<>In nature birds eat other things besides seeds, insects, fruit herbs etc, are picked up daily by a bird living in its natural habitat to assure the necessary foodstuffs it requires. That is why every successful bird keeper will supply along with the standard seed mixtures various supplementary products ensuring the supply of vitamins, minerals and aminoacids which are required. Shortages of certain aminoacids, vitamins and minerals in the daily ration of the bird quite often leads to poor breeding results and diseases. The veterinarians and nutritionists of Versele_Laga developed seed mixtures for birds, enriched with V.A.M. pellets. V.A.M. pellets are extruded pellets, manufactured by the same process as the very high praised Nutribird pellets. As it is well known, these Nutribird pellets are a complete food. V.A.M pellets however are very rich in vitamins, minerals and aminoacids. They also contain fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) and a high percentage of proteins and energy. V.A.M pellets are not a complete food, but a supplement to the seed mixtures. By adding V.A.M pellets to the appropriate seed mixtures, the well balanced range Prestige Premium Seed Mixtures for birds is obtained. Diseases resulting from nutritional deficiences are in this way prevented.
