Whether you’re raising parrots, finches, cockatiels, or other aviary companions, Neocare delivers advanced nutrition for optimal growth, development, and long-term health.

Why Choose Vetafarm Neocare?

  • Nutritionally Complete: Fortified with essential nutrients including calcium, phosphorus, lysine, methionine, and a full spectrum of vitamins and minerals for optimal skeletal, feather, and metabolic development.
  • Digestive Support: Contains probiotics, prebiotics (chicory root extract), and digestive enzymes to improve gut health, nutrient absorption, and reduce digestive upsets.
  • High Digestibility: Produced using extrusion technology to enhance safety, mixability, and digestibility.
  • Locally Sourced Ingredients: Made with fresh, Australian-grown whole grains and soy proteins.

Feeding Preparation & Instructions

Important Notes:

  • Always prepare fresh Neocare formula before each feed.
  • Never reheat or reuse leftover formula.
  • Do not microwave—this can cause dangerous “hot spots” and crop burns.
  • Always mix using a fork, not a spoon, to ensure smooth consistency.

Neonate / Transition Feeding:

  1. Mix 2 small level scoops of Neocare with 1 large scoop and 1 small scoop of boiling water.
  2. Stir thoroughly with a fork until smooth and lump-free.
  3. Gradually thicken formula over the first 48 hours of feeding.

Regular Feeding:

  1. Mix 1 large scoop of Neocare with 1 large scoop of boiling water. Stir thoroughly.
  2. Add 3 small scoops of cool water. Mix until a smooth, consistent texture is achieved.
  3. Ensure formula is between 38–41°C before feeding to prevent crop burns and indigestion.

Feeding Frequency Guidelines

  • Feed your baby birds between 5–6am (first feed) and 10–11pm (last feed).
  • Once every 24 hours, allow the crop to empty completely.
  • Feeding frequency and volume vary by species and age—consult your avian vet or refer to species-specific guidelines.
  • Record your bird’s weight daily before the first feed to monitor healthy growth.
