Rio Hand-feeding food for baby birds 400g

Ingredients: Cereals, vegetable derivatives, egg powder 6.5%, vegetable protein extracts, various sugars, yeast extract (ß-glucans 0.8%, mannan-oligosaccharides 0.8%), banana powder, minerals. Lysine - 1.2%; methionine - 0.58% choline chloride - 1400 mg. Use within 3 months of opening.

Preparation:
1. In a clean bowl, mix the powder with warm water at approximately 35-37 °C according to the age of the bird according to the feeding table. It is recommended to boil the water before use to ensure safety or use bottled water.
2. Mix until smooth, let stand for 1-2 minutes. Then mix again to avoid separation. Do not microwave! Microwaves can create hot spots in the mixture and lead to unintentional crop burns.
3. Test whether the food is at the correct temperature (35-37°C).
4. Feed the chick until the crop is appropriately round and full. Do not overfeed to avoid vomiting! The chick should be fed every 3-4 hours during the day, only after its crop is empty or almost empty.
5. The food mixture should be prepared fresh before each meal! The weight of each meal should correspond to 10-12% of the chick’s weight.
