Vitamin compound for feather formation for all birds.
NEKTON-Biotin supports a smooth molting process and feather regeneration. NEKTON-Biotin contains all essential vitamins, amino acids, minerals, trace elements and 200,000 µg biotin/kg. NEKTON-Biotin gives birds a smooth and shiny plumage. The majority of plumage damage that occurs when keeping birds can be exclusively attributed to poor nutrition. Because the plumage consists of substance that is high in protein, a particularly rich and balanced protein diet for the bird is a prerequisite for forming an immaculate plumage. A daily diet must contain sufficient vitamins, minerals and trace elements for a functioning metabolism. Majority of animal losses that occur during the molting period is based on a lack of or unbalanced protein intake and/or an insufficient supply of vitamins and minerals. The unfavorable ratio of amino acids in most plant-based feed has been explicitly considered and balanced with regard to the composition of NEKTON-Biotin.
No other multivitamin compound should be administered whilst using NEKTON-Biotin. NEKTON-Biotin is soluble in cold water and can be administered easily via drinking water or soft feed. The protein ingested with the feed is dispersed in the bird's gastrointestinal tract in the individual bases of protein (amino acids) and in turn builds up these naturally produced bases of protein, which it needs for plumage development.
Plumage development when nestling and plumage regeneration in molting birds are very complex processes and are linked with particularly high stress on the animal's entire body.
In cases of heavily damaged plumage, double, or even triple the dosage of NEKTON-Biotin can be given to begin with, until the first signs of plumage regeneration are visible. After that, the normal dosage will suffice until plumage regeneration is complete.
A green measuring spoon is attached to every bottle of NEKTON-Biotin.
Please note that NEKTON-Biotin should not be administered during breeding, as it can cause disturbances in the incubation process.

can prevent damage to the animals‘ health that can result from a lack of these vital substances. These support the course of the metabolic processes in the bird organism and increase the utilization of all the nutrients taken in with the feed. This strengthens the bird‘s defenses and improves performance.
Vitamin E has several functions in animals, but its key function is to protect the cells from oxidative damage - it promotes the protection of cell membranes and the detoxification of pollutants occurring in cell metabolism.
It is also involved in cell respiration and thus plays a very important role in energy metabolism. It has also been shown that vitamin E supplementation improves animal fertility (especially sperm quality in males and egg fertility in females) and increases embryo survival and viability of hatched young.
In addition, vitamin E promotes antibody formation and has a positive effect on the immune status of the organism. Vitamin E deficiency can cause reduced fertility, sex drive and hatching.
Finally, a lack of vitamin E particularly impairs muscle (white muscle disease) and heart functions.
It is ideal in combination with NEKTON-Calcium-Plus for balanced breeding and to prevent calcium deficiency (egg breakage / egg quality).

NEKTON-E has a positive effect on the entire cell metabolism, anti-body production, immunity and defense. NEKTON-E ensures protection of the cell membranes and preserves viability of the cells in body tissue. Furthermore, it decontaminates any harmful substances attacking cell metabolism, is involved in cell respiration and plays an important role in energy metabolism. Stress caused by heat, cold, etc., as well as intestinal parasites and infectious diseases require a higher supply of vitamin E. Vitamin E is also vitally important for building up hormones, and a lack of it can cause reduced fertility, sex drive and hatching. Finally, a lack of vitamin E particularly impairs muscle (white muscle disease) and heart functions and the impairs the health of the brain, liver, gonads, vascular system and offspring.
Administration of NEKTON-E should be started at least three weeks before breeding. Please note that in bird breeding, no more NEKTON-E is given as soon as the first egg is laid and the female sits on the eggs. It could cause disruption in the incubation process by a drive in the male that is too strong.
After completion of the treatment continue with the daily vitamin supply of NEKTON-S and NEKTON-MSA.

Pet feed supplement for the yellow plumage color.
NEKTON-Gelb is a pet feed supplement to intensify color for yellow areas in the feather. It was specially developed to support during the molting. NEKTON-Gelb prevents feather colors from fading and can help to support the bird’s health in a natural way during the molting period.
