Looking for the perfect food to ensure strong, fast growth for your baby parrot? Introducing Versele-Laga NutriBird A19 handfeeding food, 250g. This veterinary hand-feeding formula is specially designed to meet the high energy needs of large chicks, ensuring a healthy start to life, a strong body structure, and bright, vibrant feathers.
Why Is Versele-Laga A19 the First Choice for Large Parrot Breeders?
Bird nutritional needs vary by species, and large chicks require an energy-rich diet. The Versele-Laga A19 formula contains carefully balanced, high levels of fats and proteins that closely mimic the natural diet of species such as the African Grey, Cockatoo, and Macaw. This formula also supports crop health thanks to digestive enzymes and beneficial bacteria (probiotics), helping prevent common digestive problems during hand-feeding periods.
Benefits and Features of Versele-Laga A19 Bird Formula (250g):
- High energy for optimal growth: Contains high levels of fats and proteins to meet the energy needs of chicks for healthy development.
- Digestive support (Probiotics): Enriched with beneficial bacteria and digestive enzymes that ensure healthy crop emptying and prevent the buildup of harmful bacteria.
- Healthy, shiny feather development: Rich in vitamins and essential amino acids that support dense, strong feather growth from the first weeks.

Preparation and Feeding Instructions (Correct Hand-Feeding Method)
To ensure the safety of your chicks and proper nutrition, please follow the preparation instructions carefully:
- Determine the ratio: The powder-to-water ratio varies depending on the chick’s age (newly hatched chicks need a very runny mixture, and the consistency thickens gradually as they grow).
- Mixing: Mix the powder with warm (not boiling) water and stir well until fully dissolved and no clumps remain.
- Temperature: Make sure the mixture is between 38 and 39 °C before feeding to avoid burning the chick’s crop or causing it to refuse food.
- Fresh meals: Prepare a fresh meal for every feeding session. Storing leftover mixture for later use is strictly prohibited to avoid bacterial contamination.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About A19 Handfeeding Food
What is the difference between Versele-Laga A19 and A21?
The A19 formula contains a higher fat content, making it ideal for large parrots such as Congos and Cockatoos that need a great deal of energy. The A21 formula, on the other hand, is designed for birds that need less fat, such as Caiques, Canaries, and Rosellas.
How many times a day should chicks be fed?
The number of feedings depends on the chick’s age and how quickly its crop empties. Always make sure the bird’s crop is nearly empty before offering the next meal to avoid food fermentation.
