Description
Vetafarm Nectar Pellets are a complete, low-sugar diet for loris and lorikeets, formulated by avian veterinarians. Inspired by the natural diet of these birds, the pellets deliver balanced nutrition in an easy-to-feed form, without the mess of a liquid nectar diet.
Fed as your bird’s main food, Nectar Pellets support growth, breeding and healthy feather development, and help keep lorikeets in a healthy weight range. They also reduce mess and waste and help produce firmer, more uniform droppings, making them especially well suited to pet birds kept indoors.

Feeding Guide
Feed Nectar Pellets as about 80% of your bird’s daily diet, with around 15% fresh fruit and vegetables and 5% treats such as nectar mixes. Loris and lorikeets eat about 10–15% of their bodyweight in dry food each day. For example, a 120g lorikeet needs at least 10g of Nectar Pellets per day.

- Offer Nectar Pellets in a clean bowl as your bird’s main food.
