A nutrient rich hand feeding formula for your baby Parrots up to fledgling.

This Hagen Hari Tropican Hand Feeding Formula 400g gives the right nutrition for baby birds.

It’s been designed for optimal digestion, so as soon as they hatch until fledging your Parrot receives the best nutrition.

To prepare it, add hot water and mix together. 

The mix has no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives, just a high calorie content to help your Parrot grow and the right protein levels to support their wellbeing.

Hari have developed this mix and they carry out regular research into Parrot nutrition and are trusted by vets and owners.


Formula Preparation: Mix hot water with correct volume (See Feeding Instructions below) of Tropican Hand-Feeding Formula (alternatively, use cold water and microwave). CAUTION: Always mix food completely and beware of hot spots.

Because of Tropican’s beneficial gelatinization properties, it will take a minute to fully moisturize with water. Therefore, fine tuning the consistency is advised. Simply add a little bit more water if needed.

Final temperature should be slightly above body temperature (38°C / 100°F) and should never be fed to chicks in excess of 40.5°C (105°F). An accurate, calibrated thermometer should always be used to verify the desired temperature. Overheated food can burn delicate mouth, throat and crop tissues. Tropican Hand-Feeding Formula for Baby Parrots is a complete diet. Do not dilute this food with other baby foods or its complete dietary balance will be lost, and the mixture may become deficient in vital nutrients.

MAKE A FRESH BATCH OF FORMULA FOR EACH FEEDING. ALWAYS USE CLEAN UTENSILS AND ACCURATE MEASURES.

Feeding Instructions: 
0 - 2 Days - 90% Hot water to 10% Formula
3 - 7 Days - 85% Hot water to 15% Formula
7 - 21 Days - 80% Hot water to 20% Formula
21 Days - 75% Hot Water to 25% Formula

Feeding Guide: Administration of food with a feeding syringe is recommended provided you are confident of the proper technique to be used. Use a separate syringe for each clutch. If you are not confident with syringe feeding, a spoon bent on either side can also be used.

Place syringe tip slightly into left side of beak with one hand. Pressure should be placed on the Beak’s commissures with the fingers of the other hand and palm of hand held behind the head of chick, preventing the syringe to injure the mouth when chick will react with a feeding response.

When bird gives feeding response (head pumping), start feeding and aim towards the back right side of the mouth. Close monitoring of chick response and respiration is essential to prevent aspiration. Fill crop without excess stretching.

A daily weight monitoring and amount fed chart should be kept for health growth parameters and future reference. Allow crop to completely empty between feedings.

A bent teaspoon may also be used to slowly drip food into beak. Metal feeding tubes are not recommended, as they can pierce the crop and esophagus, allowing food to leak out.

Lories: Feed the formula as a dry powder in a separate bowl. A second bowl may contain some diced fruits mixed with Prime and the formula however make sure the birds first are eating the dry food. Some sugar can be mixed up to 10 % with the formula to get the lories to start eating it, but discontinue this once the birds are eating the food. On a liquid diet of simple sugars, lories are sensitive to bacterial gut infections thus feeding exclusively a dry powder such as Tropican Hand-feeding Formula is not only easier but also leads to better health.

Finches, Canaries and other small species: As a dry powder in a separate bowl during stress, moulting, and breeding.