NEKTON-Gelb contains ground marigold flowers. Tagetes is a natural product that contains various carotenoids and can intensify the yellow plumage color. Carotinoids are of vital importance for colored feathers. The main pigment of the marigold flowers is xanthophyll lutein. Feeding experiments have shown that the yellow plumage in birds only occurs when lutein is ingested with the food.
Carotenoids are not only known for their coloring effect, they are also awarded physiological effects (as biological antioxidants or immenstimulierende effects). Tagetes also contains active ingredients that are involved in the formation of new plumage.
In addition to brewer's yeast,
NEKTON-Gelb
contains brewer's yeast cell walls, which consist of mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) and ß-glucans. These ingredients can have prebiotic effects on the beneficial microflora of the intestine and can naturally promote a balanced intestinal flora.In addition to brewer's yeast, NEKTON-Gelb contains brewer's yeast cell walls, which consist of mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) and ß-glucans. These ingredients can have prebiotic effects on the beneficial microflora of the intestine and can naturally promote a balanced intestinal flora.
The need for individual amino acids during the moult is particularly high. An insufficient supply of the bird with amino acids can lead to a delayed change of feathers as well as disturbances of the feather morphology (such as, for example, curved or very soft feathers).
NEKTON-Gelb
contains 18 amino acids, which can support the formation of new plumage during the strenuous moulting period.
In order to obtain an optimal coloring,
NEKTON-Gelb
should be used with the beginning of the molting.
A daily diet must contain sufficient vitamins, minerals and trace elements for a functioning metabolism and therefore a combination of
NEKTON-Gelb
with NEKTON-Biotin or NEKTON-S is recommended.
Complete feed for all Lori species and Bat Parrots
Complete feed concentrate nectar-eating parrots.
NEKTON-Lori
is a balanced complete feed for all species of parrot that largely feed off natural liquid food in the form of flower nectar, plant sap and pollen. The composition of NEKTON-Lori's most high-quality ingredients is strictly oriented toward natural parameters. Furthermore, NEKTON-Lori takes into account the special structure of these birds' digestive tracts, broken down proteins (present as amino acids) and focuses on the direct availability of easy to digest carbohydrates. An optimum mixture is the results of over 100 individual components supplemented by specific fatty acids and enriched with all essential substances (vitamins, trace elements) as well as minerals and major elements. No other feed has to be supplied.No other vitamin compound should be administered whilst using NEKTON-Lori.
Supplementation with pieces of fruit and vegetable is possible without any problems, also so that "gnawing" and activity are not neglected. Nutritional requirements are completely fulfilled by NEKTON-Lori.
As a result of the high protein content as well as the high ambient temperature, it should be noted that the feed becomes acidified after a certain time. This happens faster, the higher the initial microbial content of the equipment and feeders used to prepare the feed. Therefore, it is of great importance that intensive hygiene measures are carried out continuously to reduce the number of germs at the feeding.
Feeding bowls and any equipment or bathing bowls, etc. that come into contact with the food during preparation should be disinfected.
Do not use a mixer or whisk to mix the food, as the vitamins can be mechanically damaged in this way. Only use treated, clean water! Dosage 10 g (1 measuring spoon) of
NEKTON-Lori
in 100 ml of lukewarm (25°C) water. Only serve the amount of nutrient solution that your bird ingests in one day.
Small and sensitive species of lorikeet (e.g. plum-faced lorikeet) and butterflies, that only ingest nectar, should be served our special NEKTON-Nektar-Plus. A measuring spoon is attached to each bottle of NEKTON-Lori. 10g of NEKTON-Lori corresponds to one measuring spoon.
Complementary feed for ornamental birds, reptiles & amphibians
Highly-effective mineral compound for pet birds, reptiles and amphibians.
NEKTON-MSA is a high-quality mineral blend supplemented with vitamin D3, major/trace elements and amino acids.
NEKTON-MSA
supports and powers the metabolism and bones, prevents rickets, activates mineral conversion and helps to compensate for the damage caused by calcium deficiency.
