Is it ok

Saw weetabix at the grocery today and had to buy it. It reminded me of a less chewy shredded wheat. Good, yes. Life changing, no.

Mmmmmmm, buttered weetbix (wheetabix) with marmite. An after school treat as a kid. Thick coating of butter and a smear of marmite

Ah...maybe it is one of those things you have to grow up eating? You try it and let me know...

Marmite is a black, tar like, salty yeast spread (sounds horrible, I know) that New Zealand kids grow up with. Full of Vitamin B, and very yummy. Similiar to Vegemite, but both are quite different and most people choose one or the other

Could I feed my coturnix quail this, mixed with kitten chow and supplemented with greens, table scraps, millet spray/sprouts, and crickets. Also sand for grit.

I can't believe Weetabix isn't worldwide! It's one of the UKs best brands for decades. My favourite is with ice cold milk and sliced bananas but also love with Greek yoghurt instead of milk and dried fruits.
I never liked it with warm milk Asif goes to stodgy but my chickens LOVE it warm. I give them 1 with warm milk mashed up between 4 of them a couple times a week. It's great when it's cold out and they gobble it up even after their pellets!

Any time that regular treats are give then the daily ration should be reduced by that amount.

I give my chickens weetbix mixed with rolled oats and just add water every second day. They love it. You guys and gals in USA dont know what you are missing it is the best brecky cereal.
