Re: Bloodworms
If your birds will eat them they are great and easy. Some people have allergic reactions to them though.

Re: Bloodworms
I use freeze-dried bloodworms - expensive but worth it.
PS - I will move this to food/nutrition as it doesn't belong in the Housing forum.

Could you use the same kind you feed to fish, or do you have to get a different kind?L in Ontario wrote:I use freeze-dried bloodworms - expensive but worth it.

Re: Bloodworms
I use freeze dried bloodworm for my firefinches, cuz I refuse to deal with live worms in the house.
