Vitamins for birds

 Vitamins are really important for pet birds . A bird living outdoor knows how to survive and eats every good stuff . What about our lil feathered friend ? Too picky .” I like blueberries, I hate spinach . I love spinach .. but I hate apples . “ 

We end up giving them what they like the most . Because we hate to see them starve. 

So here’s one question to you . If your kid loves chocolate and would demand to have it as breakfast, lunch and dinner .. would you blindly give it to him/ her ?  I understand you completely love your birdie . So, try hard to make them eat healthy. Vitamin deficiency can really hit them hard . It’s a much worse condition you could ever imagine . 

Meanwhile, just to make sure your birdie is getting every vitamins and minerals needed . You should consider giving them vitamins. It helps a bird during stressed conditions, to be strong from inside . So, a regular intake of vitamins is necessary. You could consult your Vet and decide on which vitamins . 

I am listing two suggested ones .
