Christy has a question about our favorite vitamin
Hi. Just wondering which vitamin D supplement you would recommend. I have a blind cockatoo and I don’t have bird lighting.
I’m not sure the bird’s lighting I used before didn’t cause her cataracts.Â
But she is also older.Â
Can birds get too much vitamin D?
I thoroughly. enjoy your weekly newsletters.Â
Thanks
Christy
Appreciate the kind words, Christy,
First off, it’s important to note, you-are-not-alone

It’s unlikely your lighting caused your Too’s cataracts

Not our first vitamin D Rodeo, here is some of what we learned about Vitamin D and bird lighting:

To your point simply dissolving Avi-Vera Bird Vitamins by Lafebers 1.25 oz – Windy City Parrot in your cockatoos daily water is all you need.
We prefill 1-liter bottles with the solution as we refresh 8 watering dishes – twice daily
BestÂ
