Nutri-Meals
Product Description
Developed by Dr. T. Lafeber in collaboration with an avian nutritonist and an avian behaviorist, Nutri-Meals are a revolutionary way to feed medium to large-sized pet birds. Nutri-Meals come in sets of four to provide breakfast, lunch, dinner, and an evening snack. The unique bar shape fits easily in bird feet. Each bar contains
pellets, seeds, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals blended with either fruits, nuts, vegetables, or flax and canola seeds.
Recommended Use
Nutri-Meals may be fed for maintenance or dietary conversion. The rich texture and shape of a Nutri-Meal also makes it an excellent foraging treat.
Features and Benefits
- Natural ingredients with added vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.
- Nutritionally balanced including essential fatty acids.
- Naturally preserved with mixed tocopherols and citric acid.
- A different meal for each time of the day provides variety and enrichment.
Sizes
Nutri-Meals come in two sizes. Medium-sized parrots can eat Nutri-Meals for Parrots, and there is also Nutri-Meals for Macaws and Cockatoos.
Expiration Date
Look for the “Best Before” sticker on the back of the bag.
Feeding Directions
Although birds may be fed as many bars as they will eat without excessive waste, two bars per meal is a good starting point.
