Versele Laga Exotic Nut Mix 750g

Versele Laga Exotic Nut Mix 750g is a premium parrot seed and nut mixture enriched with vitamins, amino acids and minerals to support your bird's health, breeding and performance. It combines whole almonds, walnuts and pecans with a rich blend of grains and seeds. It suits parrot keepers across South Africa who want one mix that works as everyday food, a reward or a topper for their usual seed.

Versele-Laga developed its Prestige Premium seed mixtures to supply the extra nutritional elements a bird needs to stay in condition, breed well and perform at its best on the show bench and in competition. A daily diet that falls short on certain vitamins, amino acids or minerals can often lead to poor breeding results and disease. To address this, the vets and nutritionists at Versele-Laga created a seed mix enriched with VAM pellets.

Key Benefits

• Whole exotic nuts: a generous mix of whole nuts, including almond, walnut and pecan, makes this a delicacy parrots really enjoy.
• Rich grain and seed base: a varied mix of grains and seeds keeps feeding interesting alongside the nuts.
• VAM pellets for added nutrition: these extruded pellets are very rich in Vitamins, Amino acids and Minerals (VAM), adding nutrients that a plain seed mix may lack.
• Fructo-oligosaccharides (Florastimul): the VAM pellets also contain FOS, sold under the Florastimul name.
• High protein and energy: the pellets have a high protein and energy content, which is useful for active, breeding and show birds.
• Oyster shells and sea minerals: these help make sure enough calcium is present for good health and that the important calcium/phosphorus balance is correct.
• Developed by experts: Versele-Laga's own vets and nutritionists formulated the VAM pellet concept.
• Balanced Prestige Premium approach: every balanced Prestige Premium seed mix is made by adding VAM pellets to an adapted seed mix.

Exotic Nut Mix can be used in three ways, depending on your parrot's routine:

• As a reward: hand out individual nuts as a treat or during training and bonding sessions.
• With a Versele-Laga seed mixture: mix it into your parrot's usual Versele-Laga seed for added variety and interest.
