We raise birds that are largely Australian grassland seed eaters. It can be difficult to get optimum nutrition into them to condition and trigger to breed. These diet shortfalls can also play out as dead in shell (DIS), feather plucking of young or mates, or in many cases, refusal to feed or nest abandonment. This product works to bridge the gap in nutrition if you are short on time to reliably soak or sprout their mixes, or have a distaste for fresh foods with the most nutrition.
