I bought the red pepper but Jake has never eaten wet feed before, really only likes the pellets, so I didn't know how well she would eat it & how much to feed for just 1 bird at 4 months old.I put red pepper in the fermented feed as a preventative. Since I never had it I can't say if it really works. 1/4 heaping cup to about 2 gallon of dry feed, mixed with enough water to make like oatmeal consistency
Some people just sprinkle it on top of the regular feed. To be clear, it is cayenne pepper that they use because there is red pepper that is not cayenne pepper.I bought the red pepper but Jake has never eaten wet feed before, really only likes the pellets, so I didn't know how well she would eat it & how much to feed for just 1 bird at 4 months old.
