    Product Description

    Birds have behavioural and/or nutritional needs for ingestion of soluble grit. Specially ground for all cage and aviary birds, HARI Oyster Shells soluble grit is readily digested by acids in the proventriculus and will not cause crop impaction, Calcium deficiency can be a problem for companion birds and so it’s important to feed calcium-rich foods and supplements.

    Soluble oyster shells provide a natural source of calcium which is required by all caged birds year-round and is essential when breeding for stronger bone and egg shell formation.

    Birds with digestive problems may benefit from the addition of small amounts of soluble grit to their diet.

    If you suspect your birds has a digestive problem, consult your avian vet regarding your bird’s need for a soluble grit. In order for the calcium to be absorbed, it is vital to ensure that the right amount of vitamin D3 is also provided. One of the best ways to provide this essential vitamin is through sunlight or an avian full spectrum UVB light.
