Nutritional advice
• Give fresh birdseed daily. • Give unlimited grit and sharp stomach gravel; sprinkle this on the floor of the aviary or put it in a separate bowl. • Make sure there’s cuttlefish for the extra minerals (among which calcium). That is good for the eggs. Furthermore, the birds can sharpen their beaks on the cuttlefish. • During the breeding and moulting seasons give extra fats and proteins with egg food. • Supplement now and then with fruits, willow twigs, leaf buds, or vegetables (no avocado). • Always make sure there´s enough fresh drinking water.
