Default Midnight snacks

Hey guys I've been noticing lately that Miss Gracie has been eating her pellets very late at night. My bedroom is not far from her cage so that's how I can hear her. Is it normal for them to get up in the middle of the night and eat? Should I be worried she's not eating enough in the day?

I don't know, but Honey is sometimes a midnight muncher. She is the only one out of all the birds.

My guys munch at night sometimes. I never really thought anything of it. I figure they eat when they are hungry lol.

I can count on one hand the number of times I've heard Ollie munching at night, but I'm like Kris- I figure when she's hungry she eats, I don't worry about it.

Samantha(B&G) has always been a midnight snacker. Mischief (Scarlet) has recently started playing in the middle of the night.You can hear him banging toys around in the dark about every night.It doesn't seem to disturb the rest of the flock though.

If the birds are alone most of the day they will sometimes nap. Night comes and oh no! I'm wide awake with nothing to do so...eat, play and make a little noise.
