Psittacus Mini Papilla is a specially formulated hand-rearing food designed for small granivorous psittacine birds such as Carolina parakeets, lovebirds, and budgerigars. This unique blend contains whole dehydrated eggs to provide essential nutrients and promote healthy growth.
Key Ingredients:
- Dehydrated whole egg for protein-rich nourishment.
- Papaya, aiding in digestive transit.
It is recommended to use this formula until the weaning stage is reached.
These small psittacines have varying gullet capacities and feeding habits depending on the species and developmental stage. For instance, lorikeets typically consume between 7 to 10 ml of papilla per 100g of body weight, while cockatiels can easily take up to 17 ml per 100g, especially during their fledging stage (particularly in the first and last feedings of the day).
Feeding Guidelines:- Ensure that the baby's gullet is completely empty before each feeding.
- Monitor the level of satiety expressed by the chick, adjusting feeding frequency and quantity as needed based on its capacity and demand for food.
