Rice
Diet
RoudybushTM Inc.
introduces a new maintenance diet formulated
from rice products, minerals, and vitamins.
Birds showing signs of allergies to other food
products, such as feather picking/self
mutilation, may benefit from this
diet.
RoudybushTM is proud
to take avian nutrition to a new level with the
introduction of our new Rice Diet.
RoudybushTM Rice Diet
can be a powerful and easy tool to determine
whether common destructive behaviors such as
self mutilation or feather picking may be caused
by a food allergy. Current allergy testing
techniques can be unreliable and is one of the
reasons diagnosing and treating these disorders
are difficult. Rice Diet was developed to help
both veterinary professionals and bird owners
keep healthy, happy birds.
Rice Diet is
available in Mini and Small size pellets for
birds from budgies to macaws. Although the Rice
Diet is a Careline product, it does not require
a veterinarian's prescription and can be sold
over-the-counter.
With all serious health
problems, we recommend that owners consult a
qualified veterinarian to rule out other causes
of self-destructive behavior before changing
their birds' diet.
Follow Below
Instructions Carefully!
Once
your bird is eating the Rice Diet, do not give
it any other food items for up to 10 weeks. Do
not give any treats unless it is unseasoned rice
or a rice product with nothing but rice on the
ingredient list. Even one bite of a food your
bird is allergic to can cause a reaction. If you
see a decrease in itchy behavior or an
improvement in feathering, continue feeding your
bird the Rice Diet. After you've been able to
fully evaluate the results of the diet, you can
add back one simple food item at a time, and
then watch to see if the itchy behavior recurs.
If your bird continues to do well, then you know
that it can tolerate that food item. If your
bird reacts to the addition of the new food
item, wait until the itchiness subsides before
trying another food item.
