Vetark Avipro Avian ; Prebiotic and Probiotic For All Bird Species ; Supports Digestive Health and Stress ; Easy to give ; 100g powder

This was recommended by a friend and it worked well

If you've got any kind of birds, including chickens in our case, if they've been through a period where they've had antibiotics for some reason or you notice that they've had bouts of diarrhoea, then give this stuff and it sorts them out. Out. You need very little of it and you don't need to give it continually just for a few days until the problem resolves itself. It's part of my first aid kit for the birds.

I buy this for the local animal and bird rescue centre. They gratefully receive it and I've not heard they dont use it or that it isnt excellent. I know many veterinary practices carry this brand and that's usually a positive. When my sweet baby got sick it was too long shipping time for her to benefit so she had overnight delivery Guardian Angel which was miraculous. They are both going to work wonders for a sick feather baby however. I guess it comes down to preference or in my case the quickest delivery time.

I had to take a star off as the top of the container is far to narrow to get the product out using the large spoon provided. I had to empty the contents and use another container.

Wouldn’t be without Avipro it’s important for parrots health and it was a good price

I can't comment on whether this worked. I am very experienced with birds having had all sorts since childhood and over the last 30 odd years. It's very hard to tell if a bird is ill until they are seriously ill as they tend to mask the issue as they are pray animals and don't want to look like easy pickings to predators. Two of my cockatiels looked a little lethargic so I separated them from the others in hospital cages, kept them a safe distance from a heater and have given them plenty of fresh chop and an changing their water several times a day. My guess is as it's both the males that are affected only, it's seasonal affective disorder - basically they don't like being taken in from the aviary when it's too cold out there and are adjusting to indoors and are a bit stressed out about being taken from their territory (although both are tame). I got this powder to be safe as possible, I'd prefer not to take a costly trip to the vets so will do all I can before that is the only option. Some people gave this a negative review because there were salts in a pack within the bottle to keep the powder dry - I didn't have this issue so maybe they have listened to reviewers and changed this. If the birds recover on their own, I can't possibly say it's down to this or not as I have done a multitude of things to help them. Therefore I'll give it 5 stars just because it is cost effective, easy to use (just add it to water or sprinkle some on food) and hopefully works!

A supplement for my ex-battery hens & although I can't confirm it definitely works they always seem to have good gut health / normal droppings

Does the job!
