Bird Health Supplements

Bird Supplements

Boost your bird's health

Even with a good diet, birds may need a little extra support. Supplements can help with feather quality, bone strength, immune support, and overall vitality.

Common nutrient gaps

Many seed diets lack calcium, iodine, or key vitamins. Supplementing helps avoid health issues like weak bones, poor feathering, or low energy—especially in breeding or moulting birds.

Types of supplements

Supplements come as powders, liquids, or drops you can add to food or water. Options include multivitamins, calcium boosters, and immune tonics for general wellbeing.

When to use them

Supplements are especially helpful during stress, illness recovery, breeding, or seasonal moults. They can also benefit older birds or those with limited diets.

Safe daily use

Stick to recommended doses and avoid mixing multiple supplements unless advised by a vet. It's always best to tailor supplementation to your bird's individual needs.
