What type of fruits can budgies eat? I feed Star apples and lettuce but I want to give her more to eat. Also, she is very skinny but she eats alot. Is this a problem?

I've heard that its safe to feed them: kiwi, pears, bananas, apples, pineapples, grapes, oranges, peaches, tangerines, melons, strawberries, figs, cherries, raspberries, apricots, and blackberries.
As long as they're washed good, but I know you already know that! :D
And about Star being skinny.... I think its normal. Norri seems sorta-skinny, and I know he eats plenty. I'm not certain about your budgie, though!
Hope I was helpful in some way. :)

Any fruit/veggie besides avacado is good! As for being skinny, I'd be worried if your budgie WASN'T skinny. Birds have an extremely high metabolism so they eat frequently. However, in order to stay in flight, they need to be light. That's why your budgie is so skinny. :) It sounds like your budgie is perfectly normal!
