your the best!!! love these videos!!!!! currently have parrots but now need a canary room.... hahahahah. we have had a farm for years, good call on not putting the apple core and seeds in the mix. seeds can be toxic to our little FIDS. thanks so much!!!!! keep giving us these amazing videos!!
It's a very nice recipe.I would recommend to anyone who feeds it for the forst time to feed only a small amount if the birds are used to other egg food mixtures (mine rejected it until I offered it 4 times.I have over 60.)Btw,it's a great smoothie recipe for us (without the egg food in it of course :p.)So thanks for that :D
Hi Matt Greetings from down under beautiful Brisbane Australia. Allow me to congratulate you on a most informative and riveting series of shows. With our breeding season still around 5 months away, there is some points I would appreciate your advice on. 1. Exactly how do you prepare your hens for the next round, changing nest, removing nest, withhold nest etc??? 2. I noticed in your last episode you said you had removed the perches from your chicks rearing cage, what will happen if I leave perches in their rearing cage and how long do you withdraw the perches for, also do you feed and water them on the floor and if so how do you get them used to feeding from a different utensil on a perch??? 4. I am told young cock birds learn to sing from their fathers, however if I remove them to a rearing cage and they are not with the parents what happens. I only have 3 pair in 70cm x 45cm x 45cm flight cages so do not have the ability to seperate or remove a cock bird and if he is with the hen he will not sing. Sorry this is such a long-winded comment. Keep up the good work, cheers
I am a new fancier of lovebirds in Pakistan and this will be my first season as such... Our breeding season going to start in October or November... Your above video is for Canary birds. So i have two questions: 1) Above soft food is suitable for lovebirds as well or not? 2) Do you have any videos on lovebirds as well?
Hi, great video Matt - I have a canary hen who has laid about 4 or 5 eggs but am worried she looks a bit tired - is this recipe ok for very short term use for laying hens (in the first week of laying) to use the antibiotic properties of the garlic to eliminate any bugs?
i use sprouted seeds to soften up my orlux bianco, that's all i feed during breeding season, as well as seeds and a bit of greens of course...as i said keep it simple!
I am a new bird breeder. A week back purchased dilute love birds pair and opline love bird pair. I have a deli nature mixture in hand. I need guidance.. 1) Is this mixture is good for love birds in breeding season? 2) Should i give this mixture daily to love birds or once or twice a week? 3) Should i add Nekton E & S, calcium in this mixture if yes daily or once a week? 4) As breeding season is start in October what extra things should i add in it or is this enough?
Thanks Marie, I mean i don't add garlic during the breeding season. only because i feed the egg food from the first day of hatching and i'm always a bit concerned about the young getting too much
@@TheCanaryRoom thanks I mixed egg food in and freezed hope its ok. Next batch will only freeze the veg/fruit mix and then add egg food when defrosted and ready to feed birds.
Hmmm, my canaries have virtually zero interest in Kale. Don’t blame them🤮 But my canaries and Oz finches absolutely love Pak Choy for greens. Not sure about its availability in the UK?
sir i have white yarkshire female canary...the problem i face is that this is her 1st year to breed... she layed 4 eggs but unfortunately all 4 eggs were layed shell-less.... what to do for she is ready to start her 2nd clutch
it's called eggfood, basically egg battered with flour then baked into a cake and crumbled. guy in the video said he used 3 different brand mixtures: king's, cédé (i have this kind), and delinature
Hi mate, im from indonesia. . i start breed yorkshire canary in this month. . i have question, how many times do i need to give egg food in one week ? Thankyou!
it depends on what time of the year, for example during breeding season you need to give eggfood every day, same thing as they going trough the moult as the extra nutrients will help the birds grow new feathers
I am going to make an egg food tutorial in my channel but i will just explain how to smash a hard boiled egg with the shell and give it to zebra finches well does YOUR mix good for zEBRA FINCHES?
I was getting some birds they did not eat orange fruit or egg food But by keeping offering it, then they tasted it, and then no way they be without now
Hi can I feed this to my birds as I breed mules and I didn’t want to just do it in case there’s to much fat or anything and I’m using Perle morbid and cede dry egg food mix any advice please?
A bit late..Portion it up.and keep it in the deep freezer.I prepare all my egg food mixtures in large amounts as I have usually between 60-200 birds per season.I portion it and when I need it I take it out.(If you get the mixture right and it's not to moist or too dry you can scrape off what you need and leave it a few minutes in room.temperature while you have put the rest back into deep freezer.ait only takes me a few minutes to fill the bowls and it's always cool in the kitchen so.the mixture which goes back into the deep freezer never defrosts.
My canary layed 3 eggs a few weeks ago, today a few hours ago the first egg hatched, but the mom hasen't started to feed the baby yet. Can someone please help me, I'm kinda new to this. Plss give all tips u have.
Hi Safa, i've only just seen this comment, sorry. In the first few hours the young will survive of the nutrients from the egg sack, the important thing at this stage is they're kept warm. Some hens are great feeders others are not, but don't over fuss on the young as this can cause the hen to abandon them.
If I keep the amount as shown in the video, then the amount of dry eggfood does not match what you see in the video! I made it last night, and everything by half, and I already had a big bowl full !!! On the video you can see whole apple, whole carrot etc etc. Then it really becomes a very wet gang
What about if my canary has a hatchling is it safe to give them garlic then? My society finch died today and I don't know what the cause of death was , he was missing some feathers around his neck area for some time I am not sure if he had diarrhea not sure if I gave him garlic would it help him . The strangest thing is that he didn't show any major signs of being sick he was just a little puffed up and when I got near the cage he would just fly to another branch inside the cage , did you have anything similar happen to you maybe?
budgies actually hide their sickness VERY well for future reference 😊. A too puffed up budgie or puffed up for too long are actually signs of an unwell budgie. So by the time you can visibly tell the bird is sick, the sickness is quite far along and hard to treat without a vet
I have been breeding birds for over 30 years and would not give garlic to hatchlings.(I had some dead baby burds when Instarted because I have used heavy to digest ingredients in the egg food mixture such as nuts for example.) I give them my standard dey egg food mixture with peas and/or sweet corn and heavier to digest mixtures once they are 14 days old.It's possible that garlic is okay,but I wouldn't risk it.) In regards to digestive problem I been giving my birds organic cammomille tea for year.I add 2-3 tbs in a large drinker for each cage.Stinging nettle tea is also good if you get a new bird and don't know if it was exposed to chemcals.It helps to detoxify.
Sir i would never feed y birds garlic no matter what ! alot of people tried putting garlic to their birds and most of them died ! so please don't just give an advice like that it may kill alot of birds !
yes ! and onions !! don't try putting that in ur birds food NEVER ! not all birds can digest it also .. search online u'll see .. i know some people did that and they really regret it so please please be careful.
Hi, I'm sorry to hear of your experience, i can only assume that the supply you used was contaminated in some way. Garlic given in small amounts certainly won't kill birds