NEKTON-MSA
covers the increasing need for minerals in breeding/rearing, protects against malabsorption, increases defense against infection and prevents fragile eggs in birds.
NEKTON-MSA
supports good development of bone structures in young animals. It is especially important for your animals for preventing later diseases caused by a deficiency of vitamins and minerals.
NEKTON-MSA
is not soluble in water and can be mixed without any problems with soft food or bird feed.
Minerals (major and trace elements) are substances that count as essential , indispensable components in supplied feed for the metabolism of all animals. They must always be present in feed as they are always excreted by the animal. As the term "trace element" suggests, supply of these substances is only necessary in very small amounts (traces).
It is important to supply an animal with a mixture of minerals, which is not only determined by the number and amount of individual substances, but rather by the balance in the composition, oriented towards the needs of the animal's body. Major and trace elements, vitamins and amino acids must support each other and their impact may not have a negative effect. These criteria were taken into consideration when composing
NEKTON-MSA
so that the owner can provide his animals with these elements in the best possible way.
Complete feed for sunbirds and butterflies
Complete feed for sunbirds and butterflies.
The composition of NEKTON-Nektar-Plus is oriented towards individual components of the hummingbirds' high requirements for nutrients and substances, where at the same time, NEKTON-Nektar-Plus
has also become an excellent food mixture for sensitive sunbirds. The carbohydrates' composition reproduces flower nectar - which is the preferred source of nourishment for hummingbirds and sunbirds - and thus supplies these animals' metabolism with energy. Supplemented by vitamins, proteins, fats, major and trace elements, a balanced mixture emerges which contains all essential elements for these birds. We recommend a feeding tube for feeding. This ensures an extended shelf life of the important food components. A filling quantity of 40 ml is sufficient even to provide larger species with a single feeding per day. Under no circumstances should open feeding bowls be used, as this makes contaminations of these animals' feathers unavoidable.
Do not use a mixer or whisk to mix the nutrient solution as the vitamins can be mechanically damaged in this way. Only use treated, clean water!
The prepared solution is put into the feeding tube and covers the daily requirements of 2-3 hummingbirds or sunbirds. Increasing the amount of
NEKTON-Nektar-Plus
in the long-term can cause health damage to the birds. We recommend a feeding tube for feeding, which consists of brown Plexiglas and is almost fully impervious to UV light. This ensures an extended shelf life of the important food components. The rounded, sloping base on the inside of the tube enables the bird to ingest the food up to the very last bit. A filling quantity of 40 ml is sufficient even to provide larger species with a single feeding per day. Under no circumstances should open feeding bowls be used, as this makes contaminations of these animals' feathers unavoidable. As a result of the high protein content as well as the high ambient temperature, it should be noted that the food become acidified after a certain time. This happens faster, the higher the initial microbial content of the equipment and feeders used to prepare the food. Therefore, it is of great importance that intensive hygiene measures are carried out continuously to reduce the number of germs at the feeding.
Feeding tubes and any equipment or bathing bowls, etc. that come into contact with the food during preparation should be sprayed with disinfect after thorough cleaning and can be refilled or used.
Please note: It is possible that the sunbirds' feathers become faded. To avoid this, which can also happen to healthy and vibrant birds, we recommend adding NEKTON-R to the food of red feathered birds and NEKTON-Gelb to the food of yellow feathered birds.

In order to increase the quality of NEKTON-Orange, we focused on great value natural components.
NEKTON-Orange
contains pure brewer's yeast & yeast cell walls and combines the advantages of the prebiotic and immunostimulatory effects of yeast cell walls with valuable nutrients of brewer's yeast. Brewer's yeast is one of the most valuable products of all because it is a combination of health-promoting nutrients. These include essential amino acids (such as methionine, which is particularly important for birds), B vitamins, various minerals, trace elements and enzymes. The nutrients contained in the brewer's yeast have a positive effect on the bird organism and are important components for new plumage, which are increasingly needed during molting. Brewer's yeast can strengthen the bird's immune system and can help support the intestinal flora.
