Can these be frozen?
- Thank you for your question. The Lafeber's Avi-Cakes do freeze well. They do have to be at room temperature to feed.

Are there Avi Cakes for canaries? There doesn't seem to be many treats for canaries. Why?
- You can give these to canaries. I have given them to my Red Factor Canary. I just crumble them up ontop of his seed. He does pick at them. He will try anything I give him lol. But he loves veggies and fruits.

how do I know My conure is eating enough avicakes? I also have pellets
- Keep a close eye on her weight and make sure she isn't losing weight. One way is to make sure you can just feel her breastbone (keel). Bird should have a rounded chest where you can feel the keel easily but there is neither fat bulging out on either side as "birdie cleavage" or the keel jutting out. The space between the bottom of their keel and their pelvis should be barely concave (not pooching out) and their skin should show dark red organs and muscle beneath on the chest and abdomen, not yellow fat.

Care of crickets
- When I received my shipment of 500, there was only one dead one! You'll need about a 5 gal. size aquarium to keep them in. They are rather small when you get them, but they will grow while you have them. Their life expectancy depends on their age. Adults live I think 2-3 wks., while the younger ones are like 3-4 wks. Drs. Foster and Smith have an article here on their website about the care and keeping of crickets. They even have one on how you can breed your own! You need to keep them kind of warm (you can use a 40 watt bulb in a reflective dome) and also a little bit moist. Be sure to keep some type of food and etc. for them. I use Fluker's Calcium Fortified Diet and also Fluker's Calcium Fortified Quencher for their water needs. This gut loads my crickets and makes them much healthier to feed to my lizards. Check out the articles available to you on this website (Drs. Foster & Smith) and read the ones that relate to the type of pet you are feeding and raising. Good luck!
