"My parakeets enjoyed these treats. My conure liked them, and I even shared some in the outdoor feeder for the wild birds absolutely loved them! A nice, colorful snack option that works well for smaller birds."
"Live bugs, possibly weevils, crawling around the sealed bag. Good thing there was a window to look through and I noticed them all. That's the last thing I need to deal with! I contacted Chewy and they were fabulous but I wanted to warn everyone in case you purchase these before they are pulled."
