    Calcivet powder

    Posted by Rand Newman on 6th Nov 2023

    In my personal experience, the powder form of calcivet is more readily consumed on food than liquid calcivet when given as a supplement to a variety of raptors. It does not appear to taint the taste of the meat.

    My bird has taken to this and doesn’t appear to be plucking as much

    Essential

    Posted by Dean Gudgeon on 21st Apr 2020

    I have used this ( powered version which I prefer) consistently as directed before egg laying and drop to two days a week the rest of the year after babies have finished growing. I have never had any problems with poor egg quality, egg bound hens or splayed legs etc. I have also used a loading dose of calcivet on a blue and gold macaw which I rehomed with poor feather quality and withheld feather sheaths along with the normal DE3 and feast. I did this for a month before dropping to 2 days a week. When blood and disease testing failed to find a reason for the withheld sheaths despite the bird having previously been on a ‘good’ diet ( Harrison’s pellets) I asked the Bird care company and they recommended these steps to take. 18 months later the macaw is in beautiful condition. I would highly recommend this product.

    Good

    Add it to my Ringnecks veggie chop twice a week as he had no sources of calcium or D in his previous home. Only wish it came with a tiny spoon as trying to pinch the product is messy.
