Yolky Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I am sure that I read a recipe for home made pecka blocks. I can't afford any proper pecka blocks at the mo with how expensive the postage is (or do they sell pecka bloks at countrywide stores?) and so I thought I might try the home made recipe. Hope someone can help. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 This the one? (copied and pasted from another forum ) You will need a stick of some sort, garden cane works well, cut a piece of cane and drill a hole near one end for hanging it up. Next collect the ingredients you want to add, mixed corn, pellets etc. Crack a fresh egg into a bowl, mix the egg with a few dessert spoons of flour & a drop of water. So that it forms a runny paste. Cut a long wide piece of kitchen tin foil. Then in the bowl that you have the mixed egg & flour, add the mixed corn etc, mix it all up so the mixed corn & pellets start to stick together. Give it a good mix so that everything is coated. Spoon the mix onto the tin foil to make a long sausage shape, you can add the stick through the middle at this stage. Then wrap the foil around the ingredients and press firmly so it sticks together to form a sausage like shape. Then put it in the oven at 120 degrees for an hour to let it dry out slowly. Check it's hard, if not leave a bit longer then let it cool and let the birds test it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
