Bird Care Calciboost Liquid

A liquid calcium supplement for birds with added vitamin D3 to be added to drinking water or onto moist soft food. CalciBoost calcium supplement stops the most common deficiency in cage and aviary birds, calcium deficiency. Despite the tons of cuttlefish bone fed every year, calcium deficiency is still the biggest problem in bird keeping! Most of the cuttlefish which is supplied to try to raise calcium levels when eaten by the bird goes straight out in the droppings. As with other minerals the difficulty is absorbing it into the bloodstream. CalciBoost was developed as a super-saturated chelated calcium solution. CalciBoost uses a chelated mineral technology similar to the calcium supplied in nature by plants. So it is easily absorbed and quickly gets to the bones, nerves and muscles where it is needed. It is such an effective calcium source that most of the year you will only need it once or twice a week (definitely twice for African greys and Eclectus). Calciboost is a quality chelated calcium! 

A shortage of usable calcium lies at the root of many problems, including:

egg laying
egg binding
weak hens that cannot lay or continue to lay more clutches
broken bones in young chicks
rickets in baby birds
slow molts and french molt
feather plucking
nervousness

twirling and co-ordination problems which may go as far as falling off the perch
