The formula and method for making your own parrot feed. Method 1: It is provided for reference by bird friends who are not afraid of trouble and are willing to do it themselves. The nutritional value is not inferior to bird milk powder.

Millet + egg yolk + (vitamins + nourishing pills + eggshell + red soil)

You can freely choose to add any of the items in the brackets, but it is recommended to add at least one. In addition, you can choose one of eggshell and red soil to add. Preparation tools and preparation methods Feeder 1. Millet: You can choose Hemeijian N10 in the picture or Hemeijian chick feed on the far right of the picture, or other brands of millet.

2. Egg: Boil an egg in water for about 20 to 30 minutes, until the yolk can be crushed and turned into powder. Just take the yolk part. (Pay attention to the amount of water when boiling eggs to avoid burning them and bursting them)

3. Vitamins: You can add them as needed. If you are feeding sick birds, please follow the doctor’s instructions. Healthy young birds can be added occasionally to avoid reducing the bird's own resistance. Just choose one of the nourishing pills and add it.

4. Nourishing pills: can be added as needed. Both sick birds and healthy young birds can eat it regularly. It is strongly recommended to add it here. It can increase the nutrition in fruits that the birds do not usually consume, and can also replace vitamins. This is a good nutritional supplement without using bird milk powder.

5. Eggshells: For sick birds and healthy young birds, calcium is very important, so it is strongly recommended to add eggshells or cuttlefish bones. Cuttlefish bones are not easy to handle, so I won’t explain them in detail here. Eggshells are enough. After peeling off the eggshell, you need to tear off the inner membrane before using it to avoid sticking to the throat of the young bird.

6. Red soil: Its function is the same as that of eggshells, but because there is still a lot of controversy about whether red soil will cause a burden on the bird's body, it is not strongly recommended to add it here. Just choose one to add.

7. Grinding cup: It was originally used to grind medicine. It is used here to grind nourishing pills and eggshells, and mix eggs or red soil. You can also find a grinder that suits your needs. This small ceramic grinding cup can be purchased at the drugstore and should not be too expensive. 1. Grind eggshells or red clay into powder first, then add nourishing pills, mix and grind into powder. The nourishing pills will expand when soaked in water, making them difficult for young birds to swallow if they are too big, so it is strongly recommended to grind them into powder or fine particles.

2. Add egg yolk and millet. The ratio of egg yolk to millet is approximately one egg yolk plus two egg yolks of millet, which can be increased or decreased according to your needs. Mix the egg yolk, millet, freshly ground eggshells, and nourishing pills until there is a pile of powdery mixture on the millet particles.

3. You can make a few days' worth at a time, put it in a crisper, and then put it in the refrigerator. When you need it, scoop it out and heat the water directly. Never use a microwave to heat it. If the egg yolks are still wet when mixed, that’s okay! It is better to put it in a crisper and then put it in the refrigerator. The coldness of the refrigerator can absorb the moisture.

4. Soak the rice in hot water until soft before feeding. The amount of water added is about the same as cooking rice, just enough to cover the surface of the millet. The amount of water that can be sucked up by the bird feeder shall prevail. But the water should not be too little to avoid indigestion in young birds. Suitable feeders: bird feeders, spoons (detailed feeder selection and feeding methods are explained below) Method 2: It is more suitable for bird lovers who are too lazy to make their own feed and are willing to be a little extravagant to provide the best nutrition for their young birds. . This is also the best nutritional supplement for sick young birds, and it is easy to digest, which is equivalent to supportive therapy! If you have a sick bird in your hands, this feed preparation method is highly recommended!

A21 + Kaytee + nourishing pills (you can choose to add nourishing pills) Preparation tools and preparation methods Feeder 1. A21: The can of bird milk powder on the far right in the picture is very nutritious. The only drawback is that it is too oily and completely Eating only A21 can easily cause candida or cropitis, so it is recommended to add Kaytee and mix it.

2. Kaytee: The large can of bird milk powder on the far left in the picture is as nutritious as A21, and it has added cereals, which makes it feel more natural. The only disadvantage is that young birds will easily get hungry if they only eat Kaytee. , it is digested quickly, so it is recommended to mix it with A21.

3. Nourishing Pills: You can choose to add them freely. In fact, if you already have the previous A21 mixed with Kaytee, there is no need to add nourishing pills, but I still propose this option here for your reference. Added, not strongly recommended.

4. Supplement: If you choose to add nourishing pills, it is recommended that you use the grinding cup in method 1 to grind the nourishing pills into powder and then mix them with milk powder to prevent the particles from being too big and getting stuck on the baby bird. Beak or throat. You can add additional millet and feed it with a spoon. The baby birds will be weaned easily and have enough nutrition.

1. The blending ratio of A21 and Kaytee is → A21 : Kaytee = 1 : 5. It can also be 1:3 or 1:2. I mix it at 1:3 because young birds are more likely to be hungry at 1:5.

2. Mix with warm water to the consistency of rice milk. However, the concentration changes based on the age of the young bird. The younger the bird, the more dilute the concentration. As the age increases, the concentration increases.

Because the digestive capacity of young baby birds has not yet fully developed, the concentration should be thin to avoid causing crop inflammation. The older the bird, the better its digestive capacity will be, so the concentration must be increased, otherwise the baby bird will become hungry quickly. . Suitable feeders: spoon, dropper, straw, syringe.
