Description
Vetafarm Parrot Maintenance Pellets are Vetafarm’s original vet-formulated complete diet for pet and aviary parrots. They’re made in Australia with no artificial colours, flavours or added sugars, and are designed to cover your bird’s core nutritional needs in one easy-to-feed pellet.
The balanced recipe includes essential vitamins, minerals, calcium and amino acids to support feather growth, muscle activity and digestion. It also helps keep birds at a healthy weight without excess fat. Extrusion cooking makes the pellets palatable and easy to digest, and they create less waste and mess than a seed diet.
