Vetafarm Calcivet – Liquid Calcium & Vitamin D3 Supplement
Give your feathered friends the calcium support they need to stay strong, healthy and ready for breeding season!
Vetafarm Calcivet is a specially formulated liquid calcium supplement enriched with Vitamin D3, designed to support healthy bones, strong eggshells and the development of growing chicks.
Calcium plays an important role in your bird's overall wellbeing, particularly during breeding and egg laying when nutritional demands are at their highest. The added Vitamin D3 helps birds absorb and utilise calcium more effectively, making Calcivet a valuable addition to the feeding routine of seed-eating birds and breeding pairs.
Whether you're preparing your birds for breeding, supporting egg-laying hens or helping young chicks develop strong bones, Calcivet provides an easy and convenient way to supplement their calcium intake.
