FINCHforum

This is what I have so far:
From http://www.hermanbros-seed.com/. I found the recipe on http://www.kroshlfamily.net/Finches/Nutrition.htm#Seeds

1 part KG Special Finch Mix
1 part EM Special Finch Mix
3 parts Finch Mix Number 1
There's already millet in the seed mix so I'm not sure if I should give them anymore.

And Herb Health Salad and Miracle Meal Soft Food from http://www.ladygouldianfinch.com/index.mgi

Does it sound good? What am I missing and what do I have too much of? I'd really appreciate all the help I can get on this, so feel free to add or subtract anything. Also, how much would two zebra males eat in day?

Thanks.

I also use Herman Bros but tried a few mixes and found some of the seeds my finches weren't eating. If this is a case with your finches the owner of Herman Bros. can help make up a mix so you have little waste.

Aslo I take cuttle bone and a mineral block, grate it with a fine grater and mix it with crushed oyster shell and leave a cup of that in the cage for them to eat as needed. Before the female starts to lay eggs I notice she goes to it more often than usual.

I recently started using Zupreme fruit flavored finch pellets ground and added that instead of ground Roudybush pellets to their dried eggfood mix. I also leave a treat cup of the Zupreem pellets for them to eat as they wanted.
