Product Description

Please feel free to contact us for recommendations on when and how much to use of any vitamin or supplement we use or recommend. We primarily recommend this supplement for Canarys and Finches when they are molting , or birds diagnosed by an Avian Veterinarian as vitamin deficient. Other species of birds who are eating a diet like the one we recommend in our "Diet and Nutrition" articles on our Educational Articles page at this link: Diet and Nutrition - do NOT need any further supplementation.

Nekton Bio Feather Supplement: 35 Gram After years of research NEKTON-BIO was developed to meet certain problems in a bird's plumage and to ensure healthy feather growth in all types of birds. Feathers are largely protein in nature, which is why 18 free amino acids have been included in NEKTON-BIO to help a bird build the proteins needed. Of the amino acids, arginine, methionine and lysine are particularly vital in a supplement because most cage or aviary birds are fed on bird seed, which is poor in these amino acids. Vitamins A, E, and Biotin also have a positive effect on feather growth. Altogether 13 vitamins, 6 trace elements and calcium have been combined with the amino acids to create a special formula to support the organism during the moult and encourage the growth of smooth and glossy feathers. This is one of the only vitamin supplements we have been able to find that has sufficient Vitamin A ( 6660 I.U. per Gram) to benefit the average companion bird in need of artificial supplementation.

We recommend this supplement NOT be used as the manufacturer directs - which is to mix it with water - which not only dilutes or completely limits the vitamins effectiveness - but it also causes massive bacterial growth in the water. This is true of ALL vitamin supplements we know of that are mixed with water. We recommend punching a number of holes in the foil seal and then sprinkling a small amount (similarly to adding salt to your food) onto something your bird loves to eat! Moist foods are an especially good place to add the vitamin - just be sure to take any moist foods away from your bird within 2 hours or less.

Store in a dark, preferably refridgerated location.
