2.The method of brewing.
The stomach and intestines of parrots are very immature at the stage of drinking milk powder, so when making milk powder, we must pay attention to the water temperature and brew it with a water temperature of 40 °C, so that the beneficial bacteria in the milk powder will not be killed by the high temperature, thereby reducing nutrition. The ratio of milk powder to water is 1:25. Add water first, then add milk powder, stir slowly, stir into a paste, but scoop it up with a spoon and still flow. To ensure that the feeding temperature is between 38-42 degrees, a thermometer can be prepared for measurement.
3.Method of feeding.
Parrots have pointed beaks and should be fed with a special spoon as the main tool. When the parrot's sac reaches 7-8 points full, it should be stopped in time to avoid forcibly expanding its appetite, which can cause vomiting and other health problems. After feeding your parrot, remember to wipe its mouth to prevent the formula from coagulating. If the parrot has already started to consume the staple food, in addition to the milk powder, you can add some healthy foods such as vegetables and fruits to it every day or two. In order to enrich the parrot's diet, it can be provided with some shelled grains, such as millet, millet, rice, etc.
Overall, making the right parrot milk powder is the key to ensuring that the parrot gets adequate nutrition. Before using milk powder, you need to understand its composition and proportion, choose the right water temperature and quality, and follow the instructions.
