Feeding Guidelines:
Feed as a moist crumble, or mixed with diced vegetables, soaked seed or other moist foods. Prepare food fresh each day to avoid microbial contamination. Can also be fed dry.
To feed as a moist crumble:
Mix 10g (1 scoop) of powder with approx. 3mL (½ tsp) of water
Slowly add water to the powder while mixing with a fork to form a moist, crumbly mix.
To feed with soaked seed or vegetables:
Mix 10g (1 scoop) of powder with 20g (2 scoops) diced veg or soaked seed
Other foods such as finely chopped greens, fruit, mashed hard-boiled egg or sprouted seed can be used, depending on bird preference. Add a little extra water to moisten the mix if necessary.

Weaning:
Egg & Biscuit is ideal for weaning young from Hand Rearing Food on to a solid diet. Offer as a moist crumble or veg mix once young are fully-feathered and starting to self-feed.
Conversion to Pellets or Crumbles:
Birds will readily convert from Egg & Biscuit to Crumbles/Parrot Pellets by mixing the products together, then gradually increasing the proportion of crumbles/pellets.
