Zoo Med Avian Calcium

Zoo Med Avian Calcium

Overview

Zoo Med’s Avian Calcium is a pure, bioavailable calcium supplement for all species of birds. Formulated with precipitated calcium carbonate, it is white in color and essentially lead-free, unlike impure gray calcium sources such as oyster shell. Its unique particle shape provides an extremely high surface area, making calcium more readily absorbed by your bird’s body. Calcium is essential for strong bones, egg production, blood clotting, and other vital functions, making Avian Calcium a trusted choice for bird owners and breeders.
