Formula Plus (30g, 90g, 300g.)

Formula Plus is designed to be added to other companies' proprietary, "complete" hand rearing food products.  Formula Plus does not duplicate key nutrients such as vitamin A and D3. Although minimal, there is a risk of overdosing these vitamins so they are NOT included in Formula Plus. If you wish to have advice on using Formula Plus in "home made" rearing foods please contact The Birdcare Company.

Flourish herbal extracts: immune support, anti-coccidial, prebiotic (supporting beneficial bacteria)

Live yeast probiotics: removal of pathogens from the gut and immune support
Insoluble fibre: maximising digestive function and prebiotic
Maxima bio-available sulphur: for disease control and rapid feather growth

It also contains extra quantities of nutrients that are included in some, but not all, proprietary formulas

Limiting amino acids: for stress free production of new feathers; works in conjunction with Maxima
BioPlus probiotic/prebiotic blend: for excellent gut health and performance
Essentials multi-vitamins (except A & D): for energy and vitality
