Nature’s Nest exists to care for birds through thoughtful nutrition and long-term thinking.
We approach avian food with the same calm responsibility you would expect from a trusted veterinarian. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is included without purpose. Every decision is made with the understanding that nutrition shapes a bird’s health, behaviour, and lifespan.
This is not food designed to attract attention. It is food designed to support life.
Veterinary Formulation
All Nature’s Nest food is formulated by veterinarians.
The formulations are developed and held by Dr Deon de Beer and Dr Coetzee de Beer, who together bring more than fifty years of combined veterinary experience.
Their work is grounded in long-term outcomes, not short-term trends. Ingredients are chosen for function. Ratios are considered carefully. Balance matters more than marketing claims.
This veterinary foundation is not a feature. It is the baseline.
A Long View of Nutrition
Birds live within complex systems. Their nutrition affects more than appetite. It influences digestion, immunity, behaviour, and longevity.
At Nature’s Nest, formulation decisions are made with this whole system in mind. We look beyond single ingredients and focus on how nutrients work together over time.
Fewer formulations, done properly, are preferred over constant expansion. Conservative choices are made deliberately. Long-term health always comes first.
Education as Part of Care
Many bird owners were taught that birds eat seeds. This belief is widespread and understandable.
We see education as part of responsible care. Our role is not to alarm or correct, but to explain calmly and clearly how nutrition works and why balance matters.
If someone leaves knowing more than they did before and feeling more confident in how they care for their bird, the work has value.
How We Work
Nature’s Nest is guided by restraint and responsibility.
Science is treated with respect, not used as a buzzword. Claims are made carefully. Language is chosen with intention.
Every decision is filtered through the same questions. Does this serve the bird first. Does this support long-term health. Would a veterinarian stand behind this statement. Will this still feel true in ten years.
If the answer is no, it does not belong.
Our Commitment
Nature’s Nest is committed to raising the standard of avian nutrition through veterinary formulation, thoughtful education, and care that extends beyond profit.
We believe trust is earned slowly, through consistency and clarity. That is how we choose to work, and how we will continue.
