Some slop (salad) for the birds. I offer it daily until they get bored of it, take a break, then feed it again. Please suggest good base veggies for finch salad.

I usually like to have dark leafy greens like kale, broccoli, etc but I need to buy that tomorrow. Just lettuce, cucumber, and spinach for today with some sprouted millet and sprouted canary grass seed, topped with crushed cuttlefish. Usually I also add grit, but I hid my refill of grit so well that I haven't been able to find it... I cannot find it anywhere lol.
Mine also love carrot, mango, baby corn, and straight garden grass (for some reason). And any sort of sprout, especially the greens of rocket sprout.

Tips on cleaning and putting together bird feathers?
I've been collecting my pet parakeets feathers for a while and want to practice fixing up some of the feathers and cleaning it. Any tips?
Also I couldn't find a community for bird feathers cleaning, but I was hoping maybe somebody here knows anything.
