{"product_id":"wildiets-medium-frugivore-maintenance","title":"WilDiets Medium Frugivore Maintenance Diet","description":"\u003cp\u003eWilDiets Medium Frugivore Maintenance is a complete maintenance diet formulated specifically for iron-sensitive, medium-sized frugivorous softbills — including toucans, aracaris, turacos, mynahs, and fruit-eating pigeons. Available in two bag sizes to suit keepers managing a single bird or a larger collection, this is a diet built around the biological reality of iron-sensitive species, not a generic softbill mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Feed It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis diet is designed to be offered alongside fresh sweet fruit, with the WilDiets Medium Frugivore Maintenance making up approximately 70% of the total ration. Used this way, it provides a nutritionally complete diet during non-reproductive periods. No vitamin or mineral supplementation is needed or recommended when feeding this diet as directed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIron Sensitivity — Why It Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany frugivorous softbills are highly susceptible to iron storage disease, a serious and often fatal condition in captive birds fed inappropriate diets. WilDiets Medium Frugivore Maintenance is specifically formulated with a controlled iron level suited to these sensitive species. It should not be fed to species without iron sensitivity, as the iron content may be insufficient for their requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNutritional Composition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe diet delivers a full complement of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and amino acids tailored to the health of medium frugivores outside of the breeding season.
