Also because they will take some time to get used to it if they haven't had it before.

I use natural eggs and feed all year round.

We have to remember, what were trying to achieve, with advice i give i'm breeding to exhibit, so with the amount of feather i'm putting on my birds i need a lot of protein .

I have a pet bird called Doodle he is now 14 he has a very simple diet.
Home bred / res
This is him at 12.

Otherwise, it's throughout the year once or twice weekly.
