Dr Greg Harrison developed Harrison’s in the mid 1980’s. He only used Organic ingredients in his products, that have been certified by the USDA (US Department of Agriculture.)
About
Dr Harrison has worked with animals all his life. He grew up in a farming community in Iowa and then earned a degree in Veterinary Medicine. He opened a small veterinary practice in Florida, before moving onto working in a zoo and small animal park as a consultant.
Greg owned over 150 Parrots and wanted to develop a better diet for them. Together with other avian vets he created the very first Organic complete food for Parrots. Dr Harrison remains the main developer of the products and uses his 30+ years of experience to produce the finest food for Parrots. Greg believes the most important thing owners can do for their Parrots is to feed them properly.
Harrison’s Complete Food
The complete foods provide your Parrot with balanced nutrition. This means your bird doesn’t need to eat anything else whilst on the diet. Harrison’s food contains no artificial preservatives. Before changing a bird’s diet though, we recommend you seek the advice of an avian vet.
The Harrison’s High Potency Coarse Food is available in a 1lb, 5lb and 25lb bag. The ingredients are all whole grain and are suitable for human consumption. High potency food should by owners during stressful periods in your bird’s life, such as wearing, illness and breeding.
It could also be used as the main diet for African Greys and Large Macaws because of their increased nutritional requirements.
Fine
The High Potency Fine Foodis better suited to smaller Parrot species with additional nutritional requirements, perhaps when undergoing difficult times like moulting and ill health. Again all the ingredients are whole grain and 100% Organic. Ready to buy in a 1lb or 5lb bag.
The High Potency Super Fine 1lb Food is finely grained pellets for small Parrots that are suffering ill health, are rearing chicks and have other extra nutritional requirements. It is the smallest nugget size available.
Lifetime
The Adult Lifetime Coarse Food could be a staple diet for most Parrots and Parrot like birds (aside from African Greys and Large Macaws who require the high potency diet.
This is available in a 1lb, 5lb and 25lb bag.
The Adult Lifetime Fine Food is suitable for most small to medium Parrots. Free from all artificial pesticides, fertilisers and preservatives, like all Harrison’s foods, the fine pellets are whole grain and are fit for human consumption. Available in a 1lb or 5lb bag.
Super Fine
The Adult Lifetime Super Fine Food is the smallest nugget size we offer, so ideal for smaller birds like Lovebirds and Budgies. The fine pellets are all nutritionally complete and Organic. This is a 1lb bag.
