Highlighted Reviews

— Dixie

"My Parakeet Jack, loves these. Just clip onto the bars and it lasts him about a week."

— Brenda

"The treats became so dry that they fell apart when put up. Had to throw 3 of the 4 away because my birds would not eat them that dry. The wild birds outside loved them."

Bottom Line

However, be prepared for the possibility that your parakeet may not take a liking to them, and be mindful of the potential issues with the hanger design.
