April 30, 201113 yr Hey guys. Super information. Did not know this about the protein. May give this a go.... Moving away from the blood picks and and back to the PG13 Whey powder, does anyone have some dose rates or amounts they use for their birds and how they administer it ? I don't do soft food, but mixing with veggies ? Thanks, Stew
April 30, 201113 yr I hang suet [not sure of spelling] the fat from around the kidney of a sheep, in my avairy it has the added advantage of helping stop scally face, The birds love it! cheers Clearwing i was wondering clearwing do you give this suet to birds uncooked or cooked is it solid form or jelly like ? If you cooked it,It would just melt down into Fat. sorry macka didnt see you their okay so its a solid can you tell me how long its okay to be left hanging before it is termed no good as in off can birds get sick from it if left for over certain time frame i guess im asking
May 1, 201113 yr Geoff hangs his on the wire (indoor) aviary until it is all gone, so it must not go off.
May 1, 201113 yr Ive got a Question , How much available protien can a budgerigar absorb ? Are we wasteing money pumping birds with protien if they cannot absorb it all.

I was told overdosing with protein is extremely harmful. There are articles on it but I dont have them to hand. Worth investigating as protein levels would be hard to assess I would imagine. Most of us would be operating off trial and error I suspect and perhaps could be endangering the health of our birds if we dont have the correct knowledge at hand.
May 2, 201113 yr okay just need to let you all know was out looking at birds when a 3 month old hen started bopping around flight she was really chasing something so i looked close to see her chasing a small moth after around 5 mints she caught it and actually ate it so.... their you go natural protein and answer to a long questioned, question she didnt just crush it and drop it she ate it only leaving the wings
