Birds R US: Live Seed for Live Birds! TM
Birds R US Black Sprouting Mix is a blend of high germination rate oil seeds formulated to provide the essential lipids and fat soluble vitamin precursors which cannot be manufactured by the body.
Each seed has been selected for its unique nutritional properties and similar germination time to capture the full nutritional benefit when sprouted. Sprouting seed increases the nutritional value of seed by approximately 300% when fed just as the sprout appears (called a chit). The Black Sprouting Mix is suitable for all high metabolism birds from Finches to small seed eating Parrots, and is essential to Breeding Birds and their Nestlings.
After sprouting, combine 1 part Black Sprouting Mix to 2 parts White Sprouting Mix for a complete sprouted seed blend. Then mix with Mike Fidler's Complete Soft Food for the most scientifically advanced nutritional package possible for Finches, Budgies, Parakeets, Canaries, Softbills, and Small Parrots.
Directions
Sprouted seed should be fed daily during the Breeding & Moulting Seasons, and twice a week during the Maintenance & Resting Season. Do not feed sprouted seed during periods of Austerity.
Offer only enough sprouted seed that can be eaten within 24 hours. Remove or replace after 24 hours.
Get the DVD "At Home with Mike Fidler" to learn more about how to sprout seed and prepare the soft food fed to over 2000 captive finches at the Save the Gouldian Fund Research Centre in Cooranbong, NSW, Australia.
