Well, the yellow or yolk is HIGHLY rich in proteins and nutritionally is the best part of the egg. The white is nutritionally poor! There are two methods of feeding eggs (yellow and white or only yellow). Either daily feeding of very small amounts or twice weekly of bigger amounts.

: On Saturday, I tried feeding some white from a boiled egg to Bert, my new canary. I guess the amount was about a teaspon full, or maybe a little bit more. He seemed to enjoy it quite a bit, and devoured most of it. What was left dried out and became unpallatable for him within about 24 hours.

: My question is, how often should one give egg to a canary, and how much is a good amount?

: Also, should one just feed the white of the egg (protein), or is the yolk (fat) okay too?
