Not sure about the almonds, but birds love sunflower seeds. Not too much though, because they're high in fat.

a million. specific,parakeets like strawberries, yet no longer all of them like strawberrries, sometimes they are going to shake their heads, because of fact it has some little bits persist with their beaks. 2. specific, seeds are greater desirable 3. no, because of fact the leafy components has plant hairs on it, and your parakeet won't like that 4. i would not advise cheese, because of fact cheese are severe in energy and fat for parakeets, and might reason a coronary heart attack, and it won't breath if eating too lots, because of fact the fat are stuch interior the veins. 5.specific, yet get rid of the outer pores and skin. 6. no to nuts because of fact some nuts are poison, and it is likewise very fat, and not healthy for parakeets., and cooked pumpkin, without salt or suger extra, sunflower seeds without salt is okay.

Keets can have almonds. I string some on cotton (make sure you use a cotton or hemp type thread) thread and hang them in the cage, they pick at them. Mine also LOVES Cheerios... if you give it these you can also string them and hang in the cage... only regular Cheerios not the "honey nut" or flavored ones (too much sugar). When the treat is gone cut the string out of the cage so they don't get tangled in it but they might chew on the string too that why you want a "natural" string.

Some of them might eat some of it. It is safe, but feed them only as a treat, not as a staple ingredient in their diet. Grains are low in vitamin A and very high in fat. Will make your bird sick if he eats only seeds, get a good quality pellet food.

My parrot doesn't seem to care for almonds, but it is fine to feed them to your parakeet. Limit the amount though. Go to the site below for nutrition info on almonds. I've listed the sunflower seed nutrition info for you. The info below is for humans. But these are very nutritious, full of calories though, so limit your parakeet's consumption. Make sure you feed your parakeet a diet varied with kale, broccoli, sweet potatoes, (cooked of course). Stick to organic produce.

My parakeet loves all types of nuts, he'll just scratch or bite off small pieces. It all depends on your bird's individual taste!
