The Brown Canary is one of the four "melaninici" presenting a dark background color. The selection is based on color, they are considered a subspecies of domestic canaries obtained after long and accurate selections made by amateur breeders.

Feeding: classic of domestic Canaries, they feed essentially on small seeds, which break the shell. Their diet is also integrated with other material of plant origin such as berries, fruit, vegetables and vegetables, while breeding pairs are given egg or insect larvae. To enhance the color, especially in red factor canaries, we also resort to the use of dyes added to the feed just before and during the pack.
