Fresh Gumnuts (1kg) – Drilled or Un-drilled

$26.00$41.00 (inc GST)

A pack of 1 kilo of fresh Gumnuts, perfect to give to your bird to chew and eat. Put them in a Baffle Cage, thread onto wire or a skewer (drilled options) or simply put in your birds’ foraging tray or bowl.

The Gumnuts are picked fresh and may be green to brown or grey in colour. The cup of each Gumnut is manually cleaned, they are drilled (if selected) and briefly soaked in a solution of F10 veterinary disinfectant before being lightly dried in the sun. This dries the surface of the Gumnut from being cleaned, but does not dry out the entire Gumnut. I check the Gumnuts for issues or parasites before sending. These are natural seed pods and some may have small amounts of natural scarring or small insect bites/holes on the outside.

Gumnuts are fresh and therefore moist inside. They should be used soon after receiving and are not suitable to be stored for later use. You can keep them in the fridge to last a little longer and smaller pack sizes are available. If you are in a remote area or Western Australia, please consider selecting express post, to maximise freshness, as standard or courier postage can take 10 business days or more to these locations.

Description

These seed pods are seasonally available and depend on local sources. They may also be from various trees so might be different in size and colour to each other. Once you place your order, I collect and prepare them fresh – they are never ‘in stock’, ready to be sent. I will contact you if there are any issues with supply at the time (eg if you order more than I can obtain or if poor weather delays collection significantly). Your order will contain a pack of Gumnuts that are washed and dried. I weigh out your kilo soon after collecting them and keep your batch separate while preparing them. Particularly if you choose for holes to be drilled in the Gumnuts, the final weight of your Gumnuts may be less than 1 kilo due to weight lost from the drill holes and from the light sun dry.

    Keep a spare kilo or two as I’ll be ordering these again. Mitchell just loves them. He’s not mad about banksia cones and pine cones are okay, but give him a gumnut any day…

    Haha, great to hear! 🙂 I like to provide these as fresh as possible so normally collect them once I’ve received an order. Glad he’s loving them, thanks.
