bird minerals

went in to my local pet shop to get some hay and stuff and saw bird minerals ??ok some one please explain to me why i have to give this to my birds or dont i...and also can some one explain red mite...i saw it on some advert about protecting your birds from"red mite"???HEEELLLLPPP...!!!!

hi abby, i give my birds the pink minerals which also have vitamins in them.......also i give something called matrix which has alsorts of grts, minerals and seeds in it which has the taste of aniseed which the birds seem to love............

did you see the reply to one of your topics about "what should you look for when buying"
red bull lofts has offered you some stock birds if you want them.....

hi David should i just mix these minerals in with the bird food that a give them...i know silly question...lol....by the way i have replied to the post about birds..thanks

some people do mix pink minerals with the corn abby, i havnt done so far but just add it fresh each day in a pot along with matrix........i only put enough for them to eat it all rather than fill the pot up.
