Psittacus General Recovery Formula

Psittacus General Recovery is a complete nutritional support formula designed for sick, injured, or convalescing birds. It delivers easily assimilated nutrients during the recovery process, making it a practical tool for keepers and avian carers managing birds that need additional dietary support. Available in two sizes to suit different needs, from short-term single-bird recovery to ongoing use in larger collections or facilities.

What It's For

This formula is specifically intended as a support food during illness or injury recovery — not as a long-term staple diet. Its nutrient profile is built around easy assimilation, helping birds receive essential nutrition when their normal feeding behaviour or digestive function may be compromised. Due to its high sugar content, it should not be used in birds presenting with crop candidiasis.

Nutritional Profile

• Crude protein: 35.0%
• Crude oils and fats: 19.0%
• Complete food formulation for recovery-phase nutritional support

Preparation

Mix the formula into warm water and combine thoroughly using a stainless steel egg beater, targeting a solids concentration of approximately 25%. Each batch should be prepared fresh immediately before feeding — any unused formula must be discarded after each feeding session to maintain hygiene and safety.

Choosing the Right Size

Psittacus General Recovery is available in two sizes. The smaller option suits short-term recovery situations or keepers treating a single bird, while the larger size is better suited to those managing multiple birds or expecting extended use. Select your preferred size from the options above.
