USES

Special Needs: Suitable for birds that are molting, overweight, underweight, very active, housed in cold climates, or affected by liver or kidney disease.

Converting to Harrison’s

Before changing your bird’s diet, consult with an avian veterinarian. Begin transitioning to Harrison’s by mixing it with your bird’s present food. Gradually increase the amount of Harrison’s each week while reducing the previous food over a four-week period. If your bird is hesitant, scatter Harrison’s on a piece of white paper or a mirror to encourage feeding. Increase Harrison’s by 25% each week and decrease the old food by the same amount. Once your bird adjusts, take off the previous food entirely. Additional conversion materials are available to assist in this process.

Storage and Shelf Life

To preserve the freshness of Harrison’s High Potency Formula: Seal the bag tightly, removing any air to keep it fresh. If the ziplock seal is damaged, fold the top of the bag over and clip it closed. Store the food in the original packaging to preserve quality. Use within eight weeks after opening. Refrigerating or freezing after opening helps extend freshness. Allow the food to return to room temperature before serving. Always purchase Harrison’s products in their original packaging to ensure consistent quality.

Additional concerns

Balanced Diet for Your Bird

For a well-balanced diet, feed your bird 75-80% Harrison’s Bird Foods. The remaining portion should consist of 15-20% organic, dark leafy greens or yellow vegetables and fruits such as sweet potatoes, carrots, pumpkin, winter squash, broccoli, spinach, parsley, mango, or papaya. The last 5% should include Omega-rich seeds and nuts like flax, chia, perilla, or JUMPSTART Omega. Only provide vitamins if specifically recommended by your avian veterinarian. Refrain from mixing other formulated diets with Harrison’s, as this could lessen the nutritional benefit of the food. Follow these guidelines to maintain your bird’s health and well-being.

Exercise for Your Bird

Exercise is vital for your bird’s health. Here’s how to keep your bird active: Free-flying: Allowing your bird to fly in a safe space offers optimal exercise. Spacious Enclosures: Ensure the enclosure is large enough to encourage flight and movement. Harnesses: Use a bird harness or leash while outdoors under supervision. Environmental Enrichment: Place ladders, swings, and other stimulating items inside the enclosure. Outdoor Time: Supervise your bird during outdoor time to ensure physical and mental stimulation. Regular exercise helps avoid health issues and supports overall well-being.

Sunlight for Your Bird

Sunlight is essential for birds, as it activates vitamin D for proper calcium absorption. Birds, such as African greys, require regular sunlight exposure to maintain healthy calcium levels. To provide adequate sunlight: Outdoor Exposure: Place your bird in its cage outdoors during sunny periods with a shaded area for retreat. Avoid Windows: Sunlight through windows is not beneficial, as glass blocks UV rays. UV Lamps: In areas with limited sunlight, use specialized UV lamps designed for birds to simulate natural sunlight. Proper sunlight exposure is key for healthy bone and feather development.
