Acadiana Aviaries Seed Mixtures & Egg Food

Over the years many have asked about our bird seed mixtures and what we feed at the farm. The diets and mixtures below are what I believe to be among the best choices I could offer the birds that I keep. In the past I have not sold such mixes but I get enough request from bird keeps to buy small quantities that I have decided to offer them on line for those who would like to try them. For the most part you can buy these ingredients and mix them yourself. I realize that not all of the seeds or brands are available throughout the country so thats why I offer them in small quantities. Shipping is so expensive and I do not have easy access to UPS or FED-EX so my only shipping method is that of the postal service.

 

 


 

Protein 25 Nesting Food

I have used many varieties of commercial egg food over the years and am currently useing Protein 25, VERY sweet smelling, all birds just love it. It comes dry and can be feed as is or moistened. I give it right out of the package to my goulds and societies with no other additions. For my birds in large flights I often mix addtional freshly boiled eggs with it. Its easy to use, last for ever if kept sealed and all finches absolutely love it. The aroma will make you salivate it smells so good.

Acadiana Aviaries Finch Seed

 

I buy and mix my own seed for all of the finches at the farm, plus it is coated with the conditioning oil mixture* that is specially formulated to increase the nutritional value of all seeds and keep the birds in top condition. The oil coating absolutely eliminates egg binding. My birds never experience this any longer.

The seed mixture contains: white millet, small yellow millet, small German Gold Millet,. Japanese millets, Canary Seed, and a small quantity of hulled oats.

(there are no black seeds of any type in this mixture)

In short there are no seeds that my birds will not eat, they eat it all!

Acadiana Aviaries Dove & Pigeon Mix

Here again we feed a special mixture of seeds and pellets to all of our doves and pigeons. It's a mixture that I have arrived at over many years of keeping these birds. Its not a complicated mix and you could buy the ingredients yourself if you wanted to mix your own. The Dove mix contains Milo, Lone Star brand tiny steel cut cracked corn, white millet, Oil type sunflower seed, fortified Safflower seed from a cockatiel mix along with small amounts of hemp and buckwheat, and parrot Pellets, PLUS my favorite! Purina Nutra Gold Pigeon Pellets and the usual conditioning oil mixture*.

 

Together this seed mixture will keep any dove in tip top condition all year long. From Ringneck doves to Bleeding Heart doves and Victoria Crowned Pigeons, my birds thrive on this diet.
