Nature’s Nest Avian Wholegrain

Nature’s Nest Avian Wholegrain is a fully balanced bird food made for baby birds that are weaning off porridge, and it can be fed wet or dry. It is also a practical choice for parrot owners who want a nutritious base diet they can serve in different ways. It comes in a single 1 kg (2.2 lb) pack.

Key Benefits

• A fully balanced diet that carries the high-quality nutrition the Nature’s Nest range is known for
• Suits baby birds weaning off porridge

• Can be prepared as a crumbly wet mix for parrots that prefer moist food
• Can be mixed with a little yoghurt for a breakfast-cereal-style meal
• Includes a broad vitamin, trace element and macro element profile alongside wholesome ingredients such as maize, barley, dried vegetables and blanched giant peanuts

How to Use

• Serve it dry straight from the pack, or moisten it before feeding.
• For parrots that prefer wet food, add water until the mix turns crumbly.
• For a breakfast-cereal-style treat, stir in a little yoghurt.
• Do not leave wet food in the bowl for longer than 12 hours, especially in summer. South African heat can spoil moist food quickly, so remove leftovers promptly.
