Eggfood is the name commonly given to a supplemented crumb-like food which bird keepers have traditionally fed to their birds alongside suitable seed mixtures. Quantities given usually increase markedly during the breeding season.
Young chicks are very dependent on the feed from their parents (or you if you are handrearing!) and the quality of the food is very important. Feast Eggfoods are great for increasing the protein and vitamin/mineral content of the seed diet for better breeding results. They are also a really great food for adding other supplements to, as dry seed is not good for this role since most birds husk their seed meaning they would then not actually eat the supplements you might have thoughtfully added. Feast Eggfoods can also be mixed in with chopped fruits and vegetables for parrot species.
Feast is the first ever soft food to contain a prebiotic. Prebiotics are natural substances that help create a good environment for the friendly bacteria and, at the same time, make it a less attractive place for nasty germs like protozoa and disease causing bacteria. As well as this, Feast also contains natural immunomodulators that maximise the effect of the bird's natural immune system all of which combine to help reduce the risk of young chicks succumbing to disease. Feast has a 16% protein level and contains a comprehensive range of vitamins, minerals and amino acids.

I’ve used this product for the first time this year and have found that my birds have had high levels of fertility and have successfully reared their chicks. When they have young they are waiting for me to give them the feast. Birds bred- Painted Finches and other Australian Finches.
Although this is not marketed as a food for chickens, my 6 hens absolutely love it, and I believe that it is good for them!
The birds love it as soon as I put it in the dishes the birds are straight at it great feed
Have used this product for years. It's easy to use straight from the packet and my canarys love it.
This is quite simply the best egg food your money can buy for your bird/birds as it’s full of do much goodness.
I have used feast for years as a vehicle to give my birds calcium and vitamin supplements. I am also pleased that it contains various herbs and amino acids which they otherwise wouldn’t get & are beneficial to them. I don’t use it as the crumbly consistency suggested or mixed with diced fruit as I find a lot gets wasted this way and it’s hit and miss as to whether they eat the vits/calcium. Instead, I mix it with the powders in a pot then add cooled boiled water and allow it to swell until it is a play dough like consistency. Then it is easy to cut little lumps out appropriate to the size of each bird and distribute . I find they prefer to pick it up and eat it in a lump. I use this method for all my birds - sun conures up to macaw size. I normally use the parrot fruit kind but they like both flavours.
I love the smell of this food when I am mixing it. My birds like it slightly moistened and I also add cooked rice, peas, sweetcorn and scrambled egg. Needless to say when I walk in the aviary the birds all come to greet me.
A great eggfood that I feed all year round to assorted canaries , finches and Diamond doves they all love it and keeps them in great condition.
Birds love it, not had any go 'light' since been on it. Hopefully will give me a good season with youngsters this year!
