FONIOGOLD® is a unique and 100% natural bird seed with an exceptionally high
nutritional value.
Many top breeders attribute medically effective properties
to it and it is used to combat coccidiosis.
In addition to proteins, vitamins and minerals, it contains many amino acids. These
directly influence the increase in energy and strength and have a regenerative effect
on the birds. The essential amino acid methionine is present in almost twice the
quantity of a hen's egg (!) and also counteracts fatty degeneration.
FONIOGOLD® is a labour-intensive African seed, only 500 kg are harvested per
hectare and 1 gram contains approx. 2000 seeds. If stored in a dry place, it can
be kept for several years (!) before it loses its germination capacity.
FONIOGOLD® is grown organically without the use of chemical pesticides.
Due to the small grain size, it is best offered separately.
This is a natural and wholesome bird food, so overfeeding is not possible.
