Johnson's | Honey Enriched Budgie & Parakeet Treat Bar | Fruity Stick - FAQs

Q1: What is the Johnson's Honey Enriched Budgie & Parakeet Treat Bar | Fruity Stick?
A1: It's a supplementary treat for budgies and parakeets, presented as a hard, edible stick. It's enriched with honey and packed with fruity ingredients, designed to provide both a tasty snack and a fun activity for your bird.

Q2: What are the main ingredients of this treat bar?
A2: The treat bar is primarily made from various seeds that budgies and parakeets enjoy, such as millet and canary seed. It's enriched with honey for sweetness and energy, and includes dried fruits for added flavour and nutrients, giving it its "fruity stick" designation. Specific ingredients will be listed on the packaging.

Q3: How should I give this treat to my bird?
A3: The treat bar typically comes with a clip or hanger built into the stick, allowing you to easily attach it to the bars of your bird's cage. This encourages natural pecking behaviour and provides mental stimulation as your bird works to get the treat.

Q4: What are the benefits of giving my budgie or parakeet this treat bar?
A4:

• Nutritional Supplement: Provides additional vitamins, minerals, and energy from seeds, honey, and fruit.
• Enrichment & Stimulation: Offers an engaging activity that prevents boredom and encourages natural foraging behaviour.
• Beak Health: The hard nature of the stick can help keep your bird's beak trim and healthy through pecking.
• Delicious Taste: The honey and fruit make it highly palatable for budgies and parakeets.

Q5: How often should I offer this treat bar to my bird?
A5: Treat bars are a supplementary food and should not replace your bird's main diet of high-quality seeds, pellets, fresh fruits, and vegetables. Offer them occasionally, perhaps once or twice a week, or as a special reward. Always ensure fresh water is available.

Q6: Is this treat suitable for other small birds?
A6: While specifically formulated for budgies and parakeets, many small hookbills and finches may also enjoy this treat. However, always check if the ingredients are suitable for your specific bird species.

Q7: How should I store the treat bar?
A7: Store the treat bar in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, to maintain its freshness and prevent spoilage. Keep it in its original packaging until ready for use.

Q8: Does it contain artificial colours or preservatives?
A8: Johnson's aims for natural ingredients. However, it's always best to check the specific packaging for a complete list of ingredients and additives.

Q9: My bird isn't eating the stick right away. Is this normal?
A9: Yes, some birds can be cautious with new items. Give your bird time to investigate the treat bar. They might peck at it gradually. Ensure it's hung in an easily accessible but non-obstructive spot in the cage.
