Vetafarm Paradise Pellets

Paradise Pellets have been expertly formulated by avian veterinarians to meet the unique, low-iron dietary needs of Eclectus Parrots and other frugivorous birds such as fruit pigeons, birds of paradise, and miners. Inspired by the natural diet of these species, Paradise Pellets combine fresh, carefully selected low-iron Australian grains with seasonal fruits to create a complete, balanced diet that supports health, vitality, and longevity.

Recognising that nature provides the best blueprint for nutrition, these pellets are crafted to replicate the birds’ natural feeding habits while delivering scientifically balanced nutrients essential for growth, breeding, brain function, and optimal feather development. The extrusion process enhances the natural flavours, improves digestibility, and ensures food safety, making Paradise Pellets an ideal staple for your frugivorous birds.
