WHAT IS A SUITABLE DIET FOR ZEBRA FINCHES?
Zebra Finches are primarily seedeaters, and the BASIC diet consists of millets, and clean water. However, they will do better if certain additional materials are available. For example, mineralised or small oyster shell grit, crushed baked eggshell, cuttlefish bone should always be available. Additional seeds like small canary will also be taken, and small amounts of other tonic seeds like niger. A number of proprietary seed mixtures are on the market. Millet in the form of millet sprays is often a particular treat. Zebra finches will also take delight in clean, contamination free chickweed and seeding grasses.
