It is made for hand rearing parrot chicks with marked frugivorous specialization during the 2nd phase of the early-age period (from the 5th- 8th day of life until the moment when feathers begin to emerge). From that moment, it is recommended to use a follow-on formula. We recommend that Frugivorous Psittacine Crop Milk be used in the first phase of the early-age stage. It is designed for a great variety of parrot species of the Lorina Subfamily and of the general Eclectus, Pyrrhura, Pionites... It can also be given to chicks that need a supplement to the diet they receive from their parents. It is also suitable for recovering malnourished chicks. It contains a high proportion of dehydrated whole egg. It also contains papaya, which favours the digestive transit. From the first week of life, chicks should eat up to 6 times a day (this varies according to the species). Crop capacity indicate the amount to be fed at each feeding bout. Approximately it is be-tween 7 and 10 ml of formula per 100 g of body weight. The number of feeding bouts decreases with age.