In addition to brewer's yeast, NEKTON-Orange contains brewer's yeast cell walls, which consist of mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) and ß-glucans. These ingredients can have prebiotic effects on the beneficial microflora of the intestine and can naturally promote a balanced intestinal flora. Orange canaries resulted from a cross between yellow and red canaries and keep the yellow xanthophyll lutein and red canthaxanthin together in the feather. NEKTON-Orange contains ground marigold flowers, which intensify the yellow basic color of the orange canaries and the dyes canthaxantin & beta-carotin, which cause the red plumage. This creates an intense orange plumage color in the canaries.

NEKTON-R prevents feather colors from fading and can help to support the bird’s health in a natural way during the molting period.
NEKTON-R contains pure brewer's yeast & yeast cell walls and combines the advantages of the prebiotic and immunestimulating effects of yeast cell walls with valuable nutrients of brewer's yeast.
On the one hand, brewer's yeast is a high quality source of protein, on the other hand a valuable supplier of various nutrients and active substances. The nutrients contained in the brewer's yeast have a positive effect on the bird organism and are important components for new plumage, which are increasingly needed during molting. Brewer's yeast can strengthen the bird's immune system and can help support the intestinal flora.
NEKTON-R
is administered in the drinking water or soft feed at the beginning of molting/rearing until the end of molting or as soon as the bird's color is fully restored.In addition to brewer's yeast,
NEKTON-R
contains brewer's yeast cell walls, which consist of mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) and ß-glucans. They can reduce the number of harmful bacteria in bird's intestine and increase the number of beneficial bacteria.
The need for individual amino acids during the moult is particularly high. An insufficient supply of the bird with amino acids can lead to a delayed change of feathers as well as disturbances of the feather morphology (such as, for example, curved or very soft feathers).
NEKTON-R
contains 18 amino acids, which can support the formation of new plumage during the strenuous moulting period.
A daily diet must contain sufficient vitamins, minerals and trace elements for a functioning metabolism and therefore a combination of NEKTON-R with NEKTON-Biotin or NEKTON-S is recommended.
The colorant used is identical to the natural substance and is thus physiologically safe. It is also used in the food industry to color food products. Carotinoides are of vital importance for colored feathers.

Multivitamin supplement for all ornamental bird species.
Contains 18 amino acids.
NEKTON-S
contains all essential vitamins and is additionally enriched with amino acids, minerals and trace elements. An undersupply of vitamins (hypovitaminosis) is hardly noticeable in the bird, but if it lasts for a long time it leads to considerable damage to health and even to the premature loss of the animal. About 90% of all diseases in birds are caused by inadequate feeding.
NEKTON-S
supports the metabolic processes in the bird organism and significantly increases the usability of all absorbed nutrients. NEKTON-S
is administered daily through the drinking water and is very popular with birds.Ideal in combination with NEKTON-MSA (mineral preparation) and NEKTON-E (for breeding).Vitamins are essential nutrients. They cause the necessary breakdown and build-up of the nutrients (protein, carbohydrates, fats) in the bird organism and thus ensure the orderly and perfect overall metabolism.With the supplementary feed NEKTON-S, the bird owner has a preparation at his disposal which, with its high content of vitamins, amino acids and minerals, is tailored to the special needs of the birds and prevents damage to the health of the animals that can result from the lack of these active ingredients. Thanks to the high-quality ingredients, the uptake and utilization of the nutrients ingested with the feed are not only supplemented, but also improved and thus upgraded. This strengthens the defenses of the bird and improves performance. In times when the bird is stressed, for example through implementation, newcomers, breeding, moulting, etc., the dose of
NEKTON-S
can be adapted to the changed situation and temporarily increased, or even doubled, without any problems.To improve fertility, we recommend the avian breeder to combine NEKTON-S with NEKTON-E (starting approx. 3 weeks before breeding). To prevent mineral deficiencies and to improve the bird's bony structures, we recommend combining
NEKTON-S
with NEKTON-MSA.
