Soaking seeds are chosen by expert breeders to sprout and be fed at their most nutritional.

Parrot Nature Diet is a unique mix which is low in fat and most beneficial (nutritional) after soaking, when it's been allowed to sprout.

SOAKING INSTRUCTIONS: It takes at least two days to prepare the soaked and sprouted seeds.

HOW TO PREPARE:

• Place enough seed for a one day feed in a bowl and soak in plain water for 24 hours (the water can be warm, but not hot, as you pour it in).
• Keep the mixture at room temperature (not in a fridge) throughout the 24 hours needed to soak.
  
• Then drain, rinse in cold water and drain again.
  
• Leave for another 12-18 hours at room temperature to germinate (rinse seeds occasionally in cold water during this stage).
  
• Finally, rinse thoroughly in cold water. When you see a small white shoot poking out of the seeds and chickpeas, the mixture is then ready to feed to the birds.
  
• This diet is low fat, natural, varied and better than feeding just the usual sunflower seed-based diet.
