Full description
A bird working through a moult or raising chicks needs more from its diet than a seed mix alone can give it, which is what an egg food supplement is for rather than a replacement.
Beaphar's Egg Food is a complementary food built around eggs and egg derivatives (0.44%), cereals, seeds and dried vegetable protein extracts. Beaphar's own feeding guide scales it to what's happening in the bird's year: a quarter of the daily requirement generally, stepped up to two or three times daily during breeding, given daily during a moult, and twice weekly the rest of the year.
- Complementary food (not a complete diet on its own)
- Protein 15.7%, fat 11.1%, fibre 1.9%, ash 2.7%
- Calcium 0.19%, phosphorus 0.45%
- Contains egg and egg derivatives (0.44%)
- Beaphar's feeding guide varies by season (breeding, moulting, other)
- 1KG bag
On feeding. This is a supplement, not a complete food, and Beaphar's own guide changes through the year — daily during breeding and moulting, twice weekly otherwise — so feeding it at one flat rate all year round isn't what the manufacturer intends.
Who it's for: keepers of canaries and other exotic birds through breeding or moulting, wanting extra nutritional support alongside a normal seed diet rather than a full food swap.

Why we chose it
A supplement that scales with the bird's actual year — more during breeding and moulting, less the rest of the time — is more useful than a flat daily additive, and it's the reason to keep it as a separate purchase rather than folding it into a seed mix. Egg-based supplements are also standard practice for breeding birds, which is what this is built for.
