Beat a whole egg with a whisk in a deep bowl until the whites are stiff.
Add the beaten egg to the cooled sugar and water mixture.
Add two scoops of vitamin supplement powder specifically developed for birds to the mixture. Use the scoop provided with the supplement powder.
Stir the mixture thoroughly with a mixing spoon.
Pour the solution into ice trays and let it freeze overnight in the freezer. Defrost the mix before feeding it to the bird.
