Tasty Tuesday (new edition for 2021!)
Added 2021-01-20 00:00:00 +0000 UTCSome Tasty Tuesday episodes are going to be educational (like this one!) where Patty and I answer your specific questions, while others are going to be Capri and I making recipes from my Natural Feeding System Cookbook set or even submissions from you guys! Every month it will be a surprise about which type of episode is headed your way. I hope you enjoy them all and leave me feedback on your favorites!

Today I had an “expert” on budgies tell me that we should not feed pellets but only fresh chop and seeds and they should have access to seed 24/7. It made me so sad

2021-02-03 18:57:34 +0000 UTCI have a follow-up question on this topic! Does it still hold that sprouted seeds, legumes, and grains are healthier than unsprouted? (e.g. beans, oat groats, millet) Thanks!! 🌱

2021-01-29 04:29:49 +0000 UTCThanks for the info!! I plan to get him in to our new certified avian vet as soon as possible, so I will ask about milk thistle! I’m glad it has worked for Bondi!! That gives me hope for my Merlin. 🦜❤️

2021-01-27 14:18:09 +0000 UTCDepending on his labs, you may consider milk thistle as a lifetime supplement. We have Bondi on it for life since messing up her diet originally and it has helped a ton. But I would only use it based on a vet recommendation so they can give you proper dosage (otherwise you can over do it and make the bird's digestive area and bowels uncomfortable).

2021-01-27 14:18:00 +0000 UTCOMG about the 90% pellets!! Before we got an avian certified vet in our area, I had to deal with the ”best of the worst” options for a vet who is not certified for birds but sells himself on “being a member of the AAV”. I digress, but this vet told me that my Amazon should be on 90% pellets and 10% fruit! Not even veggies, but fruit! I’m eternally grateful I found BirdTricks and have my boy eating the fresh food seasonal diet and your pellets!!! I’m hoping that over time his liver numbers will go down some, so he can live into his 60s and beyond! Thanks for all you do to educate us bird lovers!! ❤️

2021-01-24 00:34:44 +0000 UTCAwesome TT! I am looking forward to the rest of 2021. I have been wondering about soaking nots. I’m so glad to get the info!

2021-01-24 00:33:12 +0000 UTCI asked Patty and here’s her reply: Yeah there’s tons of sodium added to canned beans and rinsing them only removes about 30% of it. There are no salt added brands which can be used, though. However, they won’t hold up to the freezing process and will usually turn to mush once thawed. If she wants to use no salt added canned beans they would have to be added to the meal on a daily basis.

2021-01-23 22:15:37 +0000 UTCThis was awesome. Thanks to you and Patty 😊 I have a question. Is is acceptable to use canned beans in place of the cooked beans or lentils in the seasonal feeding system recipes?

2021-01-23 15:06:47 +0000 UTCI LOVE your videos together!!! And seriously, as many times as you guys had to say “soaking your nuts” you really held it together! 😂
Jennifer Percopo
2021-01-23 00:05:58 +0000 UTCSoaking nuts is a huge VEGAN thing... for the reason Patty said but also because it can make them easier to work with when creating recipes ;)

2021-01-21 14:43:56 +0000 UTCLoved this!!!!! Informative and funny! lol....
Tara Dalton
2021-01-20 10:46:47 +0000 UTCMy bird soaks everything that isn't nailed down but never nuts. Those don't last long enough to get soaked. Love Patty❣️❣️ Awesome TT episode!

2021-01-20 07:50:21 +0000 UTC"Don't soak your birds nuts"...hmmm...I guess I should be careful about how I shower-bathe Fred. 😉 He's my Tanimbar corella (Goffin's cockatoo). 🤣 Love you two. 🥰

2021-01-20 07:26:52 +0000 UTCLoved the blooper reel at the beginning. I recently heard of it in a 2 year old Mikey and Mia video with a guest who did it. The samples she brought where very heavy on nuts so that might be why or maybe it's just a European thing. Either way, I had the same reaction as Patty. I'm pretty sure it was before your consult / collab with them so hopefully you set them straight. :)

2021-01-20 03:08:04 +0000 UTCI wouldn't have been able to say it straight either...LOL! I love Patty's explanations and they all make sense to me. Thank you Patty for being awesome!
