Description
xOverview
Pretty Bird International Softbill Select with Fructose is designed to simplify feeding and daily management for softbilled birds such as mynahs and toucans. The formula includes fructose, a naturally occurring ingredient found in fruit, and the nuggets are shaped smaller for easier handling during busy feeding times. The product also maintains a modest iron level (less than 60 ppm), which sits well within commonly cited safe ranges and supports a balanced mineral profile in a varied diet.
Key benefits at a glance
- Small nugget size reduces waste and makes portioning smoother, especially for birds adjusting to new foods.
- Fructose from fruit peers into the diet, encouraging a familiar taste while diversifying textures.
- Iron levels below 60 ppm provide a lighter mineral load within a mixed feeding plan.
- Convenient 3 lb bags simplify stocking and reordering; six bags per case keeps a steady supply in busy aviaries.
- Daily fruit offerings are encouraged by softbill keepers and this formula pairs well with such routines.
How to use
Offer Pretty Bird International Softbill Select as part of a balanced daily feeding routine. Pair the pellets with fresh fruit and a variety of seeds or greens to create interest and encourage exploration. Because the nuggets are smaller, they’re easy to sample for younger birds or birds transitioning to new foods. If you’re working with multiple birds, monitor intake to adjust portions as needed.
Feeding ideas and real-life scenarios
- Morning routine: mix with fruit slices like mango or berries to invite curiosity and consistent mindfulness about meals.
- Travel or shows: portion into small containers for easy transport and quick offering on the go.
- Weaning or training: the smaller nugget size helps gradually introduce new textures without overwhelming sensitive beaks.

Availability is in 3 lb bags, with six bags per case to support steady supply in homes or aviaries.
