Millet is used in the diet of all birds: straight beaks and hooked beaks. In clusters, it's a delicacy they love.
Millet in clusters has a good protein and carbohydrate content and it also contains a large number of amino acids. Ideal to distract your birds and thus avoid pecking (pulling feathers).
We advised to give red millet for exotic birds. It is richer in protein than yellow millet.
Clover stimulates the immune system and slows down cellular ageing through its excellent antioxidant properties. Rich in vitamins B, C, E and provitamin A.
The sunflower seed contains nearly 40% lipids, but also proteins, carbohydrates, and vitamins B and E. A sunflower seed contains approximately 600 kilocalories per 100 g.
It meets the needs of a wide variety of birds throughout the year, including the smallest among them.
Sunflower seeds are a real treat for our birds who love them!
High-quality seeds with a high fat content.
- With a high content of vitamin E, B9, B5, B6, B1, B2, B3, and vitamin K.
- It has antioxidant properties.
- Excellent energy contribution.
- Rich in calcium, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, proteins, zinc, thiamine, pectin (cleanses the body).
Foniopaddy Seed is a natural grass seed grown on our plantations in Uganda. Scientific research has shown that Foniopaddy has a beneficial effect on coccidiosis.
Flaxseed is rich in omega 3, which is essential for the cardiovascular system.
Buckwheat is a nutritious seed often included in the diet of cage and aviary birds.
- Appearance: Buckwheat is a triangular seed, light brown to greyish in colour, with a slightly rough shell.
Benefits for Birds:
- Balanced Nutrition: Buckwheat offers a combination of proteins, carbohydrates, and fibres, contributing to a balanced diet.
- Energy: The complex carbohydrates provide a sustainable source of energy for the birds' daily activities.
- Digestive System: The fibres promote good digestion and a healthy intestinal regulation.
- Proteins: The proteins in buckwheat support growth, reproduction, and the maintenance of muscle mass in birds.
Hemp seeds are very nutritious and contain more essential fatty acids (EFAs) than any other source, and are second only to soybeans in their richness in highly digestible proteins of high biological value. They are particularly recommended during breeding periods to stimulate the reproductive instinct of birds.
The wild rose is a wild rose bush whose rose hips are consumed in autumn and are very rich in vitamin C.
Chia is a sage. It is an annual plant that can grow up to 1 m tall and whose scientific name is Salvia hispanica.
The composition of chia seeds is closely related to that of other mucilaginous seeds such as flaxseed and psyllium. Unlike flaxseed, however, chia does not present anti-nutritional factors, factors that limit the use of flaxseed without prior heat treatment. Anti-nutritional factors are cyanogenic glucosides or linatins, inhibitors of vitamin B6 that prevent its action. Chia also has a much more pleasant taste than flaxseed and is more likely to be eaten by birds.
Clover stimulates the immune system and slows down cellular ageing through its excellent antioxidant properties. Rich in vitamins B, C, E and provitamin A.
Hemp seeds are highly nutritious and contain more essential fatty acids (EFAs) than any other source and are in second place, after soya, for their richness in highly digestible proteins, of high biological value. They are particularly recommended during the breeding seasons in order to stimulate the reproductive instinct of birds.
Dari, also known as sorghum or millet, is a variety of grain that is related to millet varieties. Dari is the size of a hemp seed. The grain originates from the warm regions of Australia, Asia, Africa, and South America. There are three varieties: white dari, yellow dari, and reddish-brown dari. It is noteworthy that more value is attributed to light dari than to reddish-brown dari. Regarding nutritional value, there is not the slightest difference. Furthermore, reddish-brown dari is well appreciated by lovebirds. Dari can be compared to wheat in terms of starch content. The seed has a favourable composition of amino acids. The protein present in dari has a particularly high leucine content.
