Homemade Bird Food Mix
Homemade Carp Boilies Made Using Nut Fishing Bait Recipes For Big Fish!
Nut, seed and pulse baits for carp have always been outstanding. With so many carp anglers using marine, fish, and meat based baits today, being different represents a massive competitive advantage. So try out some seriously potent, habit forming nut based homemade baits and recipes instead! Read on to discover more about how to drive your carp wild right and boost your catches big-time right now!
One of the simplest ways to make a nut bait is to buy a readymade semolina and soya base mix (or make this yourself for less money,) and add your nut ingredients and additives to this. Two of the most well proven carp bait nut ingredients are tiger nut meal and roasted peanut meal (technically tiger nuts are not actually nuts but nut sedge tubers.) The options for making endless forms of unique nut baits are very exciting, and offer many varied effects, special nutritional properties and other beneficial characteristics.
You could perhaps try beginning by using any homemade bait base mix with around 50 percent or more of nut ingredients. One of the greatest edges of incorporating tiger nut meals etc into your base mixes is not merely the sugars and oils or carbohydrate content, but the powerful digestion-boosting impacts of its unique fibre. In the case of peanuts, and almonds for instances it is the alkaloids content that make them even more habit-forming.
Walnuts and other nuts such as macadamia nuts, hazelnuts, and pistachio nuts need using too "" these have potent lipids and some particularly stimulating bioactive factors few anglers will ever have realised they contain! Ground nut oil is one of the cheapest essential sources of omega oils you can find in the supermarket "" maybe try it mixed with toasted sesame seed oil and hemp oil or walnut oil for instance!
You can save a fortune and make a basic soya flour and semolina base mix with your nut ingredients plus eggs to help binding. Or perhaps add additional CLO, egg albumin and whey gel, or even add just little wheat gluten for instance for a practical binding bait. Of course for those wishing for a more nutritious and more digestible bait, very many options and combinations are possible to create a bait totally unique to yourself. For example, with the addition of Vitamealo, sodium or calcium caseinate, lactalbumin or whey protein concentrate, soya isolate, caseins, enzyme-treated yeast, corn steep liquor powder, various pre-digested fish proteins and so on.
The CC Moore bird food ingredients including Sweet Meggablend and Meggablend Red, the gritty maize protein product Supergold 60 (60 percent digestible protein and nutritionally good enough to replace fish meals,) are just a sample of excellent ideal additions to nut based baits. But you can turn your bait into a really unusual one by combining many various nutritionally valuable and very attractive ingredients. For example using crushed tiger nuts, tiger nut flour and crushed hemp and adding krill meal, spirulina powder, bloodworm extract and tuna oil for instance.
If you want to cut your costs you can use maize meal or maize flour for up to half your bait to bulk it up. Carp love maize all year round even in winter, despite it not being the most nutritional nor digestible ingredient for cheap bulking up; it simply works! (It does naturally contain betaine and other bioactive antioxidants among other important factors.) I find using maize meal in combination with full fat semolina produces a bait that is easier to roll if cost is really an issue, however I would very much prefer to use highly nutritionally attractive ingredients which contain far more feed-triggering substance reasons to turn carp on!
Popular examples are Belachan, fish meals, krill and shrimp powders, calcium and sodium caseinates and blood powder, lactalbumin and whey protein concentrate. Egg albumin is a great highly nutritional binder and is often used in a fifty percent combination with whey gel. Wheat gluten is a another well proven binder where bait digestibility is less important. The milk powder products Vitamealo and Lamlac are very useful in aiding binding and soya isolate is another high-protein ingredient I have found really works well functionally in baits, from over decades of homemade bait making.
CC Moore pre-ground CLO is an attractive bird food based binder with a great track record which is ideal for economical absolutely top quality trustworthy very effective homemade mixes; you can include perhaps 8 ounces per pound of dry mix. If you use semolina it is a good idea to use only up to 7 ounces per pound of dry mix and ensure you improve the nutritional attraction of the bait intrinsically by adding some choice additives and ingredients, such as Robin Red, corn steep liquor powder, vanilla extract meal, molasses meal, CC Moore dried insect meal and shrimp type products for instance.
To make your nut baits compete effectively and even out-fish the best ready made baits you need more than this in your arsenal of knowledge.

