Feather picking is characterised by the loss or damage of feathers on the body and neck with normal feathers on the head. Feather picking can be the result of many underlying causes including nutritional deficiencies, parasites (mites and lice), bacterial, fungal or viral infections, psychogenic problems such as boredom, stress, sexual frustration etc. The underlying causes must be addressed to eliminate the problem. For example: remove environmental stress and in the case of boredom provide toys and entertainment when the bird is alone (radio or television). If problem persists consult an avian veterinarian.
This bird feather plucking combo is perfect for preventing feather plucking in birds.
Vetafarm B-Calm Parrot Pellets 350g is a balanced, veterinary nutritional formula specifically designed for anxiety-prone birds. The pellets may assist in the management of stress and anxiety in companion parrots. The formula is non-drowsy and non-sedative, making it great for long term and everyday use.
B-Calm contains L-tryptophan, thiamine and turmeric which are all natural ingredients which help to manage anxiety. L-tryptophan is a natural precursor for the synthesis of serotonin in the brain, which helps to stabilise feelings of happiness and wellbeing. Thiamine is an essential vitamin not made in the body so it must be absorbed from food. It helps the metabolism of energy and the overall functioning of the nervous system. Turmeric contains curcumin which is anti-inflammatory and is a stimulator for the release of serotonin and dopamine which help to stabilise mood.
B-Calm pellets should be fed as 80% of a parrot’s diet, with the rest being fruit and vegetables. Parrots require a minimum of 10% of their total bodyweight in pellets per day.
Stress and anxiety in birds can be caused by a number of environmental factors and can cause symptoms such as changes in vocalisation, aggression, head swinging, decreased appetite, hiding, shaking, pacing and feather destruction. It is important to manage any triggers which may be causing stress in addition to feeding Vetafarm B-Calm Parrot Pellets.
