Can you train a bird with treats?

You can train a bird with treats, and training your bird can be both entertaining and rewarding for you both. Many birds take well to training, including popular pets like canaries, lovebirds, parakeets, cockatoos and parrots. Chewy carries a great range of bird treats for birds of all types, so you can find just the right training rewards for your feathered friend!

How often should I give my bird treats?

You should give your bird treats daily, but make sure they are healthy treats like natural seed or fruits and veggies. You can also give your bird packaged bird treats for training or as a special reward, just be sure they don't make up more than 10% of your bird's daily diet.

How do I feed treats to my bird?

Feed treats to your bird as a special reward to promote bonding or to reinforce good behavior. You can give your bird treats during training or make treat time a special thing you do together every day. Feed your bird treats by hand to encourage interaction or put the treat down in front of him and watch him eat it. Most experts recommend against just putting bird treats in the cage at mealtime, as many birds will fill up on treats first and neglect their complete and balanced food.

What are the best treats for birds?

The best treats for birds are healthy natural treats like seed mixes and fresh fruits and vegetables. Look for packaged treats made for the type of bird you have. Chewy makes it easy to search for treats by bird type and you can search by type of treat, as well. Good treats for most birds include millet sprays, dried fruits and seed mixes. Try to avoid giving your bird treats with lots of added sugars, fat and artificial ingredients, or give them only sparingly as a special treat.
