Hagen Prime Parrot Vitamin, Mineral and Amino Acid Supplement for Seed Eating Birds, 1.1 oz

This isn’t cheap, but it covers so many nutritional needs for your bird that I will buy this despite the cost. This supplement seems to be all around good for the birds! I noticed my birds health improved when I used this supplement compared to any of the many other supplements I have used for my birds. It smells good too, where most stink, and the birds seem to like it and don’t turn up their noses when I use it. I don’t even use the full amount recommended, and I still see a change for the better in them, especially in the constitutionally weaker birds.

I have used this for over 20 years. It is amazing. It doesn't smell or taste horrible like other supplements, but smells and taste fruity. I tasted it myself and I can see why my birds like it. But, most important, it works. Through the years I have used it with sick birds and it helped them. I now use it to help maintain their health. Yes,, it is expensive, but it works and I highly recommend it.

My vet first recommended this 23 years ago. It smells and tastes like apricots. My parrots love it. I sprinkle it in their wet porridge and still spoon feed them to make sure they get it and it doesn't get wasted. They are very happy and healthy. Other bird vitamins don't smell or taste good. __ The manufacturer has changed packaging and it's now 320 g rather than 400 g. I usually buy small 6- grams which last me over 2 -3 months. They are out of stock everywhere. It is less expensive to buy the big container though. I hope they are just changing packaging and the smaller one is available soon.. Either way, I highly recommend it.

Loose powder smells nice. I mix well into the seed. The birds seem to like it. It is definitely better than the yuckey yellow vitamins that you add to water. I bought 2. I would definitely purchase again in the future.

He really has been going through a hard molt. I better get him some vitamins. I’ve also started feeding him some little bit of egg yolk every day with some tops of broccoli, cauliflower rice, and skinned peas.

This product is SO good for birds who stubbornly refuse anything but seed! The suggestion to put it in the water didn't work. The birds refused to drink any water on the days I put the supplement in for them. So now I put their seed into a jar, add the supplement, and shake. The seed is coated (very little is left in the jar) and the birds eat without any hesitation.

I have a parrot that insists on only eating the safflower seeds in her food. I sneak this in her fruit and her nightly black berry treat to supplement her nutrition.I notice that she eats her fruit more energetically if I sprinkle some on it. So, it must enhance the taste.Based on bird size, there is an ideal amount/dosage for each day. Once you know that you can break up that amount and add it to your birds food throughout the day.Use it on cut fruit so it is absorbed rather than it falling off dry food/seeds/nutriberries.

I bought these based on reviews after I noticed my 5 year old cockatiel was looking disheveled for a few days and I grew very concerned. I gave this to her in her drinking water as directed and within a couple of days she was a completely different bird. I also gave her the sour crop home remedy with ACV and water - please consult a vet before doing it - after the vitamins and that completely helped her recover as well. She is much better.
