Zoo MedAvian Calcium, 3 Ounce Jar (85g)

Purchased this to help our hens struggling with feather mites and laying soft eggs. As long as we give about a quarter to half scoop daily to each, mixed with food, they have been laying solid eggs. Thank goodness! Definitely recommend!

My conure was having a calcium deficiency and was recommended to try this product in his food. My picky conure didn’t even notice it and will get him back to health. Recommended.

It’s great thank you

Was good no problems

My female finch was weak from too much egg laying, this helped her a lot. She got a lot of her strength back

Much bigger than I expected it to be, will last for a long time! So this is very cost efficient, especially if you have more than one bird. I bought this to help with egg binding for a female duck and it does the job. Before supplementing her diet with cacium powder, she had to go to the emergency room pretty much every single year during laying season because of egg binding. One time she almost died and the vet told us we were really lucky she did not. Those vet bills were about $1K each time!! This calcium powder has saved us hundreds if not thousands of dollars in vet bills. Highly recommended if you have any female birds that lay eggs. Even if they do not appear to have a problem, if doesn't hurt to give them this especially if they are laying eggs. This gives them the nutrition that they need.We would cut worms in half and dip them into this powder and give them to our duck daily when she is laying eggs, but you can also sprinkle directly into their food or water and mix. Or mix with another type of treat and feed to them.

I had bought this Avian Calcium from Doctors Foster and Smith awhile back; they are a site I trust for good products and information. I now go to that site only for specified selections, and instead come to Amazon for reasonable prices and better shipping options (unless you buy a certain amount from the other site, the shipping and some products can be costly). I have had my Cockatiel for 14 years and his feet had lost gripping power and sometimes he fell from his perch. My veterinarian said to find good food for bone strength, feed him more eggs and meat, as well as buy edible calcium powder for his bones. One powder I tried he could either taste or smell and refused to eat it, and some liquid options wet the food and make it go bad faster. I love this Zoo Med - Avian Calcium: I mix it into his food dish and he eats it like there is nothing there. You can sprinkle it on fresh food or millet as well, just don't over use it past the directions. After 4 months my bird began gripping stronger and does not fall from his perch anymore, I am truly happy with this product and hope it adds many years to my life long best friend.

As a calcium supplement, this is top notch in quality. It works and works well -- IF you can get your bird to actually consume it.That's a big if because the powder is so fine that it coats to the point where all the color and patterns on the food you mix it with are obliterated -- and hence the appeal of that same food. The happy colors of my birds' favourite zupreem pellets are turned snow white -- almost looking like powdered donuts except clearly not tasty. Matter of fact I cannot get my birds to eat at all if what's in the dish are foods coated by this powder. It literally gets onto everything and sticks to everything. It is very hard to dose and you have no clue how much of it you are adding when you use the included scoop.No supplement is effective if you cannot get your bird to consume it. If you go with this, LESS IS MORE. Add it to a very small amount of food and then add the coated food to a larger quantity so that your birds still get the taste and colors they need. Absolutely no sense starving your birds by using too much at once.
