Most of my local ones offer the service as long as they have space, so I'm sure that there will be somewhere close to you that does...

I'm not sure they would - when they dehusk the seeds, they tend to drop the husk right back in the bowl, covering the seed with a layer of husks and obscuring the 'edible' seed. Perhaps if it was a bowl with a large diameter it would be ok - it would then take a heck of a lot of dehusking to cover the larger area of seed.

But as said, not sure.

loads of boarding kennels and pet shops willl care for your budgies while you are away. It is not right to leave them unattended for a week. Your local rep shop should board your leos
