{"product_id":"morning-bird-feather-moult-support","title":"Morning Bird Feather \u0026 Moult Support","description":"\u003cp\u003eA moult is one of the most demanding things a bird's body does. Feathers are almost entirely protein, and growing a full set in a few weeks takes protein, B vitamins and biotin out of the bird faster than an ordinary diet replaces them. Birds in moult get irritable, tired and scruffy for a reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo products here, doing different jobs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeather Fast — the moult supplement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA powder carrying \u003cstrong\u003e17 vitamins and minerals\u003c\/strong\u003e, with biotin and the B-complex as the headline feather inputs. Morning Bird formulate it for the moult and feather-regrowth period, to support feather growth and plumage condition and to take some of the strain off a moulting bird.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDosing:\u003c\/strong\u003e in water, ¼ teaspoon per ounce of drinking water, changed daily. Or in food, ⅛ teaspoon for a small bird up to 1 teaspoon for an extra-large one, daily. One method, not both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Morning Bird say not to use it alongside other vitamin supplements. Fat-soluble vitamins accumulate, and stacking products is how a bird ends up with too much of one rather than enough of everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIngredients: corn maltodextrin, whey protein concentrate, vitamins A, D3 and E, B-complex, biotin, folic acid, zinc sulfate, iron sulfate and copper sulfate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeather-Glo — the oil\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single ingredient: \u003cstrong\u003epure organic red dende palm oil\u003c\/strong\u003e, 97% fat. Fed as a dietary fat supplement rather than applied to the bird. Morning Bird position it for dry, flaky skin and for feather sheen, and single out \u003cstrong\u003emacaws, cockatoos and African greys\u003c\/strong\u003e as the species that benefit most — which matches what most keepers of those species will tell you about dry skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDosing:\u003c\/strong\u003e warm the container until the oil liquefies, then 1–2 drops per 3 oz of body weight daily, mixed into the regular food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich one, or both?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeather Fast is for the moult itself — a defined period of a few weeks. Feather-Glo is for skin and feather condition generally, and many owners of greys and cockatoos use it year-round. They are not alternatives and many households use both, though Feather Fast should not be stacked with a separate multivitamin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBefore you buy either\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePoor feather condition has a long list of possible causes, and diet is only one of them. A bird that is plucking, or whose feathers are coming in damaged or barred, needs an avian vet rather than a supplement. These support a normal moult; they do not fix an abnormal one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCautions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot for human consumption. Keep away from children. Not for birds kept for meat or egg consumption. Store cool, dark and dry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Morning Bird","offers":[{"title":"Feather Fast — 2 oz","offer_id":50523769569499,"sku":"MB504","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Feather Fast — 4.5 oz","offer_id":50523769602267,"sku":"MB505","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Feather-Glo palm oil — 4 oz","offer_id":50523769635035,"sku":"MB141","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0058\/6733\/9846\/files\/Feather_Fast_4.5oz_1200x1200_384edc9d-d591-4ed6-953e-b7b41cc26f85.jpg?v=1790508757","url":"https:\/\/farooze.com\/products\/morning-bird-feather-moult-support","provider":"FAROOZE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
