Re: OT: Storing Parrot Food

[Guest guest]

Any bird,cat or dog food should be in an AIR TIGHT container. Do not leave it in

the bag. When air hits it is when it starts to mold, and the little bit at the

bottom (the fine stuff)when you get to it throw it out.

Thanks KC. Someone on a bird list thinks that refrigeration is better

than freezing, but I disagree. I don't know if my vet told me or I

read it somewhere that mold will grow on it in the refrig within days.
