A NOTE FROM THE ADVISOR
===================================

Dear

The trip to Texas was GREAT! My Dad is doing wonderful and was happy to see his Grandkids again.

Now that I’m back at home I’m trying to get back into the swing of things.

This issue contains the final part in a 4 part series on feather plucking. Feather plucking is a major problem among parrot breeds. It’s not quite as bad among canaries but it does happen.

Read through the article below and make sure your canary is getting the nutrition he needs.

Until next time...Keep Your Canary S-I-N-G-I-N-G!

Your Friend,

Malnutrition
Feather Plucking Pt 4

Malnutrition is the number one cause of feather plucking in pet birds.

Although your canary can live a long life on a “seed only” diet, he certainly won’t be in the best condition. After months and years of improper nutrition your canary may develop all kinds of illnesses and conditions.

It’s estimated that 75 - 90% of caged birds suffer from malnutrition. If you provide a solid diet of seed, fruit, and veggies, you’re way ahead of the game.

Canary Feeding

It’s smart though, to add a vitamin and mineral supplement to your canary’s diet for insurance.

A lack of calcium is often attributed to feather plucking. Calcium is needed for proper nerve and brain function and a deficiency in this mineral can cause nervous disorders...like feather plucking.

Calciboost is one of the best calcium supplements on the market for birds. The maker claims it has a calming effect. It also contains Vitamin D and Magnesium.

Vitamin A is also important. You can provide Vitamin A by feeding sweet corn or apricots. Soaked (sprouted) seed is also a good source of vitamin A as well as many other vitamins.

Other important vitamins include Vitamin E, B, and D.

A good multivitamin and mineral supplement is Feather Up. It’s specifically formulated for birds during the molt or for feather pluckers.

Keep feeding and supplementing your canary’s diet with healthy and high quality foods and take a major step in avoiding feather plucking.
