Avi Plus Complete Diet Breeder 1kg

Complete Pelleted Nutrition for Breeding Birds

Avi Plus Complete Diet Breeder 1kg is specially formulated for parrots and parakeets during breeding and chick rearing, when nutritional requirements can increase considerably.

Producing eggs, maintaining breeding condition and feeding rapidly growing chicks all demand additional energy and nutrients from parent birds. Avi Plus Complete Diet Breeder provides a fully balanced pelleted ration with increased protein and fat, plus important vitamins, minerals and trace elements to support birds through this demanding stage.

The pelleted format also helps reduce selective feeding. With loose seed mixtures, birds may choose favourite ingredients and leave others behind. With a complete pellet, the nutritional components are incorporated into each serving, helping provide more consistent everyday nutrition.

Developed for the Breeding Season

Normal maintenance nutrition may not be sufficient when birds enter an active breeding cycle.

Avi Plus Complete Diet Breeder 1kg is designed to provide the additional nutritional density required during breeding and when parents are feeding chicks. Protein provides amino acids needed for growth and tissue development, while dietary fat supplies concentrated energy.

Avi Plus also includes vitamins, minerals and trace elements to provide a nutritionally balanced ration rather than simply increasing the amount of high-fat seed offered.

Contains Animal Protein

Avi Products previously announced an update to its Complete Diet Breeder pellets to include animal proteins, explaining that this was intended to more closely reflect the increased insect feeding seen in many birds during breeding.

This additional protein source complements the formulation’s role as a breeder ration and helps provide the amino acids required during a period of increased nutritional demand.

A Complete Diet, Not Just a Supplement

One of the main advantages of Avi Plus Complete Diet Breeder 1kg is that it is formulated as a complete diet.

Avi Plus feeding guidance states that its complete feeds are fully balanced and that additional calcium, vitamins or similar supplements should not routinely be added unless specifically directed. It also recommends using a complete diet as the main food source, with treats and seeds limited and offered separately.

Product guidance for Complete Diet Breeder specifically states that no additional seed is necessary and recommends not mixing the pellets with seeds or other foods, apart from suitable fresh fruit and vegetables.

Suitable For

Avi Plus Complete Diet Breeder 1kg is suitable for breeding members of the parrot family. Retail product guidance lists it for birds such as:

• Budgies
• Cockatiels
• Lovebirds
• Ringnecks
• African Greys
• Amazons
• Cockatoos
• Macaws
• Other suitable parrots and parakeets

The manufacturer notes that breeder pellets are appropriate for parrot species generally, although individual species can have specialised nutritional requirements that should still be considered.

Feeding Guidelines

Feed Avi Plus Complete Diet Breeder 1kg as the main complete food during the breeding season and while parent birds are rearing chicks.

Birds should have sufficient food available throughout the day. Avi Plus recommends feeding enough that approximately 5% remains after feeding, helping ensure birds have received sufficient food even when energy requirements suddenly increase.

The amount consumed will vary according to:

• Species and body size
• Activity level
• Environmental temperature
• Breeding stage
• Number and age of chicks being fed
• Individual body condition

Check birds regularly and adjust the amount offered according to body condition and consumption.

Always provide unlimited clean, fresh drinking water.

When Chicks Hatch

Food consumption can increase dramatically once parent birds begin feeding young.

Avi Plus specifically advises that additional food and nutrients are required during breeding and when parents rear their own chicks. Egg Food Breeder may also be incorporated according to the Avi Plus breeding programme.

Ensure food is always readily available and monitor breeding pairs closely so that they do not run out while feeding growing chicks.

Storage

Store Avi Plus Complete Diet Breeder 1kg in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and moisture.

Keep the bag securely closed after opening or transfer the pellets to a clean, dry airtight container. Protect the food from insects and rodents.

Do not feed pellets that have become damp, mouldy, contaminated or developed an unusual smell.
