Vetark Avipro

Brand: Vetark

Product Code: 11069

Avipro, supplied by 123 Aquatics is a probiotic combination of bacteria, enzymes, electrolytes and vitamins. Its high palatability means it can be added to the reptile drinking water making its use simple for all species of birds.

AVIPRO contains:
- Two species of Lactobacillus with Streptococcus faecium which live for a short time in the birds gut, helping to stabilise the pH.
- Yeasts to provide a source of amino acids and vitamins.
- Lipase (often low in young birds), amylase, protease and cellulase.
- Electrolytes to aid in maintaining adequate levels in birds with diarrhoea which lose electrolytes

For general use as a routine nutritional aid, 1 scoop per 200ml drinking water can be used. This is especially useful when birds diets are being changed or when moulting, or when birds are being conditioned for the breeding season. For support of stressed birds use 4g (one scoop) per 100ml of drinking water.

A very important aspect of this is the use by the veterinary surgeon in birds which are under treatment with antibacterials where the normal flora may be unbalanced and a bloom of inappropriate bacteria may occur causing perhaps haemorrhagic enteritis. This use has proved particularly important in macaws.
