Nesting SuperBlend® Gives Your Birds a Leg Up!

Did you know calcium is the most challenging mineral for birds? That's because they need A LOT of it for egg-laying and chick development, and they need it QUICKLY. But the calcium in birds' natural diet of seeds and insects is often inadequate. That's where our Nesting SuperBlend comes in!

  • High in protein and with added calcium, this seed blend is designed specifically for birds’ nesting and molting needs.
  • It's perfect for birds preparing to nest, while they nest, and for the young when they leave the nest.

And why not try our live mealworms, too? Birds go crazy for them, they're high in needed protein, and watching mom and dad carry mealworms back to the nest for their chicks is a ton of fun!
