Nekton-Bio for Bird Feathering,white,75gm

I have used this product or similar off and on over 30 years. Works like a charm. Don't put to much on. I prefer to sprinkle it on things I add to the pellet diet that has moisture. Otherwise it just falls off.

I have a 1.5 year old Caique. After 6 months of owning her she started barbering her feathers around December/January. She was very uncomfortable obviously. I took her to an avian vet, after $500 they told me she was in molt and probably just didn't like her situation (itchy), gave me an anti-histamine to give her. My house has a whole home humidifier so I was like what the heck? I tried a lot of things, direct humidification, etc..Started giving her Nekton Bio in Feb. She was back to FULL plumage in April, no more barbering. Well, made the mistake of not starting this in December, same thing happened this year. I really really try with her diet but there is something that gives her a boost with this supplement. She sprouts new pin feathers all over and I see less and less feathers around after a couple weeks. I suggest you try it if your bird has issues like this. It's a little pricey but I think worth it. I soak a small unsalted cracker in water and spread a little on it. She eats the whole thing like it's her job. I think it is better than putting in her water.

Nekton always trusted source. These vitamins are a good option for bolstering vitamins needed for molting.

I tasted this myself and it has a lightly fruity flavor. It does not thicken the water. This product has really helped my Cockatiel, Quaker, and budgies through the process of molting. This season has been really hard on my Quaker. He is 2 years old and has been molting for a long time. But now I feel confident that he has all the vitamins and minerals that he needs to stay healthy. I only use this a couple times a week.

Still too early to know if /how beneficial but palatable, and easy to administer in their fruit and veggie mix they get daily.

I use this stuff in my flock of three every day. Sprinkle a little on their wet food.I first started using this when my Macaw was sick. We went to our Avian vet, she treated the illness.After she was cured and off the daily meds, the vet said that she recommended Nekton Bio for her.She especially recommended it for our little Senegal we adopted. She had done a bit of plucking, due to her previous living conditions.She had no toys or proper socialization. Our Avian vet said sock it to her with the Nekton Bio. Which we did.She stopped plucking and where the follicles weren't damaged she got her feathers back. She still has a bald spot around her neck area that will never grow back. I have to also add that she, since we brought her home, has plenty of stimulus to keep her busy. She has a bigger play area than my macaw!! and she uses it all!!! Ask your vet before using.

I got this product for my conure and was disappointed. The only reason for the third star is that everything arrived as described. However, my bird does not find yellow-powder this appealing. The powdered biotin does not mix in with the water like the directions say, but rather it sinks to the bottom. I can never if she really consumed any of the biotin because of this. It will end up being a daily/weekly waste because I am tired of constantly remixing and giving my pet stale water.

I have been using this product from December 2019 to today and I can say that it actually works very well my parrots are seen with a more vivid and colorful plumage, they also grow their feathers faster and help them a lot with the molt. I'll buy one more for this coming December so that my parakeets are so healthy
