Liqui-Kelp
Iodine supplement
Iodine deficiency
is a common problem in many caged birds but is especially common in the
Australian birds. The Australian birds seem to need more iodine than
other pet birds. Iodine is required for the proper functioning of
the thyroid gland. Deficiencies can result in poor feather condition,
difficulty molting, breathing problems, reduced singing, reduced activity
and poor breeding. Liqui-Kelp provides the additional iodine needed
by the Australian finches. Just 2-4 drops per quart of drinking water
provides the additional needed iodine and eliminates the balding that is
so common in Lady Gouldians.
