Description
A year-round maintenance formula that meets the nutritional requirements for healthy, non-breeding adult birds incl. pionus, amazons, eclectus, cockatoos, large macaws and other medium to large parrots that have been on High Potency for at least 6 months.
We recommend High Potency coarse for birds that are breeding, moulting and younger than 6 months, and for African Grey Parrots, Hyacinth Macaws, Palm Cockatoos and Golden Conures.
To optimize the content of essential fatty acids (omega 3 and omega 6), carotene and natural vitamin E, we recommend 11,34 g of Harrison bird food with Palmgloss. To do this, add 250 ml of Palmgloss to the freshly opened food bag. Mix the food and Palmgloss well until everything is evenly distributed.
After feeding, close the food bag tightly and store it in the refrigerator. The food should be consumed within 8 weeks.
Have you ever found crumbly or powdery bits of food in a bag of Dr. Harrison's High Potency or Adult Lifetime Coarse? Please don't throw it away. This isn't waste; it's just as high-quality food as the other kibble in the bag. This broken food is a natural part of the production process and is technically unavoidable.
Since parrots don't like to eat crumbly or powdery food in its natural form, Monika Janeczek from Avifood developed the following two recipes for baking bird bread. This allows the crumbs to be used in a palatable way.
Monika's bird bread is an ideal training or reward food. You can also offer it to your parrots as an additional protein source during molting or breeding season. At these times, your birds can benefit from the extra protein because new feathers are rich in protein, and egg-laying females or rapidly growing young birds require a significant amount of protein.
