Description

Super Fine is the smallest grind Harrison's make, and it exists for one reason: a canary or a finch cannot eat a pellet built for a cockatiel. This is the same certified organic, Non-GMO Project Verified High Potency formula, milled small enough for the little birds to actually pick up and eat.

Which birds this is for

Canaries, finches, budgies (parakeets) and other small parrots. If your bird is cockatiel-sized or larger, High Potency Fine is the right grind.

When to feed it

High Potency is the conversion, breeding and recovery formula. Feed it while a bird is coming off seed (six months minimum), breeding, moulting, off its ideal weight, or recovering. When the bird is healthy and settled, Adult Lifetime Super Fine is the everyday maintenance version.

Converting a canary, finch or budgie

Please read this part before you start. A small bird has a fast metabolism and can starve in as little as 36–48 hours if it stops eating, so the blunt methods used on big parrots are not safe here. Harrison's recommend:

  • Feeding JumpStart Grey Millet in place of the usual seed for 3–5 weeks first.
  • Baking the bird's current seed into Bird Bread Mix and reducing the seed proportion over a week or two.
  • Sprinkling the pellets over a mirror — it works surprisingly often with budgies and cockatiels.
  • Housing the bird near one that already eats Harrison's.

Allow as much time as the bird needs, weigh daily, and speak to an avian vet before you begin. Gradually weeding out seed is not recommended for budgies, finches or any bird under 50 g.

How much to feed

Feed fresh daily as distinct meals. Harrison's should be the great majority of the diet, with a smaller share of organic dark green leafy or dark yellow vegetables. Do not add extra vitamin or mineral supplements — it is a complete diet already.

Questions we get asked

Will a canary really eat pellets?
Many do, given time and the right grind. Super Fine is the size that makes it possible; JumpStart Grey Millet first makes it likelier.

How long does 1 lb last?
A single canary or finch will take a couple of months over it. Buy small and keep it fresh.

Is there a 5 lb bag?
Harrison's only make Super Fine in the 1 lb size.
