Frequently Asked Questions

Which species is this suitable for?
Classic Tropical Finches is formulated for tropical finch species including waxbills, weavers, mannikins, cordon bleus, firefinches, and similar exotic finches kept in aviaries or cages. It is not formulated for European finches such as goldfinches, greenfinches or siskins — for those species a native finch seed mix would be more appropriate.

Should I supplement this mix?
A seed mix forms a good base diet but is best supplemented with eggfood, fresh greens, grit and, particularly during breeding, live or dried insects for additional protein. Tropical finches have higher protein requirements during the breeding season and when rearing chicks.

How should I store a 20kg sack?
Store in a cool, dry, vermin-proof container or bin away from moisture and pests. Keep sealed when not in use to preserve freshness. A 20kg sack is suited to aviary keepers who go through feed regularly.

Is this suitable for breeding birds?
Yes — Classic Tropical Finches can be used year-round including during the breeding season. Additional protein supplementation (eggfood, live or dried insects) is recommended during breeding to support nutritional requirements during chick-rearing.

What is the Classic Birds range?
The Versele-Laga Classic Birds range is a series of traditional seed and cereal mixes for a variety of cage and aviary species. The Classic range uses natural seed and cereal blends formulated for specific bird groups, produced in Belgium by Versele-Laga.
