It is indicated for hand rearing of frugivorous columbiform species.
It is a hand-feeding formula, formulated to be fed during the first days of life.
It should be prepared with lukewarm water (35-38 ºC, 95-100.4 ºF) in sufficient quantity to obtain a creamy texture (approximately 20-25% concentration).
The fast growth of the chicks makes it difficult to determine the optimal amounts to feed. The speed of food transit in each individual is what finally determines the maximum amount to feed. The large capacity of the crop of the columbiformes gives rise to a certain risk of overfeeding the chicks, which should be avoided.
It is important that the crop is completely empty in the morning, before the first feeding.
