I give my birds hard boiled eggs every day. I mash my eggs with, egg shell that has dried out for a few days in a paper towel, so that they crush to a powder when I roll them over with a rolling pin. The shells are in a plastic bag when I crush them down. Or you can hit them with a hammer until they're in powder form. {great for taking out your frustrations too!!} :D

Than I add Zupreem fruit flavor diet {also crushed} to the mix so I know they're getting the extra minerals and vitamins that the just seed diet doesn't contain. I'll also add crushed sunflower seeds or wheatgerm if I'm in the mood. These I crush with a piston and mortar I bought at the flee market for a whole $2.00. The birds seem to really love the added fruit flavoring the Zupreem adds.
