Feeding Directions:

This diet should be fed to prepare for breeding and throughout the breeding season. If the birds are seasonal breeders or they are managed to be seasonal breeders, offer the Mazuri Small Bird Breeder Diet at the start of the breeding season. If the birds are bred all year, feed this diet continuously. Wean young birds on this diet and continue feeding until the first molt. After the first molt, switch birds to Mazuri Small Bird Maintenance Diet.
To switch birds from seeds (or any diet they are currently being fed) to Mazuri Small Bird Breeder Diet, do a gradual changeover. Start with 90% seed (or current diet) and 10% Mazuri Small Bird Breeder Diet. On each succeeding day, reduce the amount of seeds by 10% while increasing the amount of Mazuri by 10%. On the 10th day, the diet should consist only of Mazuri Small Bird Breeder Diet.

Monitor the bird's weight and behavior carefully during the conversion period. Be especially attentive during the 10th to the 12th day. If the bird is losing weight, or if the bird is not consuming the product, offer the bird a mix of 50% seed and 50% Mazuri and restart the conversion process from this point. If the bird is not eating, the excreta color will become dark green and the volume will decrease. If the bird is consuming the Small Bird Breeder Diet, the excreta will be a brownish-green color.
