What is the difference between the Professional Maintenance and Breeder Formula?
The Maintenance Formula is intended to provide the daily maintenance nutritional needs for a healthy bird. The Breeder Formula is provided when the parents are sitting on eggs and preparing to feed babies. This formula provides extra protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals for this particular time. The Breeder Formula may be provided to birds that are continuously breeding; however, the Maintenance Formula should be provided during the rest periods. The Maintenance Formula provides adequate nutrition for sporadic breeding. For birds being fed 50% fruits and vegetables, the Breeder Formula should be provided.
