Description
Tropican Hand-Feeding Formula provides proper daily nutrition for baby parrots up to fledgling, which is a critical age of a parrot’s life. Finely ground up extruded formula that is easy to mix, blends in seamlessly with hot water to create a smooth and consistent clump-free mash. This makes preparation quick and easy, improves feeding and enhances digestion. It’s an excellent peanut-derived source of fat and protein as well as a source of 8 essential grains that complement amino acid profiles; all critical to the proper growth and well-being of parrot chicks.

Feeding Instructions:
Make fresh batch or formula for each feeding. Always use clean utensils and accurate measures. Mix hot water with correct volume of Tropican Hand-Feeding Formula. The final temperature should be slightly above body temperature (38°C-100°F), and not exceed 40.5°C (105°F) when fed to chicks. To keep your pet bird healthy, water cups should be cleaned daily.
 
Storage Instructions:
For maximum freshness, once opened, store the sealed bag in a sealed container in a cool, dry place. Freezing is the best way to store the formula for prolonged periods. Our safe and effective CO2 treatment and air barrier bags ensure insect control and freshness.
