Description

Nekton Bio Protein for Parrot Feather Growth 375g (13.23oz)

Nekton-Bio is a protein-enriched food supplement to ensure good feather growth and help prevent plumage defects

After years of research and experiments, we developed NEKTON-BIO to meet certain problems in a bird’s plumage and to ensure healthy feather growth in all types of birds.

Feathers are largely protein in nature, which is why 18 free amino acids have been included in NEKTON-BIO to help a bird build the proteins needed. Of the amino acids, arginine, methionine, and lysine are particularly vital in a supplement because most cage or aviary birds are fed on bird seed, which is poor in these amino acids. Vitamins A, E, and Biotin also have a positive effect on feather growth. Altogether 13 vitamins, 6 trace elements, and calcium have been combined with the amino acids to create a special formula to support the organism during the molt and encourage the growth of smooth and glossy feathers.

Special Supplement to Help Improve Feathers

A bird‘s feathers have various functions. Its body feathers regulate the body to eat, while the wing and tail feathers are needed in flight and to guide flight. 

The bird‘s appearance and attraction are determined by its plumage, which can also protect it from enemies through plain coloring, or, of course, birds who have little or no mating calls have a distinctive and decorative feather dress to attract mates and avoid interbreeding among different types.

Whether in respect to a nestling‘s first set of feathers or a new set for a molting bird, this is a highly complicated process that puts a great strain on the bird‘s entire organism. And as feathers makeup, 5% of the bird‘s whole weight and are largely protein in nature it is very important for the bird to get a well-balanced diet rich in protein and supplemented by vitamins and minerals when a new set of feathers is growing in. 

The majority of feather defects in cage birds are due to incorrect feeding. An incorrect diet is often the reason, too, that birds die during the molt, and not because of molting disorders as many owners claim, but due to a lack of protein and/or vitamins, macro and trace elements.

A bird reduces the protein contained in the food into its different components of amino acids) and uses them to produce its own protein. It is therefore particularly important to give a bird an exact and well-balanced diet of all the indispensable and limiting amino acids to enable it to produce sufficient protein of its own.

Most cage or aviary birds are fed on birdseed and vegetable matter, which are not always in a position to cover a bird‘s protein requirements because of their unfavorable amino acid composition. This means that in stress situations such as during the molt, parasitic infestations, infections, etc., problems in the metabolic processes and feather growth arise and result in death in some cases.

This poor amino acid composition has been taken into account in the development of NEKTON-BIO. NEKTON-BIO contains not only 18 different free amino acids in the correct relationship, but all those vitamins necessary for feather growth as well as a great variety of minerals, for these substances are also particularly important for the smooth functioning of all metabolic processes and therefore promote feather growth.

Due to USDA regulations, imported vitamins/foods and supplements are only allowed to have an 18-month shelf life. This top-quality supplement is stated by Nekton to last at least a year beyond its expiration date.
