GroGel Bird Starter - .40 per bird if desired
The greatest nutritional needs of newly hatched birds are water, carbohydrates and protein. We have found a product, GroGel, that has been especially formulated to meet these needs. It also aids their immune and gastrointestinal systems. GroGel is a super hydrating gel that is bright green to attract the birds and will hold the nutrients and moisture until consumed.. We suggest adding this small investment in the your bird's future health at the time of ordering.
