Sprouted Seed

Featured Replies

I have been using sprouted seed for the last few weeks and my birds, particularly those with eggs or babies go nuts for it. I have given a dish to my baby birds today (Five weeks old) and they seem to really like it too. At the moment, I am probably giving it 2 or 3 times a week. Is this okay?

Definitely :P I try to give my birds natural greens along with their vegies and soaked seed and soft food every day.

So it wouldnt hurt to give it more often? I was told that because of the high protein content, it should only be given 2 or 3 times a week?

Hasnt hurt my budgies and they get it every day as well as egg which also is protein.

okay...thanks for that :P

Ask any show breeder...protein is good for "feather". Most successful show breeders do NOT change the routine as far as food served daily at all. Same thing every day. BUT good things every day :P

I have just got a hold of whole egg powder to go in the birds daily soft food for PROTEIN.
