Vetafarm Poly-Aid Plus 40g First Aid Recovery Supplement for Sick & Injured Birds

Vetafarm Poly-Aid Plus 40g: First Aid Recovery Supplement for Sick and Injured Birds

Vetafarm Poly-Aid Plus is a first aid recovery supplement for sick, injured or stressed birds and small animals that aren't eating on their own. Formulated by avian vets, it's a powder you mix into a slurry and give directly, so a bird that's too unwell to feed still takes in the energy and nutrients it needs to keep fighting.

It's important to understand what Poly-Aid Plus is and isn't: it does not cure disease. What it does is provide concentrated, readily absorbed nutrition, sustained-release carbohydrates for ongoing energy, essential proteins, a probiotic to help restore gut flora, and vitamins and electrolytes to support recovery from illness and stress. In other words, it buys a struggling bird energy and support while it recovers or while other treatment does its work.

That makes it a genuinely useful thing to keep on hand in a bird keeper's or rescuer's first aid kit, ready for the moment a bird goes into a hospital or recovery cage.

Key Features & Benefits

• First aid nutritional support for sick, injured or stressed birds and small animals

• For birds that are not eating voluntarily and need feeding directly

• Sustained-release carbohydrates for ongoing energy

• Essential proteins to support recovery and condition

• Probiotic to help restore healthy gut flora

• Vitamins and electrolytes to support hydration and recovery from stress

• Formulated by avian vets, and a valuable part of a bird first aid kit

What It Contains

• Sustained-release carbohydrates (hydrolysed maize starch) for energy

• Protein (albumen)

• A multi-strain probiotic to support gut flora

• A broad vitamin range (A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, B12, C, D3, E, H, K)

• Electrolytes and minerals including sodium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium sulphate and calcium gluconate

How to Use

• Mix 5mL of water into 10g of Poly-Aid Plus to make a slurry

• Give directly by crop or medication needle, or by spoon, for birds not eating on their own

• Or mix it into food for animals that are eating voluntarily but need extra dietary support

• Make up fresh for each use and discard any leftover mixture

• Give it as soon as a bird goes into a hospital or recovery cage, and dose as required for the bird's size and condition

Getting the Best From It

• Start it early: giving support at the first sign of a bird being off can make a real difference

• Always make a fresh slurry each time, as it's a nutrient-rich mix that shouldn't be left standing

• Keep the powder sealed and stored cool so it stays fresh for when you need it

• Because it doesn't treat the underlying problem, pair it with proper diagnosis and treatment from an avian vet for a seriously unwell bird
