 Basic Bird Food Mixture

Basic mixture:

In food processor put 2 eggs (Shells and all), 1 tsp baking powder, 1 can Green Beans (Any kind will do), 1 Cuttlebone, 1 Tablespoon Necton Vitamins, 3 or 4  Large carrots and ¼ cup vegetable oil and grind all together.  If it is too soupy add a little uncooked oats.

Dump into bowl. To this mixture add 3 cups cockatiel seed.  Mix together and spread on greased cookie sheet, Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 30 minutes.

Cornbread:

Any Cornbread recipe will do

Mix equal parts

1. Basic mixture which has been crumpled up

2. Cornbread which has been crumbled up

3. Cooked rice you can use small noodles and even potato ( They love sweet potato)

4. Cooked beans (I usually use 1 package lentils and one package of small white beans

    but you can use anything…barley, pinto beans, kidney beans, split peas)

5. Sunflower seed

6. and cockatiel seed…or pellets…or zupreem…or your favorite food brand.

This can then be frozen for later use.  It must be stored in the refrigerator as it can spoil.

I often add chopped fresh fruits and/or veggies to this right before I serve it to them. I mix everything together and then watch them forage out their favorites.

The advantages of getting your bird used to this diet is they will eat anything you put in front of them…The disadvantage is that it does spoil.
