerals (such as calcium and iron) that support budgies’ overall health. They can be especially beneficial during molting, breeding, or for young budgies, as they help with growth and feather development.

To feed eggs to your budgie, offer them hard-boiled or scrambled without any added salt, butter, or seasonings. You can mash the eggs into small pieces and even offer the eggshells, which provide extra calcium, but make sure the shells are cleaned and crushed finely.

Eggs should be an occasional treat, not a staple, and should be part of a well-rounded diet that includes seeds, grains, vegetables, and fruits.
