Mamma Bird…
On returning home to St. Croix, from a Puerto Rico vacation, we found one of the Lovebirds dead and the other on the verge of dying. Before this tragedy, the pair were taking turns feeding six little fledglings that hatched three week before we left for Puerto Rico. The three little ones that survived were in really bad shape. We removed the three from the nest (there was a birdhouse in the cage) and we began to hand feed them a baby bird food formula (hmmm). I should say, Mary really was the one that hand fed them; I only found the food… it just happen spot the last can of baby bird food at one of the animal feed shop on the island. Mary was amazing; she fed these birds before she would go to work and when she returned home, everyday and all day on weekends. This went on for about two weeks. Just as I was getting a little impatient with all of this, the surviving bird, I call Mama Bird, decided she/he was ready to take over again. This short film captures that moment when the parent bird took back the job of feeding its young. It was very interesting seeing Mary feed the birds, but when the Mama Bird jump back into the picture it became more interesting seeing the two, Mary and the Mamma Bird feeding the together. I have read and heard stories about birds abandoning the nest when they smell humans on the chicks. Well, this film is the myth buster for sure. Enjoy… Stan

Canary Seed : Pet Bird Food & Bird Supplies & Canary Diet
Hi {!firstname_fix}, its Arlo from CanaryStore.com Today i’d like to share some essential facts and helpful tips on your canaries diet… ================================================================== Major Mistake #2: Dining on a Deadly Diet ================================================================= While it’s common (though not necessarily recommended) to see dog and cat owners sharing household table-scraps with their pets, using the same carefree approach with your new pet canary is almost surely destined to end in death. If you’ve ever actually held a canary in your hands, you’ve felt how rapidly their hearts beat aE” it’s almost like a little motor in there, just humming and vibrating away. This rapid heart beat means that your canary is burning HUGE amounts of calories, nutrients and minerals to maintain their vitality. If even just one essential nutrient is missing in their diet, it can easily deplete them to the point of death. But feeding your canary aEoeenoughaE? ISN’T enough… You can’t just weigh out two tablespoons of just anything and expect your canary to sing and thrive at their optimal levels. You’ve got to take things one step further and ensure that you’re feeding them enough of the RIGHT FOODS.. Otherwise, you’re likely to suddenly find yourself bird-less. ================================================================== Here’s What To Do… ================================================================== Here are just 3 of many canary killing foods that I uncover in my ALL NEW guide ‘Canary Keeping for Beginners’ that should be avoided at ALL costs Canary Killers 1: Iceberg Lettuce 2: Plain Potatoes 3: Avocado Here are just 5 Canary Approved Menu Items that they LOVE… 1: Spinach 2: Broccoli 3: Watercress 4: Corn 5: Raw Carrots (grated), Cooked Carrots (smashed) For a list of over 21 essential foods to avoid feeding your canary and the real foods they actually enjoy and LOVE YOU FOR, check out my new guide ‘Canary Keeping for Beginners’ You’ll need to be sure that your canary is provided with plenty of fresh water, daily. You’ll also want to supplement your canary’s diet with sources of important minerals like calcium, grit and cuttlebone aE” especially when it’s time for breeding, when cuttlebone should be DOUBLED… When you supplement your canary with calcium, remember that they’ll need Vitamin D in order to properly aEoeprocessaE? the calcium. Canaries absorb Vitamin D through their skin and eyes by regular (but not necessarily prolonged) exposure to direct sunlight. In summary remember that your canaries health is mainly down to their diet, and if properly maintained your canaries can live a MUCH happier and vibrant life under your care once they have a balanced diet…
