RECOMMENDED USES

  • Provides a healthy alternative for bird owners who choose to prepare their own bird food or those who give regular treats to their birds
  • Can be offered instead of table food to birds that like to eat at family mealtimes
  • Can be used to assist in converting birds to a formulated diet
  • Can be hidden as a foraging reward
  • Can be used as a vehicle for administering liquid medications, or encouraging the bird to eat fruit or vegetables as the fruit/vegetables can be baked into the bread
  • Provides an easy-to-use transition for hospitalized or boarding birds until acceptance of the appropriate formulated diet
  • Can be moistened and offered to birds that are feeding chicks as a soft food
  • Can be used as a weaning food to transition to a formulated diet.

BAKING DIRECTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
  • Combine entire bag of mix with 2 whole organic eggs - no shell (remove yolk for less fat), 1 Tablespoon (15 ml) high quality organic vegetable oil or Palmgloss, and 1 cup (235 ml) water.
  • Fill greased bread pan or muffin tins and bake for 25-35 minutes.
  • Do not bake in nonstick (PTFE-coated) cookware, as the fumes are toxic to birds.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

  • May make up to 30% of the daily diet.
  • If prepared with the addition of fruits, vegetables or nuts, Bird Bread should be considered a “treat” and fed only in limited quantities (no more than 10% of the daily food allotment when combined with all other treats).
  • Can be served warm.
  • Some flavorings (vanilla, maple) or herbs can be added as long as they do not change the nutritional content.
