Toucanet chicks are so friendly but always hungry. They’ll follow you anywhere if you have enough blueberries. They look fantastic thanks to the PHIT supplement powder available from biobirdblends.com. Almost weaned and eating on their own. Love raising these little guys!

With more than 50 ingredients in our medium and large mixes, you can’t find more diversity in a single bag. And we add seasonal items so each bag contains new items to keep things interesting for your birds! Over the next few weeks, you’ll see even more diversity as we rotate in new items like red dates, citrus slices and other nutritious items, especially in our 3lb and 6lb bags of Medium and Large blends. You can read more about these in the WHOLE FOOD DIET section at the shop link in our bio.
