Question Dry veggies for lovies

Where can I find dry veggies? The supermarket doesn't carry them...
I feed my lovebirds fresh fruits/veggies every day, but have a hard time finding dry vegetable mix for them.
Thanks

Your best bet is to get a dehydrator and dry your own foods... since dried fruits and veggies may contain preservatives and other things that may not go over too well with a birds body...

Beak Appetite makes several mixes and can be found in pet stores or on line.

The Squawk Store has a variety of dried veggie items that are safe for birds: The Squawk Store

Better pet stores/bird stores often sell Beak Appetit or similar products. You can also check to see if there are health food stores, Whole Foods or Trader Joe's markets in your area. Sometimes they sell products like Just Veggies, which are dehydrated veggie bits.

Best of luck!
