hi all, got a pair of cordons a few months ago, now they are getting frisky, my question to breeders, do they require maggots? Meal worms?. I have gouldians and boiled egg was fine. Have read cordons fussy at breeding time.

Maggots or termites are best Cordon livefoods. Maggots only if your birds are maggot-reared, otherwise termites.

My cordons love meal worms and beat all other birds to the feeding tray. November grass and white feathers for nesting.
