CANARY SOFT FOOD RECIPES

RECIPE #1

Whole Hard Boiled Egg. Boil for 21 minutes, then mash and mix 2/3 egg to 1/3 of the Petamine.

 

 

RECIPE #2

(more work, remarkably better results) 

Equal parts of : 

fresh ground whole wheat (hard red spring)

fresh ground soybeans, (I buy the seeds and mill my own)

shelled raw sunflower seed,

raw sesame seed

bee pollen

ground hemp seed meal

oatmeal

wheat germ,

poppy seed,

and vitamin/mineral supplements (check the recommended canary vitamin page).

This dry mix is stored covered in the fridge and can last for about a month. Mix 3-4 tablespoons of dry mix per each egg which is hard boiled 21 minutes and mashed. Add color food for the red-factor babies and molting red adults. Babies do VERY well on this and hold their weight during weaning excellently due to the high-fat content.
