Its uniquely shaped particles maximize calcium absorption, supporting bone strength, egg production, and overall vitality. Trusted by bird owners and vets alike, this 85g jar blends seamlessly into any diet without flavor interference, ensuring your birds get the essential calcium they need to thrive. ## Description Zoo Med`s Avian Calcium is a pure calcium supplement for all species of birds. Zoo Med only uses precipitated calcium carbonate which is white in color and is essentially lead free. Pure calcium carbonate is white, not gray. Impurities in other sources of calcium carbonate (e.g. Oyster Shell Calcium) cause the supplement to appear gray. The Calcium carbonate particles in Avian Calcium have a unique shape, and an extremely high surface area per gram, resulting in increased calcium bioavailability. With Avian Calcium, you can take comfort in knowing that your birds are getting a highly bioavailable source of calcium carbonate that is free of harmful impurities. Calcium is essential for the formation and maintenance of strong bones, egg production, blood clotting and other vital life functions. As a general rule, calcium should make up one half to one percent of a bird's diet. Calcium should make up two precent of the diet of breeding hens which require additional calcium of egg shells. Review: Great choice for my birds. - 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 desertcart 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.

I just sprinkle a small amount over her food daily. If you do want an actual measuring thing, you can fine some nice stainless steel ones for a couple dollars here on Amazon. **Q: Is the calcium from animals or is this product vegan?** A: I have no idea. You would have to ask the mfg. I thought my AG parrot might need calcium as they are known for that. I haven’t noticed any diffeence and hopefully she is getting the calcium she needs. Thank **Q: Can this be baked in birdie bread? My African Grey is very picky and won’t eat it sprinkled on his regular food.** A: Yes, just dont over do it and dont burn. Great idea **Q: How much should I give my Cockatiel who has been laying infertile eggs, and does this replace the calcium block?** A: Hello! I ut about a quarter of a tespoon in with the seed and mix it up. Do this whenever you give your bird more food ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great choice for my birds. *by E***A on 13 March 2012* I had bought this Avian Calcium from Doctors Foster and Smith awhile back; they are a site I trust for good products and information.
