Directions For Use

Hand Feeding: Mix with formula after cooling to 100°F or less. Provide one feeding on days 1, 3, 5 and 7, and then one feeding per week until weaned from hand feeding formula.

Growing and Maintenance: Treat birds weekly by top dressing BBP on moistened or oiled dry food or fresh fruits or vegetables. Use 1/8 teaspoon for birds 1 lb or less and 1/8 teaspoon for every pound thereafter up to a maximum of 1 teaspoon per treatment. Discard uneaten food after no more than 8 hours and thoroughly wash dishes.

Changing Conditions: Use quantities indicated for growing and maintenance, but provide 2 feedings, 3 days apart, before and after periods of environmental or nutritional changes. If the bird is anorexic, consult your veterinarian.

Regular use of BBP for normal maintenance is recommended.

General Information: If several birds are maintained in a common cage or flyway, use the approximate total weight of all birds to determine the feeding level. Mix with the feed so that all of the birds receive the appropriate dose.

For large ratites, use 1 teaspoon for growing birds and 2 teaspoons for mature stock. Follow frequency directions indicated above.

One level teaspoon equals approximately 2.7 g of BBP.

Wash all feeding dishes, water bottles, or water dishes thoroughly with hot, soapy water and rinse well after each use.

Reptiles should be provided BBP on the same weight basis as birds.

Be sure to contact your veterinarian for any illness.

Precaution(s)

Store in cool, dry conditions.
