Dianna,

My birds have the dried Herb Salad available too. However, I hardly ever see them eat any of that. I have it in a dish (actually a little toy wagon ) on the floor and the only birds who sometimes poke around a little in it are the button quail.

What dish do you use for it and do your finches really eat the herbs?

It is in a 5 inch (~12.5 cm) diameter, 1 inch (2.5 cm) tall round dish. Out of cubans, owls, goulds, and RCCBs, the cubans and owls actually spend time eating in it and particularly when fresh is added.

I have tried growing herbs for my birds, but decided it was more trouble than it was worth.

I keep herb salad available at all times. I keep it in a rather wide dish so they can forge around and get what they need. My birds don't gorge on it, but they love to peck around in it.
