The Care and Feeding of Birds 
The proper care and feeding of birds is simple, and if 
followed, you will have little difficulty in raising a choice 
singer. Beware of stale seed or seed having a musty odor. It 
will upset the entire intestinal tract and often throws your 
bird out of song for months, besides often causing baldness. 
Purchase your bird seed where you are sure to have it fresh. 
Use Fullsong Mixed Bird Seed, it is scientifically mixed to 
give the bird the variety of clean fresh seeds that is necessary 
to the health and happiness of canaries. 
In order to digest his food properly, the canary should also 
have access to clean grit and gravel to grind his food, sweeten 
contents of the stomach, and supply necessary minerals. 
Fresh, clean water is very essential to the well being of a 
canary. The bird should be given clean water in a clean water 
dish every day. 
Many canaries are killed or caused to lose their song by 
over-feeding on tid-bits such as sweets or pastry, which are 
not good for seed-eating birds. While some people advocate 
the feeding of green stuff to canaries, we have found that 
more often than not this is injurious as usually the bird is 
allowed to have too much. Fullsong Mixed Bird Seed is a 
sufficient and well-balanced diet for canaries, without the use 
of these often injurious tid-bits. 
As treats for canaries we advise some of the foods which 
we will describe later. These are made from different seeds 
which make up the canary’s normal diet, but give him a little 
more variety than can be had in a mixed bird seed. Some of 
these have distinct medicinal properties and are used in 
treating various ailments to which canaries are subject. 
Several times a week a canary should be allowed to bathe 
in a dish of clean water from which the chill has been removed 
and to which Antiseptic Wash has been added. 
Never permit him to hang in the kitchen, as the steam from 
the cooking will cause him to take cold, and his song will stop 
indefinitely. Do not place the cage close to the cold, frosty 
window for he will become chilled and this checks his singing 
for a time. Hang it at one side of the window" so that he does 
not come in direct contact with the glass. Your bird will stand 
considerable cold if there is no draught, but he cannot stand 
much heat or smoke; it quickly overcomes him. 
IMPORTANT—The Ideal Diet for all Canaries: One 
seed dish full of FULLSONG BIRD SEED, one tonic dish 
full of Fullsong Health Food, and fifteen drops of Fullsong 
Bird Bitters in a water cup full of clean water each day. This 
diet with Fullsong Gravel on the cage floor comprises the 
daily care we give our own birds and we have a minimum 
amount of sickness, with a maximum amount of song. When 
followed strictly the above treatment is inexpensive and re¬ 
quires a minimum amount of time and labor.
