What kind of food does a thrush eat?

Thrushes are omnivorous birds, but they feed mainly on insects all the year round, especially in the breeding season, most of which are agricultural and forestry pests, including locusts, stink bugs, pine caterpillars, beetle shells, larvae of Lepidoptera moths and other moths. Plant foods are mainly seeds, fruits, grass seeds, wild fruits, strawberries and so on. In the breeding season, parent birds catch a large number of insects in order to feed their nestlings. in the non-breeding season, there are fewer insects and feed on a variety of plant fruits, weed seeds or tender vegetables.

Feed selection of thrush

1. Chick thrushes: mung bean noodles, yellow eel paste, tomatoes and cooked eggs are mixed and mixed with water. Feed them with sticks, five times a day, or use live worms or soft fruits to induce food. When the thrush begins to peck, gradually increase the egg yolk powder and switch to regular feed.

The proportion is generally 00.5 kg, with 2 eggs and 3 eggs. To feed the beef, cut the beef into two millet grains, dry them and feed them.
