A Great Food for your Grey!

[zandische]

Hi Guys,

 

I just discovered this not-so-new food for Athena and she loves it. It's called Gerber "Barley" cereal for babies, likely to be found in the baby food section of your grocery. All you have to do is mix it up in water and it makes a nice mushy cereal. Since Athena loves her breakfast mushy, it mixes up quite nicely with her muesli and pellet mash that I make her.

 

The nutrition on this stuff is very good. There is no sodium and very low sugar, plus extras like added calcium (15% of the dv in 1/4 cup - of course, I only feed Athena a couple teaspoons a day) Vitamin E, Folate, Zinc and B vitamins. Lots of great stuff here for your bird, and it tastes ok too! (If your bird doesn't like it at first, try adding a dash of cinnamon - Athena goes nuts over anything with cinnamon in it - and it makes her breath smell great too! :woohoo: )

 

Let me know if you try it out or are already using it!

Thats sounds really good and it sounds like something my birds would really enjoy, too. Thanks for telling us about it. Sounds yummy! {Nature-00020096}

Mika has his baby cereal every morning for his breakfast, and has had for about 4 months now he loves it. I love the convience of just mixing it with warm water and you get an instant breakfast another one he love is Nestles - Wheat, Yogourt & Raspberry again in the baby section of the food store.
