The Nederlands Vita Seeds

These diets are scientifically formulated and well balanced with vitamins, amino acids and digestive enzymes.

Specially Balanced For Each Bird's Specific Needs.

Higgins starts with only fresh current year seeds and grains. Then they clean and polish the seeds and grains to remove dust, which is harmful to all birds' delicate respiratory air sacs. Their special process of "pasteurization" is done with specially designed machinery which ensures a good shelf life. Then add liquid and pellet vitamins fortified which consist of vitamins, minerals, amino acids (protein), digestive enzymes, fruit concentrates and vegetables. Isn’t this what you want for your birds?
