View Full Version : Birdie bread is like warm turkey on Thanksgiving...

I've figured out how to calm my birds down in the morning before I go to class. Usually they are so jumpy and squawking loudly, but I've been giving them warm birdie bread a half hour before I leave. They seriously just run to it, chomp on it for a bit, and then go to their sleeping spots and start to drift off. It's like warm turkey on Thanksgiving and how you get so tired afterwards. :rofl: They look like they've taken a few downers. I didn't slip anything in there. :whistle: LOL.

Joanie,

In the morning is when I give mine their birdy bread also. They never really want to go back into their cages, and some birdy bread is just the thing to lure them back in ;)

Hey Sandy,

Here's a link to the birdie bread recipe: http://www.lovebirdsplus.com/community/showthread.php?t=190


If your birds don't eat it right away, keep offering it to them, and act like you are eating some yourself, and make YUUUMMMMM noises like it's really good. If yours are anything like mine, they think they are always supposed to have whatever I am eating :lol

Mine love it, too! Well, Oliver doesn't exactly love it but he's doing better at eating it these days! :D My dog loves it more than Shy and Big Boi.....I share a little bite with her every time I warm up a piece for them. :D

You're only supposed to act like you're eating it? I eat a little everytime I give it to Ditto. And he yells at me for eating his breakfast! :lol But it's so darn tasty!

LOL Dave,

I would eat mine too but I've started putting in some bird seed cause they really seem to like it that way, so I don't partake anymore :lol

A little birdseed never hurt anybody.
