Askio Nature NestCare Bird Hand Rearing Formula is designed to offer more than just food, it's a complete, scientifically formulated diet that supports parrot chicks through every developmental stage. This product helps to establish strong health foundations by providing the right nutrients, in the right proportions, during the most crucial phase of a parrot's life.

The formula contains high-quality ingredients like cornflour, wheat flour, and dried egg, enriched with natural coconut oil, carob flour, and essential minerals like calcium carbonate. These ingredients ensure optimal digestibility and provide the necessary energy and nutrients for rapid growth and feather development.

The NestCare formula is easy to prepare, offering a smooth consistency when mixed with warm water. The ideal feeding temperature is between 38-41°C to ensure safe and effective nutrition. The product also includes a general mixing ratio of 1 part powder to 2–2.5 parts water, with adjustments made for younger chicks, who require a thinner mix. As chicks grow, you can gradually thicken the formula to suit their developing digestive needs.

The example feeding schedule varies by species, ensuring that you can tailor the amount and frequency of feeds to your chick's specific needs. Whether you're raising a Cockatiel, Green-cheeked Conure, Cockatoo, or African Grey, the schedule provides precise guidance on how to support their growth and weaning process.

For best results, store NestCare in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and moisture. Ensure the bag is resealed tightly after each use to maintain freshness, and use within 6–8 weeks of opening. The formula has a shelf life of 12 months from the date of production, so you can be confident in its quality and freshness when you need it most.
