418 Natural Sources Of Calcium

400+ Natural Sources Of Calcium

Important Notes:

  1. This list is a general list of natural sources of calcium some of the foods listed here may not be suitable for birds as they may contain other things besides calcium which may not be suitable for avian consumption.  So please check online for the compatibility of these foods for avian use before you feed your birds.
  2. Do not limit just to one source, bring in variety meant for picky eaters or birds that are fussy about what they eat.
  3. Never overfeed your birds just because a particular type of food is rich in calcium.
  4. The list indicates the calcium level in mg for every 100 g.
  5. Please remember, as much as calcium deficiency, excessive calcium too can prove to be equally harmful for your birds so practice moderation.
  6. Some of the foods in the list may not be available in your geographic location, don’t worry there are plenty of options and you can always find a whole lot of things that are available in your area.
