Psittacus High Protein

🐣 Product Overview

The Psittacus Hand Feeding Mini is a high-performance neonatal formula designed for "hand-rearing" species that require a balanced diet during their most vulnerable stage of life. This 5kg bulk pack is ideal for professional breeders or those caring for multiple clutches of small psittacines.

Target Species 🦜

This "Mini" variant is specifically formulated for small parrots, including:

• Cockatiels

• Lovebirds

• Budgerigars

• Neophemas

• Small Conures

✨ Key Features & Benefits

• Optimal Growth Support 📈: Contains a high concentration of high-quality proteins and amino acids necessary for rapid muscle and tissue development in growing chicks.

• Digestive Health 🧬: Formulated with probiotics and prebiotics to support healthy gut flora, ensuring better nutrient absorption and preventing "slow crop" issues.

• Rich in Fatty Acids 🥥: Includes crude oils and fats that promote healthy skin and the development of vibrant, glossy plumage.

• Smooth Texture 🥣: The powder is ultra-fine, allowing for a perfectly smooth consistency when mixed with water. This makes it easy to administer via syringe or crop needle without clogging.

• Natural Ingredients 🌿: Uses non-GMO ingredients and is free from artificial colorants to mimic the nutritional profile provided by parent birds in the wild.

🥄 Preparation & Feeding Guidelines

To ensure the safety and health of the chicks, follow these standard hand-feeding protocols:

1. Mixing Ratio: Mix the powder with lukewarm, bottled, or previously boiled water. The consistency should start more liquid for very young chicks and become thicker (like yogurt) as they age.

2. Temperature Control 🌡️: Always serve the formula at a temperature between 37°C and 39°C. Feeding formula that is too cold can lead to crop stasis, while formula that is too hot can cause crop burns.

3. Freshness First ✨: Only prepare enough for one feeding at a time. Discard any leftovers immediately to prevent bacterial growth.

4. Crop Monitoring: Ensure the crop is nearly empty before the next feeding to prevent fermentation of old food.
