Water additives........

[Canary]

I use the Epsom salts every 2 months with 1/4 teaspoon of Epsom salts to 1 litre of water. I leave it on my canaries for 1 week. I believe it helps purge their intestinal system and it appears to keep them healthy. I know that I do not use anywhere near the antibiotics that a lot of other canary breeders use.

The colour food I use is Canthaxathin. I feed it in the water once the chicks have left the nest until they have finished the moult.
