Formulated by veterinarians and made with fresh Australian ingredients, Vetafarm’s Forest Fusion Lorikeet diet has been developed with NO artificial colours, NO refined sugars and NO by-products. Instead our vets and nutritionists used wholesome foods that include naturally low GI carbohydrates along with real, delicious dates, bee pollen and blueberry extract, achieving a natural sweetness and amazing taste for lorikeets.

Recommended for: Australian and exotic Loris/Lorikeets

Key features: NO artificial colours, NO refined sugars and NO by-products. Made with real, delicious dates, bee pollen and blueberry extract, achieving a natural sweetness and amazing taste for lorikeets.

Directions:

Make freely available as your birds primary diet. Forest Fusion Lorikeet may be fed dry, direct out of the packet or as a wet mix by adding a small amount of water.

Wet Mix: A wet mix can be achieved by adding warm water to the powder and mixing thoroughly with a fork. You can mix to any consistency you desire but Vetafarm recommends a mix of 1 heaped teaspoon of Forest Fusion Lorikeet with 10 teaspoons of hot water. Mix well with a fork and change every 24hrs.

Forest Fusion Lorikeet is designed as a complete diet when fed at 80% of the total diet.

Converting Lorikeets: We use the natural deliciousness of dates, bee pollen and blueberry to achieve an outstanding taste! However, as most commercial lorikeet diets contain large quantities of refined sugar, changing some birds from one of these diets may take a number of days.

NEOCARE follows nature by providing a form of "crop milk", essential for the well being of incubated babies and is a great help in those you pull from the nest to hand rear.

Pack Weight: 450g; 2.5kg; 10kg

Nutricore provides exceptional nutritional balance, supporting optimal growth, feather development and immune function for baby birds. 

Ideal formula from hatching to weaning. 

Contains 13 vitamins and mineral, 9 strains of good bacteria and 7 digestive enzymes.

Veterinary formulated for optimal growth and development.

DIRECTIONS:

Please note: The below directions are a guide only. If babies' crops are emptying faster than normal, add slightly more Nutricore formula to your mix. If babies' crops are emptying slowly, slightly more water can be added for a thinner consistency.

IMPORTANT NOTES
Always ensure food is fed to babies at a temperature of between 38-41°C.
Never reuse a premixed batch of formula from a previous feed. Mix Nutricore fresh every feed.
Always ensure feeding utensils are thoroughly cleaned and sterilised between feeds.
Always weigh your babies at the beginning of each day before their first feed to ensure they are gaining weight. 
Always mix well to achieve a uniform consistency, cool to feeding temperature (38-41°C) and feed fresh to babies.

NEONATE FEEDING RECOMMENDATION (HATCHING TO DAY 5) 
Feed a combination of Spark Liquid and Synbiotic solution only, for the first 24 hours or until your baby passes the meconium (first dropping). After the first dropping, mix 1 heaped teaspoon of Nutricore with 5 teaspoons of hot, pre-boiled water to make a very thin solution, then feed this solution for the next 24 hours. This solution can be gradually thickened over the following 3 days until the Standard feeding dilution is achieved as outlined below.

STANDARD FEEDING RECOMMENDATION (BABIES OVER 5 DAYS) 
Mix 1 heaped teaspoon of Nutricore Hand Rearing Formula with 3 teaspoons of hot, pre-boiled water. This consistency will be used from day 5 through to when the bird weans onto an adult diet.

TRANSITION FEEDING  
A Nutricore mix of very thin consistency should be fed to babies for at least the first 24 hours when transitioning from another brand of formula or when pulling babies older than 5 days from the nest for hand raising. This is to ensure babies remain hydrated and allows a period for adjustment to the new diet. The recommendation for this transition period is 1 heaped teaspoon of Nutricore with 5 teaspoons of hot, pre-boiled water. 

Wombaroo Granivore Rearing Mix is a balanced diet designed for rearing or supplementing grain-eating (granivorous) birds such as parrots, cockatoos, finches, doves, pigeons and quail.

Granivorous birds obtain most of their energy from the complex carbohydrates in seeds and grains. In the wild, they also consume fresh green seeds, fruits, plant material and some insects. In captivity, many birds are fed mainly dry seed diets, which can be low in essential nutrients. Wombaroo Granivore Rearing Mix provides the additional protein, fats, vitamins and minerals needed for optimum health, particularly during breeding and chick-rearing seasons.

Key Benefits:

• Ideal for Hand-Rearing: Elevated levels of protein, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, vitamins and minerals for improved chick health and growth.

• Supplement for Breeding Birds: Supports the increased nutritional demands of breeding adults.

• Nutritional Support: Can be used as an assist-feeding formula for young, sick or malnourished birds.

Directions for Use:
Feed as a complete diet for hand-rearing chicks, or as a supplement for adult birds.

• Hand Rearing: Mix the powder with warm water to form a slurry suitable for spoon or crop feeding. Follow the directions on the pack.

• Fruit & Veg Mix: Combine 1 scoop (7.5g) of powder with 20g of diced fruit or vegetables. Suitable for parrots, pigeons and frugivores.

• Egg Food: Mix 2 scoops (15g) of powder with 1 mashed hard-boiled egg. Ideal for canaries, finches and breeding birds.

Ingredients:
Processed cereals and vegetables, soy protein, whey protein, maltodextrin, glucose, lysine, methionine, mannan oligosaccharides, beta-glucans, vegetable oils, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, taurine, carotenoids, vitamins and minerals.

• Veterinary formulated to ensure optimum results for rehydration, replenishment and in recovery from stress and temperature extremes.
• Suitable for all animals.
• Easy to Administer - simply add to your pet's drinking water
• Fast and effective electrolyte & energy replenishment - starts restoring the balance as soon as it is consumed

Spark Liquid, formulated by veterinarians, is a fast and effective energy and electrolyte source to ensure optimum results for rehydration, replenishment and recovery.

An essential tool in times of extreme temperature, as a first aid supplement for sick, stressed or injured birds, and is also an invaluable tool for birds in transport or on show.

Why do we recommend Spark Liquid?

During times of heat stress (e.g. birds have their wings out, are mouth-breathing and are down on the ground) birds are undergoing changes in their body chemistry. Their blood pH is altering, their sodium and potassium levels are out of kilter and their fluid balance is incorrect. While we struggle to control the temperature, we must also help the birds return to normal as soon as possible – this is why we use electrolytes!

When we are talking about electrolytes - it is balance that is key. Not only do all body cells require electrolytes to function correctly, they require certain amounts of each type of electrolyte.

Along with the supplementation of electrolytes, Vetafarm Spark Liquid also includes vital carbohydrates that will greatly improve the recovery from stress, travelling, illness, and, of course, heat.

Key Features of Spark Liquid Concentrate:

Hydrates and Supports
During times of extreme temperature, transportation, showing, illness, and recovery.

Energy and Electrolytes
Balanced electrolytes and carbohydrates to boost energy levels for recovery.

Easy to Administer
Simply add to your bird’s drinking water.
