Your Friend,
=============================== BEE POLLEN Q AND A Do you know that bee pollen is often fed to canaries? It’s primarily used as a conditioning food to prepare a canary for breeding or during the molt. But it’s also used by breeders of song canaries to help increase their bird’s energy, thereby improving their songs.
(For more on improving your canary’s singing see
--What is Bee Pollen?-- It is a nutrient rich food containing beneficial vitamins and enzymes. It is made up of about 40% protein and has small amounts of honey mixed in so is also high in natural sugars. It’s a nutritious treat that is good for your canary--and you. Plus, it’s delicious so your bird will love it.
--How Do I Get Some Bee Pollen?-- You can get a “human grade” pollen at health food stores and some grocery stores. It’s also available at numerous places on-line. Any Google search for bee pollen will turn up several places to order it. “Pet grade” is also available. It’s not as clean and may contain bee parts like legs, wings, and who knows what else. I say, get the human grade and eat some of it yourself.
--What About Honey?-- Warning For Breeders: Pollen is too high in sugars to feed to baby canaries under the age of 2 weeks.
--How Much Of It Should I Feed?-- You can provide your canary with a simple dish of pollen or sprinkle it on seed, soak seed, greens, or egg food. If there is a particular food that your canary refuses to eat you might try adding a little pollen to it.
--CONCLUSION-- , Feel free to forward this email on to any friends or family that may be interested in the content. Let’s see how many pet owners we can help out. :-)
