Proudly Australian made with local produce and over 30 years of avian nutritional expertise – Maintenance Diet is both delicious and good for your bird.

Maintenance Diet is veterinary formulated to fulfill all of your bird's core nutritional requirements in an easy to feed formula. This parrot food is recommended as a balanced diet to maintain healthy weight without excess fat deposition. These pellets are extrusion-cooked for optimum digestibility, palatability, and food safety. Among parrot diets, Vetafarm's Maintenance Diet is one of the best - if not THE best!

Directions

Maintenance Diet should be fed as your bird’s primary diet (80% of daily feed consumed). The remaining 20% of the diet should comprise healthy fruit and vegetables (15%) and a small amount of treat foods such as nuts and seeds (5%), to provide variety and enrichment in their diet. Fresh water should be available at all times.

Daily Pellet Recommendation:

Vetafarm recommends that parrots are fed a minimum of 10% of their bodyweight in pellets per day, for example:

90g Cockatiel (or similar): provide a minimum 9g of Maintenance Diet per day.

150g Sun conure (or similar): provide a minimum of 15g of Maintenance Diet per day.

300g Galah (or similar): provide a minimum of 30g of Maintenance Diet per day.

These feeding recommendations should be used as a guide only. Be sure to check with your veterinarian for more specific information if your bird has special dietary needs due to a health condition.
