Product Description
As parrots age, their nutritional requirements change, and Lafeber's Nutri-Berries Senior addresses these evolving needs with precision. Each berry is carefully crafted to provide 100% complete nutrition while maintaining the taste and texture that birds love. The unique berry shape encourages birds to hold, manipulate, and work for their food, promoting natural foraging instincts that are essential for psychological well-being.
This senior formula features easily digestible ingredients that are gentle on mature digestive systems while still providing the energy and nutrients active senior parrots require. The wholesome blend of hulled safflower, cracked corn, and other premium ingredients ensures your feathered companion receives optimal nutrition at every meal.
Key Ingredients
Cracked corn, hulled white proso millet, red millet, hulled canary grass seed, hulled safflower, dates, corn syrup, glycerin, egg, and natural flavors. Fortified with essential vitamins and minerals including Vitamin A, D3, E, and B-complex vitamins, plus calcium, phosphorus, and other trace minerals.
Feeding Directions
Offer 1-2 Nutri-Berries per day for small to medium parrots, or 2-3 berries for larger species. Adjust portions based on your bird's size, activity level, and body condition. Always provide fresh water alongside food. Store in a cool, dry place and reseal package after each use to maintain freshness.
Supplement Advisor's Note
Nutri-Berries Senior represents an excellent transition food for aging parrots, combining complete nutrition with behavioral enrichment. The berry format naturally encourages longer feeding times and mental stimulation, which can be particularly beneficial for senior birds who may be less active. Monitor your bird's weight and adjust portions accordingly, as senior parrots may have changing metabolic needs.
Is this food suitable for all parrot species?
Nutri-Berries Senior is formulated for medium to large parrots including African Greys, Amazons, Cockatoos, and Macaws. For smaller species like cockatiels or budgies, consider breaking the berries into smaller pieces.
How does this differ from regular Nutri-Berries?
The Senior formula is specifically adjusted for aging birds with modified protein and fat levels, plus enhanced antioxidants to support senior health needs and easier-to-digest ingredients.
Can I mix this with other foods?
Yes, Nutri-Berries can be offered alongside fresh fruits, vegetables, and other healthy treats. However, they should make up the majority of your bird's diet for complete nutrition.
How long will this package last?
For most medium-sized parrots eating 1-2 berries daily, a 284g package typically lasts 2-3 weeks, depending on your bird's size and appetite.
What if my bird is a picky eater?
The familiar seed and grain textures in Nutri-Berries often appeal to birds transitioning from seed diets. Try offering berries at different times of day or breaking them into smaller pieces initially.
