Jerry, I'm happy that your young birds are working for you! We all enjoy watching our birds live up to our dreams. I would however caution you about the feed. Remember, they are young and need the proper nutrition, minerals, and clean water. I do not mean to imply that you are not giving everything they need, just be very careful not to fall into the, I want to see them roll now, trap. Slow is best (my opinion). Breaking down very young birds might not be the best in the long term. Again, this is just my opinion and hopefully others will chime in.

i understand what ur saying maybe i should haved worded it differntly the reason i said little feed is because i left for two days and i dont have an automatic feeder and no one to care for the birds so i left feed in there for them that i thought would last for a least a day with the intentions of two days but if its there they will eat it and i didnt want them to ova feed so it is possible that they didnt eat one day and if they did it sas very little feed left from the day before
