This is aviculturist and biologist Jason Crean’s private Facebook group that deals exclusively with raw whole food nutrition in the feeding of birds.  This group was created to accompany the information disseminated by Jason Crean in his lectures to avian groups across the country. The philosophy of the group is simple: feeding an abundance of raw, whole foods is what our birds need to thrive and this is a place for sharing different methods in which to do so.
