Is there any special diet I need to feed my Zebras while they're breeding?

Seed, pellets, veggies and boiled finely grated egg and calcium in the way of powdered or finely ground egg shell, cuttlebone, whole or shaved.

This is an excellent guideline http://www.finchinfo.com/diet/safe_toxi ... _foods.php

Thanks! That's pretty much what I already feed them, just wanted to make sure it was good.

Nothing else is required. Provide fruit treat if possible.

My zebs go crazy for soaked/chitted seed. Especially when they are feeding.
