Versele Laga Exotic Fruit Mix 600g

Versele Laga Exotic Fruit Mix 600g is a fruit-rich parrot food and treat that combines tropical fruits with grains and seeds, designed to supply the essential nutrients birds need. It suits South African parrot keepers, breeders and exhibitors who want to support their birds' health, breeding and performance at shows and competitions.

Key Benefits

• A fruity delicacy parrots love: packed with many fruits, including papaya, pineapple and apricot, plus a rich mix of grains and seeds.
• Essential nutrition: provides nutrients that help birds maintain good health, breed well and perform excellently at shows and competitions.
• Flexible feeding: give it as feed, as a reward, or alongside a Versele-Laga seed mixture.
• Backed by Versele-Laga expertise: the brand's vets and nutritionists developed its premium seed mix approach to address common nutritional gaps in a bird's daily diet.

Why Nutrition Matters

A bird's daily feed can lack certain vitamins, amino acids and minerals, and these deficiencies can often lead to poor breeding results and disease. Versele-Laga's Prestige Premium seed mixtures are built to tackle this, containing the extra nutritional elements a bird needs to stay in condition, breed well and perform excellently on the show bench.

• VAM pellets: Versele-Laga's vets and nutritionists developed a seed mix enriched with VAM pellets. These extruded pellets are very rich in Vitamins, Amino acids and Minerals (hence "VAM").
• Florastimul: the VAM pellets also contain fructo-oligosaccharides (Florastimul).
• High protein and energy: VAM pellets have a high protein and energy content.
• Balanced by design: every balanced Prestige Premium seed mix is made by adding VAM pellets to an adapted seed mix.
• Oyster shells and sea minerals: Prestige Premium mixtures are also enriched with oyster shells and sea minerals, ensuring the calcium essential for health is sufficiently present and that the all-important calcium/phosphorus balance is correct.
