Psittacus Micro Maintenance Formula - for Budgies, Cockatiels, Lovebirds, Parrotlets and all small parakeets and neophemas.
Use
This product is intended for small parrot species such as Budgies, Cockatiels, Lovebirds, Parrotlets and all small parakeets and neophemas (including those of the genera Melopsittacus, Agapornis, Neophema, Nymphicus, etc.) Maintenance foods are formulated to feed pet birds and reproductive birds during non-reproductive periods. Their composition meets the nutritional requirements of birds at these times.
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 Micro 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 Micro. It is appropriate to renew 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
Birds consumption is around 10% of their body weight every day in the case of cockatiels, and up to 18% in the case of budgerigars and lovebirds.
