Hi Dave73, I have been using this seed cleaning process for several years now and I don't see any negative results and I believed that it cleans the seeds much better because when I clean up the vacuum can I see all the dust and bird poop after I use the strainer. My rule of thumb is to do recycle the seeds a couple of times and after that if there are more seeds that they don't consume I feed it the wild birds in my yard. By the way, I've never had an issue having webby bugs in my bird feeder. I always check it every morning. I hope this answers your questions and let me know if you need more information.

@@alex8426 Thanks for the response. I'll give it a go. Your system is great. It recovers so much seed. Cheers from Morangup WA.

Sorry, I'm not selling any of my birds. Gracias

Hi Johnny, I’ve used a 1.5 L plastic coffee creamer bottle and make sure that top opening will fit the vacuum hose

@@alex8426 hi. Thanks for replying. Ive made the vacuum part and it worked brilliantly. Its the size of the seive needed afterwards to seperate the poo from the left over seeds.

@@johnnymacf1 after the vacuum process I’ve used a pasta strainer that you’ll put the seeds and some of the poop and large seeds so you will end up with clean seeds to put back on the bird feeder. I hope this helps.

@@alex8426 thats great. Thanks for replying and what a brilliant idea you had!

The question. I came for cheers

You got a nice collection and mutation. I've started with zebras too and then a friend of mine told me to try the gouldians and I've never looked back. I've sold and gave away my zebras to my friends and now I only have the goulds.

@@alex8426 ok Alex its nice

I think you're asking me what they are eating? it's cascara de huevo (chicken eggshells)

@@alex8426 muchas gracias. 😀

Concha de huevo molida y carbon molido.

Hi, Males have brighter colors than females. If you want to learn more about this birds, visit my website mygouldianfinches.com

Yes, I did boil the eggshells, drain all the water, rinse and bake them in the oven on low heat until it's all dry. I've also used a grinder to make the pieces small for easy consumption.

@@alex8426 thank you

They go through molts

Hi Adriano, this is one of the Lady Gouldians health issues. There are several breeders said that it's iron deficiency, mites infestation, territorial issues where males are fighting and usually they will pull the head feathers of other males or even females, gouldians also lose their head feathers during molt season and eventually be replaced with new feathers. I hope I've provided you with good feedback.

Hi Aditya, yes they do. I only have an outside aviary and they are doing well. The only thing that I do when it gets too cold is cover all the side of the aviary with plastic turf. Right now it's winter here in California and it gets into low 30's and 40's at night and they are ok.

Thnx alex now i will buy it soon thnku so much

Qué es lo que les dan? gracias

@@jairogomez2666 les estan dando cascara de huevos y charcoal que es como carbon granulado

Charcoal is essential and a good mineral. They do consume these in the wild as part of their diet. Another thing that I will try is red clay, I see my finches nibble on the slump stone inside the aviary and I'm not possible what mineral they are trying to get out of it.

Cexi Lai This is an additional supplement that I provide for my birds to stay strong and healthy. Just an FYI they can finish 75 pounds of special finch mix a month plus green leafy vegetables and egg food. thanks for your concern

Alex Castillo . Ok I understand . They look happy and healthy. So you are doing the right thing with the supplement food.

Hi Cexi Lai, you should check out my website. mygouldianfinches.com see how I raised my birds and enjoy

pedro barros thanks Pedro

Thanks Pedro

HI Parker Benz, I go to McDonalds or Jack N Box and talk to supervisor or manager if I could have the eggshells that they will discard after breakfast hours. Once I have them, I will wash them as much as I can and then boil it for several minutes. When it's summer time, I will have them outside to dry or put them in a large tray and put it in an oven until it dries. Once it cools down, I will grind it by using a portable food processor until it's small enough for the birds to eat. BTW, we also save our eggshells whenever we eat eggs and save them in the freezer until it's time to make a batch.

Alex Castillo thanks for the advice! I think my gouldians like larger pieces of eggshell but I cant tell to be sure.

I used to give my birds big pieces too when I only have a few pairs, not that I have a lot of birds, I find it easier for them to eat small pieces that they don't have to fight for the same piece. If you have time, check out my website, I tried to share my experience from several years of having them as a hobby. The website is mygouldianfinches.com

Woah cool website!!! How many gouldians would you say you have? What state do you live in? I recently was given 8 mated pairs and 14 single gouldian finches from a former hobby breeder that didnt have the energy to care for all the birds anymore.

I believed I have more than 200 or 250 and they are all in an outdoor flight aviary. I'm from Southern California. I think you have enough to start. Good luck with your birds and don't worry, they are easy birds to take care of.

Hi Akram Raja, you can visit my website at mygouldianfinches.com and I have some information about the types of food i provide my birds

Alex Castillo your effort can be seen

Charcoal ? But how ? Isn't dangerous ?

@@ledaniezle537 Hi there are a lot of benefits that charcoal gives to the birds. You can google it and you'll be amazed. We humans also use charcoal to filter our drinking water as one example. I also provides them with tiny gravel and crush seashells as they get them on the wild.
