Before I switched my birds to a pelleted diet from seeds, I added vitamin and mineral supplements. Do I need these now?
Because seeds are lacking in many essential vitamins and minerals birds need, bird owners commonly try to provide vitamins and minerals for their birds in the form of supplements or by feeding fortified seeds. Birds have dry tongues and often the vitamins and minerals are not swallowed, or the supplements are discarded along with the hulls of the seeds. You’re never sure just how much of the vitamin and mineral supplements your bird is actually eating. However, ZuPreem Avian Diets are nutritionally balanced extruded diets and offer your bird everything he needs for a long and healthy life. ZuPreem diets have balanced vitamins, minerals, fat, carbohydrates and protein in every bite. You don’t need to add supplements when feeding ZuPreem. As a matter of fact, you really should not add supplements, because your bird may actually consume too much of one vitamin or mineral, and there’s no way to know how much he’s getting. When selecting a pelleted diet, be sure to compare. Not all pelleted
