Re: Feeding Live Foods
I just tried canned meal worms and canned cricket..they loved the meal worms but the crickets even though they were small they refused. I usually put it in a shallow dish on the bottom of the cage. The owls go for live or canned.
The dried crickets I may chop up and add to veggies or how about an egg bug veggie quiche for birds?
