Versele-Laga Nutribird A19 250g
Overview
Versele-Laga Nutribird A19 is a scientifically approved hand-rearing food for baby birds with a high energy requirement. It is designed for use from hatching until weaning and is especially suited to macaws, African greys, eclectus parrots and other baby birds that need a rich, dependable hand-feeding formula.
The recipe is built around a balanced approach to chick rearing, with support for digestion, growth and feather development. The formula includes Opti Digest, Opti Feather and Opti Growth to help make daily hand-feeding more straightforward during the early stages of development.
This is a hand-rearing formula for chicks and baby birds, not a complete adult maintenance food.
