Roudybush Egg and Carrot Bread

Post by cindy » Wed Jun 29, 2016 7:34 am

6 eggs (no shell), 3 cups of Roudybush that has been soaked (add water to slightly above the pellets, let it absorb until the pellets are somewhat soft) and about 6 to 7 carrots peeled and finely chopped or grated.

Mix together and divide this mixture into two greased baking dishes (you do not want to bake a thick layer bread, it will take to long to dry out or bake. Cook in an oven at 375 for about 30 to 40 minutes or until the center is done (when tested the knife or toothpick should come out clean) if too moist adjust your time/temp, if you want it drier you can also turn off the oven and let the oven cool, leaving the pans in the oven for the bread to continue to dry out... cool to warm and serve.

to store cool completely before closing up in a Tupperware container or zip-lock baggie, this will prevent condensation from building up which can mold the bread. You can also freeze this.

My grasskeets and conure love this as do the finches.

It sounds easy enough. I will have to give this a try.

OK dumb question time.

How do you feed the bread to the finches?
I'm having a hard time figuring out how they will eat it.

Not saying they wouldn't try pecking at it but thought it ought to at least be crumbled to like an egg food :roll:

I mash it with a fork or break it apart so they can easily pick at it. I serve it warm, the grasskeets love it, nothing is left. Try the Harrison Bread mixes too....really good as well.

the inside of the pellet bread is soft like a cake even laying a piece on it's side so they can pick at the center works too
