Diet transition When changing a bird onto a new food it is important to do this gradually over several days. If the bird is already on a seed-based diet, over a few days mix some old food in with Beaphar XtraVital Canary to give the bird time to adjust to the new food. Some birds do not require a changeover period and will readily accept the new food.

Alternatively, if a bird is being changed from a pelleted diet to a seed-based diet, this may need to be done over several weeks to ensure the bird accepts the new style of food. If unsure how to do this then please follow the schedule for transition below as a guide.

The daily amount of Beaphar XtraVital Canary to give the bird is dependent upon age, size and health. The below information is a guide, so adjustments may need to be made to the feeding amounts to suit the bird’s requirements.

Schedule for transition Week one: Feed approximately 25% of Beaphar XtraVital mixed with approximately 75% of their existing seed-based food. Week two: Feed approximately 50% of Beaphar XtraVital mixed with approximately 50% of their existing seed-based food. Week three: Feed approximately 75% of Beaphar XtraVital mixed with approximately 25% of their existing seed-based food. Week four: If the bird is happily eating Beaphar XtraVital then stop mixing their existing seed-based food in.

Some birds may need to continue the transition process for longer. Always have fresh drinking water available.
