Use
This product is intended for hand-rearing frugivorous psittacine chicks in the first neonatal phase (from hatching to a maximum age of 7-8 days, depending on the species). This is an exclusive high-concentration and highly digestible hand-feeding formula.
Directions for use
It is an extruded complete feed for the hand breeding of birds of the Psittacidae family. It is designed to constitute 100% of the parrot's diet. Especially recommended for professionals using artificial incubation. It promotes optimal chick growth rates similar to those achieved by the best breeding parrots. Mix with lukewarm water to the appropriate concentration. Store in a cool dry place after opening (while refrigeration is not advised, freezing is possible if it is hermetically sealed).
Daily intake
During the first day, increase the concentration with every feeding, from approximately 1% in the first feeding to 20% in the last. From 3rd day, the concentration must be 25%. Chicks should be fed with the appropriate daily amount, divided over many feedings (usually, a minimum of 7-8 feedings per day for the first days).
