The short answer

Yes — bell peppers are a colourful, vitamin-C-rich favourite, and the seeds are fine too.

Why

Bell peppers (capsicum) of any colour are excellent for budgies. Unlike fruit pits, pepper seeds are completely harmless, and many budgies love pecking them out.

How to feed it

Wash it and offer a strip or chunk, raw, seeds and all. Any colour works.

How much & how often

Daily is fine.
