Any Q

Crumbled bread is suitable in small quantities, but moisten if it is very dry. During the breeding season, make sure bread is crumbled into tiny pieces so that it is safer to eat. Dry chunks of bread will choke baby birds, and a chick on a diet of bread may not develop into a healthy fledgling.


Are breadcrumbs OK for birds?

It is OK to feed birds bread crumbs in the smallest amount, on any given day, if that is not all they are eating. To continue feeding on bread when seeds or peanuts are needed for protein, birds can develop health issues later. Crumbs serve as a filler only, leading to bread swelling up in their stomachs.

What bread is safe for birds?

Good Bread Options Whole grain, multi-grain breads are best, especially if they are organically produced with minimal preservatives. Making a "sandwich" for the birds with extra ingredients to provide additional nutrition helps make the bread even healthier, such as adding: Peanut butter or other nut butters.
