How to Feed

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this a premium canary mix?
The inclusion of brown perilla and white lettuce seed alongside the core canary seed, rapeseed and niger base distinguishes this as a premium specification. Both perilla and lettuce seed are traditional conditioning seeds used by experienced canary breeders — less common in standard pet-trade mixes but valued for their palatability and nutritional contribution.

What is brown perilla?
Perilla (Perilla frutescens) is a member of the mint family whose seeds are naturally rich in aromatic oils and Omega-3 fatty acids. It has long been used as a conditioning seed for canaries and other finches, and is particularly valued during moulting and breeding seasons.

What is white lettuce seed?
White lettuce seed (from Lactuca sativa) is a small, oil-rich seed that canaries readily accept. It is a classic inclusion in quality canary conditioning mixes, providing additional essential fatty acids and acting as a natural appetite stimulant.

When should I supplement with egg food?
Egg food is particularly important during the breeding season (when feeding chicks) and during the moult (when the elevated protein demand of growing new feathers is highest). Offer fresh egg food daily during these periods alongside the seed mix.

How should I store it?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, in a sealed container to maintain freshness and prevent moisture ingress.
