About Paradise Aviary's Insectivore Egg Food
Insect-eating birds naturally consume insects and other small invertebrates as part of their diet. Providing dried insects in captivity can help bird keepers replicate some of the variety found in a bird's natural feeding behavior.

Egg Food
Dried Bloodworms
Dried Mealworms
Dried Black Soldier Fly Larvae
These ingredients provide a combination of egg-based food and dried insects, making this product particularly useful for bird keepers working with species that naturally consume insects. (Paradise Aviary Exotics)

Insect-Based Nutrition for Breeding Birds
Breeding is one of the most demanding periods for many birds.
Birds raising young often require additional food as they provide nutrition for growing chicks. Species that naturally consume insects may have particularly strong responses to insect-based foods during breeding.
Paradise Aviary's Insectivore Egg Food provides breeders with a convenient way to offer egg food and multiple dried insect sources together.
The combination can be particularly useful when birds are preparing to breed, actively breeding, or raising young.
This is the same type of feeding approach we have used at Paradise Aviary Exotics when breeding our own African finches and softbills. (Paradise Aviary Exotics)
Ideal for African Finches & Softbills
This product was specifically created around the needs of African finches and softbill species that benefit from insect-based foods.
It can be an especially useful addition to the feeding program of bird keepers maintaining insect-eating species.
Rather than purchasing egg food, mealworms, bloodworms, and black soldier fly larvae separately, this product combines them into one convenient mix.
That makes it particularly useful for:
African Finch Breeders
Softbill Bird Keepers
Insect-Eating Birds
Breeding Aviaries
Exotic Bird Collections
Bird Breeders
Aviculturists
Egg Food & Dried Insects for Breeding Season
During breeding season, many bird keepers increase the variety of foods offered to their birds.
Egg food is commonly used as a supplemental food during breeding, while insect-based foods can be particularly valuable for species that naturally consume insects.
Paradise Aviary's Insectivore Egg Food combines both into a single feeding product.
The mix can be offered as part of a broader feeding program alongside the bird's regular diet and other appropriate foods.
How to Use Insectivore Egg Food
Offer the mix in a clean, dry feeding dish that is appropriate for your birds.
The product should be used as a supplemental food rather than automatically replacing the bird's complete diet.
During breeding season, breeders can incorporate the mix into their established feeding program and monitor how readily their birds consume it.
Fresh drinking water should always be available.
Because different bird species have different nutritional requirements, feeding frequency and quantity should be adjusted according to the individual species and breeding situation.
Using Insectivore Egg Food to Encourage Feeding
Many insect-eating birds are naturally attracted to insect-based foods.
The combination of egg food, bloodworms, mealworms, and black soldier fly larvae provides multiple textures and food sources in one mix.
This can make the product especially useful for birds that are naturally motivated to search for insects and other animal-based foods.
For breeders, having a highly attractive supplemental food available can also be useful when birds are feeding young.
Proper Storage
Because this product contains multiple dried food ingredients, proper storage is important.
Keep It Dry
Protect the mix from humidity and moisture.
Store in a Cool Location
Keep the product away from excessive heat and direct sunlight.
Keep the Container Sealed
After opening, keep the product sealed to help maintain freshness and protect it from pests.
