Kaytee exact High Fat Handfeeding Baby Bird Food

Developed especially for the needs of baby birds, Kaytee Exact High Fat Handfeeding Baby Bird Food is designed to nurture baby birds through the most critical stage of their lives. It contains 75% more fat than the original formula, to help give them a fast and healthy start. Probiotics are included to encourage a healthy population of intestinal microorganisms and it also contains digestive enzymes (amylase and protease) to ensure proper digestion of carbohydrates and proteins. These enzymes are very helpful in the newly hatched baby or in a bird experiencing digestive difficulties. The formula also contains DHA, an Omega-3 fatty acid for development of the heart, brain and visual functions. Made for all baby birds and older chicks that respond well to elevated fat levels such as African Greys, Macaws and Black Cockatoos. Made in USA.

IMPORTANT - DO NOT REUSE MIXED FORMULA!! Discard and mix fresh at each feeding.

For hatch to 2 days old - formula should be made in small quantities and thoroughly stirred before feeding. Separation at this concentration is expected and is not a problem at this early stage because primary requirements are for water and water soluble nutrients. After chick is two days old, the food concentration must be increased (see feeding chart).

Microwaving should be avoided. Microwaving can create "hot spots" in the formula and increase the likelihood of accidental crop burns. If required, limit microwaving (on high) to no more than 5 seconds per ½ cup of mixed formula at a time. Be sure to follow this with vigorous stirring before retesting the temperature and feeding. Cover large batches of formula while microwaving to avoid a moisture loss. STIR FORMULA THROUGHLY TO AVOID POTENTIAL OF BURNING THE CROP. Always test formula for proper temperature before feeding.

Baby birds should be fed on a routine schedule allowing the chick's crop to empty (or nearly empty) between feedings and to determine if bird is being fed the right amount. This prevents any food remaining in the crop too long and possibly spoiling. If the time between crop emptying suddenly increases and the crop appears to be slowing down, observe the chick closely.

Feed mixture with a clean, disinfected syringe, spoon, tube, or other comfortable method. A separate implement should be used for each baby to prevent spread of disease.
Dispense food along with the chick's feeding response (rhythmic bobbing motion). This is more natural and decreases the likelihood of formula being inhaled.
Feed until the chick's crop is nicely rounded or it refuses any more food, whichever comes first. Do not overfeed or regurgitation may occur. Generally, each meal should consist of a volume equivalent to 10-12% of the bird's body weight.

Clean and sanitize feeding equipment after use. Clean any spilled food from the chick and change bedding after each feeding. Good hygiene is critical for a baby bird's health.

Exact Hand Feeding Formulas are designed to be the only food for baby birds. Additions to the diet may include fruits and vegetables (such as strained baby foods) but should not exceed 20% of the total diet. No additional vitamin or mineral supplements should be added.

WEANING INSTRUCTIONS
To encourage the weaning process, exact Conversion™ diets should be offered when "exploration" begins. When the baby bird is fully feathered, offer exact Conversion diet or an adult daily diet of exact Natural® or exact Rainbow® in a clean food cup in addition to routine hand feeding. The baby bird will slowly begin to prefer these new forms of the food. Fresh water must be provided at all times. Prolonged use of hand feeding formula beyond the normal weaning age, or excessive feeding, may result in problems such as obesity. A chick will lose up to 10% of its body weight during weaning as it begins to eat on its own. Birds wean easily onto exact Conversion diets or exact adult daily diets because of compatible taste and ingredients.

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
After opening, use the food within 30 to 45 days. Reseal package and store in a cool, dry location. Refrigerate or freeze for extended storage.
