Vetafarm Nutriblend Breeder Vetafarm Shop Online

Leading up to and during breeding season, birds require extra nutrition to maximise breeding success. Fulfilling nutritional needs during breeding season protects your hen from egg binding and supports membrane development, shell formation, and chick development.

Nutriblend Breeder contains extra protein and amino acids, plus all of the vitamins and minerals needed to support reproduction and meet the high nutritional demands of egg production and chick raising.

Feeding Guide

Nutriblend Breeder Pellets should be fed as your bird’s primary diet (80% of daily feed consumed).
The remaining 20% of the diet should be made up of healthy fruit and vegetables (15%) and a small amount of treat foods such as nuts and seeds (5%) to provide variety and enrichment.

Feeding should begin approximately 6 weeks before breeding season and continued until chicks fledge.
Chicks raised by parents being fed Nutriblend Breeder Pellets can be weaned directly onto regular Nutriblend Pellets.

Daily Pellet Recommendations:

Vetafarm recommends that parrots are fed a minimum of 10% of their bodyweight in pellets per day, for example:

• 90g Cockatiel (or similar): provide a minimum 9g pellets per day.
• 100g Ringneck (or similar): provide a minimum 10g pellets per day.
• 250g Alexandrine (or similar): provide a minimum of 25g pellets per day.
