How to hand-rear parrots
Formulated to hand-rear granivorous psittacine chicks during the first phase of the neonatal stage (from hatching to 5-9 days of age, depending on the species). Formulated to constitute 100% of the chick’s diet during this period. It is a highly concentrated and digestible formula especially recommended for breeders who incubate eggs artificially.
It allows chicks to obtain vigorous growth rates, similar to those obtained by the best breeding pairs. This vigour promotes health and minimizes the risk of contracting diseases.
It is advisable to prepare the formula with lukewarm water at a concentration of approximately 25 % solids. It is recommended to administer the formula with a soft feeding tube.
From the 5th-9th day of life it is recommended to switch progressively to the Granivorous Neonatal Hand Feeding (or the Mini Hand Feeding in the case of small psittacine birds).
