My birds, even the Goffin and Amazons sometimes find regular almonds too tough to crack. With these I am forced to pinch off one side with a pliers before serving.
They and my Hahn's especially love when I have a supply of these soft-shell almonds. The shell feels almost papery and if you look at the pic below you can see it is almost as if it only got the inner layer you can sometimes see on grocery store bin almonds, and is missing that really hard outer layer.
My Hahn's is able to open pine nuts in a snap, but really can't manage regular almonds, they are too big. But with the soft shell he is a happy boy.
Here's the description. They will be redoing their webpage in the next few weeks but right now it is the last entry on the next-to-last page of "Products" - "Nuts" The word to key in on in the description is "Inshell"
There’s no need for a nut-cracker…that’s right these Nonpareil variety almonds have a naturally soft shell that allows you to use your hands to crack them open and enjoy them fresh out of their shell.
