Nature’s Nest Maize Sticks: A Nutritious and Versatile Treat for Your Pet Birds
If you’re a bird owner, you know that finding the right food for your feathered friend can be a challenge. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our new maize sticks, which are a nutritious and versatile treat that birds love!
Why We Made the Switch
Our maize sticks are replacing our micronized maize, which we can no longer obtain due to supply chain disruptions as a result of loadshedding. However, we’re confident that our new maize sticks are even better for your birds than our previous product!
What’s Inside
Our maize sticks are made with a blend of maize, bran, zeolite, and apple concentrate. While the maize stick on its own is not a balanced diet, it’s a great snack that your birds will love. We also mix it in as an ingredient in our Avian Deluxe and Avian Wholegrain food products, which do provide a healthy, balanced diet for pet birds.
Heat-Treated
The heat process makes the maize sticks more digestible. It ensures that your bird can get the most out of the maize sticks.
Texture Matters
After years of research, we’ve discovered that texture is just as important as taste for our feathered friends. The great feedback we’ve received about our new product has been very encouraging! We’ve found that birds love to play with their food and that a variety of textures keeps them interested and engaged. The size of the maize sticks is 6mm, this also adds more variety in size.
Exciting Feature: Make a Crumbly, Mushy Treat for Your Birds
One of the most exciting things you can do with our maize sticks is to add luke-warm water to them. Mix the water through and let it cool down to create a crumbly, mushy product that birds love to play with and eat. It’s a great way to provide some variety in your bird’s diet and keep them entertained!
Versatile Use
Our maize sticks can be given as a snack on their own, or mixed in with our Avian Deluxe and Avian Wholegrain food products for a complete and balanced diet. They can also be used as a training treat to reward good behavior or as a tool to encourage foraging and play.
In Conclusion
Our new maize sticks are a great snack that your birds will love, and they’re also a key ingredient in our Avian Deluxe and Avian Wholegrain food products. The heat treatment process ensures great digestibility, while the texture provides a fun and interesting eating experience. Give our maize sticks a try and see how much your birds enjoy them!
