Nutrievo starts development handrearing formula OptiBird

Sept 2010 – There are a lot of homemade diets for feeding chicks, but these need to be critically assessed as to their suitability. What is OK for a near-fledged cockatoo is not suitable for a week-old lorikeet. Baby cereals, by themselves, are not an adequate diet for any bird.

OptiBird will offer the advantages of being easy to prepare, and well balanced. If using a balanced commercial diet, there is no need to add any vitamins or minerals – in fact, this can be dangerous to the chick. Probiotics – harmless bacteria that colonise the gut and compete with harmful bacteria – will be added as useful ingredient. Furthermore we will incorporate the latest and most advanced additives.

Hand rearing parrots is a lot of hard work, and requires a huge amount of dedication. However, the results are well worth it. With our OptiBird hand rearing we will definitely convince any breeder worldwide that this is the no.1 product to grow the strongest and most beautiful parrots.

The planned launch date will be Dec. 2010 / Jan. 2011
