Directions for use
- It is designed to constitute 100% of the parrot's diet in non-reproductive periods. However, if fresh fruit and vegetables are provided daily to lend variety to the diet, we recommend that Psittacus should constitute no less than 70-80% of the total intake. During the breeding season, parrots should always have access to our Psittacus Eggfood and Calcium Grit Fine. No vitamin or mineral supplements should be given to parrots whose basic principal food is Psittacus. It is appropriate to renew food and water daily. Store in a cool, dry place after opening (while refrigeration is not advised, freezing is possible if it is hermetically sealed).
Daily intake
-
The recommended daily intake of the Psittacus Minor Formula is between 10% and 18% of your parrot's body weight, which can vary depending on both the species and environmental temperature. Be sure to monitor your parrot's intake and adjust as necessary to ensure their optimal health and wellbeing.
By incorporating the Psittacus Minor Formula into your parrot's feeding routine, you are ensuring that they are not just fed but nourished. Its composition reflects the latest avian nutritional science, providing peace of mind that your pet is receiving a diet that supports their health, vitality, and feather condition. Store the food in a cool, dry place, and once opened, keep it in a sealed container to maintain its freshness.
