Talking Birdie Mash Made Today

Today is the first time I made the birdie mash here at home. This is my greys main diet so I had two grey helpers aka big piggy's with me as I worked. It took about 4 hrs to do since I didn't have my usual group of friends this time. Echo wanted absolutely everything I was chopping up. Vern just wanted the stuff she was familiar with like apple or melon.



Any way I think they were abit overwhelmed when I was done and let them get a taste of the final product.

Here is a slide show of the greys in overload!!

Mash Party For Two!

that is awesome, I wish we could do that with our AG but he wont even let us touch him. What does the mash consist of and do they eat all of that?

looks great. I just bought all the ingredients to make some and bought a freezer for the shop. I have three mixes i am going to make.
this way when people have say one bird and dont want to make so much, or dont have the time to do it, they can buy it from the shop.