Why don’t my budgies eat their egg food at all??
Well, I have a breeding pair and its essential for them to have a rich diet to produce healthy chicks….they eat their seed, cuttlebone and veggies + fruits i slice and hang in their cage ( they rip it off and love it!!) but today I served them egg food ( hard boiled egg and its yolk finely chopped and grated carrot mixed with it cause they LOVE carrots ) but they didn’t even bother trying it…the hen just glanced at it and left…the cock grabbed a few bits of carrots but they didn’t eat it! I think thats because they were never usedto eating it but what can i do to make them try it or make it seem attractive for them?? should i sprinkle some seed on top?
Did anybody with birds overcome such a problem and please tell me if ur birds love certain homemade food mixes or recipes .
Thanks and points awarded to good answers!

easy inexpensive (homemade) rat food recipes???
I just got two small fancy rats for an early X-mas gift! And I would like to beable to make their food mixes myself. anyone have some good Ideas for food mixes that are good for rats???
curently I am using a mixture of wild bird seed,cherrio’s,trail mix (nuts and rasins) and a few potato chips thrown in for a treat (they love their chips!)
The mouse food that you mentioned is fine to feed them. Sometimes with parrotlets it is hard if they are feed an all seed diet before you get them, to have them try new things. Parrotlets in the wild are ground foragers, that means that they run around on the ground hunting for food. I do certain things for my breeding pairs so that they will at least try the foods I prepare. I bought a food processor- so sometimes I run things through that. Sometimes just cutting up the food a different way makes it more desirable to them. I buy small white paper plates (no designs sometimes they won’t go to them if they have big funky designs on them) and put their fresh food on the plates. I take sprays of millet and grind it with my fingers through the fresh food- parrotlets LOVE millet! You can even take small cut up pieces of paper and place them over the plate, leaving enough space for the bird to see their is food under there. This acts as a foraging toy and sometimes makes it more interesting for them. Usually the parrotlets will at least try some of what is on the plate because they are eating the millet pieces.
Also I steam corn on the cob, and cut the pieces in half long ways and then cut them so they are short half cobs. I place these on the bottoms of the cages…alot of my parrotlets love these.
Budgies don’t like egg.
Parrotlet diet?
I recently adopted a young parrotlet. I have a little “homemade” mouse food I mixed up no longer need, so I was thinking I could mix a little in with his food. It has oats, raisins, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, and kashi cereal. Would it be safe to add to my parrotlets seed? I just hate to throw it away.
Also–I can’t get my bird to eat any fresh food other than brocolli. I’ve offered apples, strawberries, peaches, carrots, green beans, corn, and rice, but he’s not interested. Any suggestions on getting him to eat other things?

I’m not sure about the barley, but everything else is good. I would recommend just keeping everything dry. Adding water to it, cooking it, etc. may just spoil the food. Rats like to chew on things anyway. They LOVE dry, uncooked pasta
Mine really like the spiral noodles that come in spinach and tomato flavor like these: http://www.deliciousdelicious.com/archives/pasta%20salad%202.jpg If you can, find some multi-grain, natural, unsweetened cereals and add that. And you don’t really have to feed your rats at any certain time. They should have food available 24/7. They do not eat big meals, they eat tiny bits of food periodically throughout the day and they’ll do most of their eating at night.
Homemade pet mouse diet?
What is a simple recipe for a pet mouse, no more than 5 ingredients. I need it as an alternate to commercial foods. I was think of mixing oats or groats with birds seed.
Here’s a good rat diet you could model from.

Bird seed is made for birds, pet mice need a more balanced diet then that.
