Storage containers are a must if you need to do a lot of fresh foods. If you get the right containers your food will last refrigerated for 1 week. I use plastic containers with breathable holes in the lids & removable grates in the bottom. These sort of containers allow for the juices & liquids to settle to the bottom without letting the food touch it so it doesn't ferment in the juices & go off quickly.
But regardless of how much longer than a week your fresh food is keeping, you should not keep it longer than a week as bacteria does grow quickly of fresh sprouts & fresh cut fruit & veg.
Smaller grates in the bottom will cater for sprouted foods while the larger ones are suitable for fruit & veg mixes.
For their cooked food you can cook everything in bulk, mash together & then place into small freezer bags in meal size portions. This way you don't have to cook often & you only take out of the freezer what is needed for that day.

It does not have to become a headache to cook & prepare bird food every day. If you use the correct storage containers you can do it in bulk & cut down your kitchen time a great deal.
