Lactose Free Bird Food

For those who have never owned a bird or do not know much about birds the search for lactose free bird food can seem pretty silly.  What many people who have never owned birds do not realize is that birds are extremely lactose intolerant.  A bird that is unknowingly given large amounts of milk or milk protein can get extremely ill if they are unknowingly fed large amounts of milk or milk protein.

Unfortunately many bird seeds that are currently on the market do contain trace amounts of milk protein.  Many bird owners have fed their birds these types of seeds without knowing that they contained milk protein and then have been completely confused as to why their bird suddenly became ill. 

In order to avoid this it is extremely important that all bird owners take a moment and carefully read the ingredients of any bird seed they purchase.  Do not simply take the word of a pet store or chain store selling the bird seed.  Many of these companies do not realize that some brands of bird seed contain milk protein and others do not know which brands contain milk protein and which do not.

When searching for lactose free (Fertiggerichte bestellen) bird food one of the first people spoken to should always be your birds’ veterinarian.  If your bird has never been to the vet or you can not get in touch with your own do not be afraid to call or visit another office. 

Many veterinarians have more information on the latest animal food products and will be able to tell you what bird seed is lactose free and which ones often cause trouble.  Even on the off chance the veterinarian in question does not have a ready answer regarding lactose free bird food they can often point you in the right direction.

Another great source of information is the internet.  There are many bird lover groups and forums on the internet that offer detailed information on the subject.  Of course there are web sites with the same knowledge but sometimes it is best to go to forums and online groups to actually discuss your concerns with people who know. 

Many forums will have at least one or two people with direct experience with your problem and, like veterinarians they will often have researched the most up to date information on any subject involving birds.  Also, by using a forum or group instead of a website, you will be able to ask questions and interact with those providing the information in an almost real-time environment. 

There are also many vegan bird seed varieties that are available which do not contain any milk proteins.  Quite a few veterinarians and groups will probably recommend this option for lactose free bird seed. These are usually found in health food stores are stores that boast organic products for sale.
