Happy Birthday to the food
that started it all! In the early 1970s, Dr. Lafeber began experimenting with a
pelleted food for birds. Initially, he made the pellets on a small mill in the
rear of his animal hospital. Fifty years later, we’re proud to say that we
offer a full line of Premium Daily Pellets and so much more for our feathered
friends.
Budgies are living longer
lives as more people realize that these small birds cannot thrive on seed
alone. Seeds are high in fat and lack the essential vitamins and minerals for a
long, healthy life. Even seed mixes that are coated with vitamins and minerals
fall short on complete nutrition, because once the bird cracks and hulls the
seed these benefits are lost.
We created our Premium Daily
Pellets to make feeding your parakeet a nutritionally complete diet easy and
convenient. Lafeber’s Premium Daily Pellets for Parakeets are a high-quality
blend of natural ingredients like ground non-GMO corn and soybean meal. Each
pellet contains all the nutrients your parakeet needs for a full, energetic,
and healthy life.
Our pellets are flavored
with molasses, which enhances taste naturally and improves the acceptance of
pellets when finicky “seed junkies” are converted to a healthy diet. They are
sized for your parakeet to crumble up and can be offered as a full meal or as
an important part of your bird’s diet. Many parakeet owners have found that
their birds love a combination of foods along with their pellets, such
as Nutriberries and Avi-Cakes and various fruits and vegetables.
Our grains are literally grown
outside Lafeber Company’s front door. We also include whole egg, one of the
most digestible forms of protein, and essential vitamins, minerals, and amino
acids are added to the mixed grains.
Lafeber’s Premium Daily
Pellets are Omega 3& 6 fatty acid balanced to give your bird a stronger
immune system, stronger bones, and healthier feathers. We also naturally flavor
and naturally preserve our foods, and each batch of pellets is scientifically
tested for quality at an independent laboratory so you can feel good about
feeding Lafeber foods to your feathered companion.
