Soft Starter Sprout Blend (for young or first-time sprout eaters)

Description: A mild, soft-textured mix that’s easy to digest — great for chicks learning to eat or adult budgies new to sprouts.

Prep: 5 mins | Sprouting Time: 1–2 days | Servings: 2–3 budgies

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp soft wheat berries (hulled)

• 1 tbsp soaked oats (whole, raw)

• 1 tsp chia seeds (gel-soaked only — not sprouted)

Instructions:

1. Soak wheat and oats for 8–10 hours, then sprout for 1–2 days.

2. Soak chia seeds separately in water until they form a gel.

3. Mix sprouts with a tiny amount of chia gel and serve fresh.

4. Store leftovers for up to 12 hours refrigerated.

Notes:

• Chia gel gives texture and hydration.

• Great introduction to soft sprouted food.

• Offer small portions until your budgie adjusts
