Psittacus Mini Hand Rearing Formula - for Conures, Galahs, Rosellas, Cockatiels, Ring-necked Parakeets and Alexandrine Parakeets. 

Use

This product is intended for hand-rearing psittacine chicks from the moment that the feathers begin to emerge. It is particularly suitable for small-sized seed-eating species such as Cockatiels, Galahs, Sun Conures, Rosellas, Ring-necked parakeets and Alexandrines (Nymphicus, Eolophus, Aratinga, Platycercus, etc.). 

Directions for use

It is a continuation hand feeding formula. For example, in Cockatiels it is used from 2nd week of life when the feathers begin to emerge. It is advisable to use a first-age formula for younger birds.

Mix with lukewarm water to a concentration of 20-25% (similar texture of a shaken yogurt). Store in a cool dry place after opening (while refrigeration is not advised, freezing is possible if it is hermetically sealed).

Daily intake
