Oven-fry meatballs for a crisp texture and shorter cooking time. Heat the oven to 425 F. Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in an oven-safe, heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat until shimmering. Brown one side of the meatballs; then turn them in the pan using tongs.
In nature, finches eat a diet that mostly comprises seeds. This has led some keepers to believe that finches can thrive on just seeds, but such a limited diet is no more healthy for a finch than an all-cheese diet would be for a person.
They eagerly take egg food (Roy's egg food), greens and soaked seed, although I rarely feed the later two. Zebra finches are adapted to survive and raise their young on lower protein levels than many other finches and can actually raise their young on seed alone.hey eagerly take egg food (Roy's egg food), greens and soaked seed, although I rarely feed the later two.
