CONCENTRATED 



NATURAL ORANGE PLUMAGE 

 COLOUR FOOD FOR CANARIES, 



&C. 

 Prepared from the Recipe of a Practical Chemist and Ornithologist. 



For Producing a Deep Orange-Coloured Plumage 

 on Canaries, Mules, and other Cage Birds. 



Warranted free from any variety of Cayenne, sweet or tasteless Pepper, or 



indigestible matter. 

 It cannot possibly produce any tone of Red Colouration. 



THE active colouring agent of this preparation is identical with that found 

 in the petals of bright orange-coloured flowers, such as French and 

 English Marigolds, Saffron-Crocus, Nasturtiums, and such roots as Turmeric, 

 such fruits as Oranges and yellow Solanums, and just as the sweet principle of 

 the sugar-cane is contained in crystallised sugar, so the essential colouring 

 agent of the above-mentioned flowers, &c., is contained in this Food, compounded 

 with such other nutritive and palatable ingredients that render it very 

 acceptable to the birds. While being quite as innocuous as any of the above- 

 mentioned flowers in its action on the digestive organism of birds, it is very 

 much more powerful and certain in its effects in deepening the Natural Orange 

 Colour of the Plumage. The colour of this Food is greatly enhanced when 

 mixed ready for use according to the accompanying directions.
