Hi, I have a pair of budgies for breeding. They are not eating fruits and boiled eggs, even when I offer them. Their only diet is foxtail millets and spinach, so I searched in web to see how to get them to eat veggies but unfortunately all the steps are for tamed budgies as mine are not tamed. Please help me ,they have to get nutrients to stay healthy and lay eggs.
 
Skip the fruit for now, most budgies wont eat it. only one of mine will eat some apple but that's it
Go for a variety of vegetables, I like to aim for a mix of colours and textures so peas, corn, chilli, capsicum, broccoli, carrot, cauliflower etc, something to get their attention . lots of dark leafy greens as well. All my smaller birds get a "chop" that I put into a little food processor, that chop goes onto a shallow dish..
photo included is some carrot and broccoli I chopped extra small for some new budgies, it shows how small I made it. I put that into a dish and sprinkled some millet on top so when they went for their seed they would end up also getting some of the veggies. it takes time but don't give up..
