Les tiroirs de faïence, telles que celle de l'illustration, sont aussi largement utilisés, mais ne sont pas recommandés. Ils sont si peu profonds qu'une grande partie de la nourriture est gaspillée en étant éliminé avec le bec de l'oiseau. Il y a une possibilité que ce vieux egg-alimentaire peut se coucher sur le plancher de la cage et forme une attraction dangereuse pour les jeunes oiseaux lorsqu'ils sont capables de quitter le nid.

. Canaries, hybrids, and British birds in cage and aviary. A SHALLOW EARTHENWARE EGG-DRAWER.. Shallow earthenware drawers, such as that illustrated, are also largely used, but are not recommended. They are so shallow that much of the egg-food is wasted by being knocked out with the bird's beak. There is a possibility that this stale egg-food may lie on the floor of the cage and form a dangerous attraction to the young birds when they are able to leave the nest. Should they pick about amongst it diarrhoea cjuickly super- venes. For this form of drawer, too, the front of the cage small glass ok has to be cut to allow of ^^™''*^'*'' its insertion. It will there- fore be seen that the deeper drawers and troughs before described are not only more advantageous but more convenient. Another useful little vessel, made in both glazed earthenware and glass, is also illus- trated. In this may be given a supply of boiled or soaked rape-seed when the birds are breeding. It does not occupy much room if stood on the bottom of the cage, and holds as much as should be given at one time. These vessels are also useful for supplying the young birds with a little egg-food while they are in the nursery cage. Crushed seed can also be given in one of them if so desired, or a little bread that lias been soaked in scalded milk. It will thus be seen how useful a few of such vessels are in the bird-room during the breeding season. In point of cleanliness nothing equals these earthen- ware or glass vessels. As we have dealt with the most suitable vessels in which egg-food can be given, it will not be out of j^lace if we Egg=Food. , , „ , , , . now treat 01 the best way of preparing the egg-food itself. Various methods are adopted. One. which we remember when quite a boy, was simply to cut in halves a cold hard-boiled egg, unshelled ; the two halves were cut through again, and each pair of birds that was feeding young, was supplied with a quarter, being allowed to feed from the solid piece of
