Cuttlefish Blister Card & Clip

Cuttlefish Blister Card & Clip from DARO is a natural cuttlefish bone that gives pet birds a rich source of calcium and a built-in beak trimmer in one simple cage accessory. It supports strong bones, healthy beaks and overall well-being, and comes with its own clip for easy fitting. It is suitable for birds of all sizes and breeds, making it a practical bird treat for any South African household with feathered companions.

Key Benefits

• Natural, rich source of calcium: Cuttlefish bone is naturally high in calcium, a mineral that birds rely on to build and keep strong, healthy bones.
• Helps prevent deficiencies: Regular access to calcium-rich cuttlefish bone helps your bird avoid shortfalls in this essential nutrient.
• Natural beak trimmer: The bone's slightly abrasive texture wears the beak down as your bird pecks and chews, helping to prevent overgrowth and keep the beak in good shape.
• Encourages natural behaviour: Chewing on cuttlefish is instinctive for birds. It gives them something to work at, provides mental stimulation and helps reduce boredom in the cage.
• Health and enjoyment together: The bone is a useful health aid that birds also enjoy using, so it adds to their daily routine.
• Always within reach: The included clip holds the bone securely in the cage, so your bird has constant access. Easy access encourages regular use, which brings consistent benefits.
• Long-lasting: Cuttlefish bone is durable, so a single piece provides lasting enrichment and nutritional value.
• Fresh and clean: The bone comes sealed in a blister card, which keeps it fresh and free from contaminants until you open it.

How to Use

• Take the cuttlefish bone and clip out of the blister card when you are ready to use them.
• Use the clip to attach the bone to the bars of your birdcage. The clip is designed to fit any birdcage.
• Choose a spot your bird can reach easily, such as beside a favourite perch, so it can peck and chew whenever it wants.
• Leave the bone in place so your bird has constant access to calcium and a surface for natural beak maintenance.

Suitable For

• Pet birds of all sizes and breeds.
• Bird keepers who want a simple, natural way to add calcium to their bird's diet.
• Owners looking to support healthy beak wear and prevent overgrowth.
