FeatherUp! Vitamin for Feather Growth, Molting & Plucking

FeatherUp! provides biotin, vitamin A, B vitamins, and essential minerals that support healthy skin and feather development. It's especially useful when a bird's diet may be missing important nutrients.

If your parrot is feather plucking or barbering, FeatherUp! can help provide nutritional support for replacement feathers. It won't stop the behavior itself, so identifying the underlying cause remains important.

Feather improvement takes time because damaged feathers don't repair themselves. You need to wait for healthy replacement feathers to grow.

Over several weeks or months, you may notice smoother, better-looking new feathers as your bird molts or regrows damaged plumage. Results depend on your bird's diet, feather follicle health, and whether the underlying cause of feather damage has been addressed.

FeatherUp! is designed to supplement a bird's diet when additional vitamins and minerals are appropriate.

Birds eating primarily fortified pellets may already receive adequate nutrients and may not need another multivitamin. If your parrot eats a mixed diet or takes other supplements, check with your avian veterinarian before adding FeatherUp! to avoid excessive vitamin or mineral intake.

FeatherUp! contains biotin, beta carotene (a vitamin A precursor), vitamins B, C, D3, E, and K, plus minerals including zinc, iron, manganese, copper, and iodine.

These nutrients support normal metabolism, skin health, and feather development. FeatherUp! supplies vitamins and minerals, not the protein or amino acids that form the feather itself.

Growing replacement feathers requires adequate dietary protein, essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.

Biotin and other B vitamins support normal nutrient metabolism, while zinc contributes to protein synthesis and tissue development. FeatherUp! provides these micronutrients to help support new feather growth.

However, nutritional support alone won't resolve plucking caused by medical, behavioral, or environmental problems. An avian veterinarian can help identify the cause.

Molting increases your parrot's nutritional demands because growing feathers requires protein, amino acids, and supporting micronutrients.

Important nutrients include biotin, B vitamins, vitamin A, zinc, and other essential minerals. FeatherUp! provides these micronutrients to help support normal feather development, particularly when a bird's diet is incomplete.

Birds already eating a nutritionally balanced diet may not need additional supplements during a molt.

Yes. Seed-heavy diets are often low in vitamin A and certain minerals, while picky eaters may reject the vegetables and balanced foods that provide these nutrients.

FeatherUp! helps supplement some of those missing vitamins and minerals while you work toward a healthier diet.

It isn't a substitute for balanced nutrition, since seed-based diets may also lack essential amino acids and other nutrients that FeatherUp! doesn't supply.

Sprinkle the appropriate amount of FeatherUp! over moist bird chop, mashed sweet potato, oatmeal, or another favorite bird-safe soft food. Moisture helps the powder stick, making it easier for your bird to consume.

Don't add FeatherUp! to drinking water.

If your bird refuses food with supplements, start with a tiny introductory sprinkle and gradually build acceptance using praise and positive attention.
