Nutri-Meals - for the Fruit & Veggie Lover in your Bird

It's no secret... we all need more fruit and veggies in our diets! Our feathered friends love their fruits and veggies.

Nutri-Meals are a scientific blend of 31% fruit and veggies, 36% pellets, wholesome grains and contain all the vitamins, minerals and nutrients for complete and balanced nutrition. Watch your bird smile when you open and serve a Nutri-Meal bar.

The Most Advanced Avian Nutritional Meal Available

Dr. Lafeber working along with other top veterinary and nutritional experts, designed Nutri-Meals with cutting edge avian nutrition:

• Nutritionally balanced
• Omega 3 & 6 fatty acid balanced
• Chelated minerals (vital for proper absorption)
• Excellent foraging food
• Special bar shape
• Naturally preserved
• Naturally flavored

Omega 3 & 6 Balanced

Balancing the Omega Fatty Acids increases immune function. Generally, increased immune function helps the body's ability to fight disease. Balanced omega 3 & 6's also improves the quality of the skin. More than ever, each Nutri-Meal provides excellent nutrition for your loved feathered companion.

Chelated Minerals

In order for your bird's body to absorb some minerals, they must first undergo complex digestive and transport processes which can decrease the rate of absorption. Chelated minerals help sidestep part of the digestive process making absorption easier so a greater supply is available to the body's cells when needed and giving your bird the nutritients to support optimal health.

Advanced Behavioral Design for Foraging and Enrichment

Avian veterinarians across the country have discovered that food enrichment is an important part of a bird's health. Chris Davis, a pioneer of companion avian behavior modification, working with leading veterinarians, designed the shape and texture of Nutri-Meals to provide premium avian enrichment. A nutritious assortment of real fruit pieces, pellets, large seeds, and small seeds is bound together as a bar specifically designed for the curve of your bird's beak and the shape of your bird's foot. All this helps create foraging fun and robust health for your bird. At Lafeber's, we are passionate about nourishing and enriching your bird's life.

About Our President And His Family

Dr. Lafeber has literally spent his entire life caring for beloved animals. Growing up, he spent nearly each weekend and every holiday working with his father, Dr. Lafeber Sr., at his animal hospital.
