All of our OWD daily diets come in vacuum-packed 1# packages. The shelf life is up to one year from the date of production if kept sealed and in a dark, cool and dry pantry. Each package label indicates the "Guaranteed Analysis" performed by a 3rd-party food testing lab, a "Use-by" date, and an internal verification code (IVC) to designate individual batches.

Step One is not being sold at this time! ONLY purchase the single packages IF your bird is ALREADY on this program. Any new customers purchasing and placing your bird on this program will encounter a full refund - we cannot accept any new customers for this particular item at this time. Thank you!

Your first purchase of this food must include *Step One with the Instruction Manual. It is required reading for those treating feather destroyers. When placing your first order for Dirty Birdie Detox you must purchase the 3# & Required Manual option.

The "Mutilation Syndrome Program," our feather destroyer's program is in-depth and requires dedicated commitment.

We require that you bird progress through our program as intentionally designed; 6-8 weeks on Dirty Birdie Detox-Step 1 before progressing to Better Feathers, the 2nd part of the program. The instruction manual contains vital information regarding this program and must be read carefully to fully understand the program and the goals of the program. (3 to 4 pounds should last most birds about 6 to 8 weeks) 

*****Liver Pur ™ (and Uric Pur™ if your bird has been diagnosed with high uric acid levels) should always be added to a bird's diet who is placed on our feather destroyer's diet. Both of these should be fed during the first phase of the program known as "Dirty Birdie Detox."  Parasite Pur™ is also our recommendation during the 1st phase of the program, but optional.

Purpose of this Exclusive Detoxing Food:  

This food is intended to help the overall digestive system of your bird thoroughly detox from and all foods that may have contributed to "avian leaky gut syndrome" and the symptoms that follow. 

To detox, any living creature must eliminate many foods before replenishing the unhealthy gut flora with new, healthy gut flora. We have learned through our clinical tests that many feather destroyers/mutilators have extreme unhealthy gut flora due to never receiving their parents' crop food, being hand-raised on highly processed foods, transitioned to high-heat processed foods as an adolescent and/or receiving any pharmaceuticals, especially antibiotics when they might become ill. It is for this reason that a bird MUST go through deep detox to begin anew. 

Neurotransmitters in the brain begin developing in the digestive tract nourished by the gut flora in the tract. If the gut flora is unhealthy, and/or leaky gut is taking place it only stands to reason that the neurotransmitters will be unhealthy causing the bird to think and act incorrectly. 

Our purpose is to help flush out bad gut flora and then regenerate and replenish with healthy gut flora. We believe our company to be the first to understand the Mutilation Syndrome (feather destruction) in exotic birds and to develop an entire program to help a bird return to a somewhat new and healthy homeostasis. 

This program first and foremost is designed to help reduce and potentially eliminate feather destruction; secondly to help your bird grow feathers. Some birds will never grow in new feathers due to permanent follicle damage. However, we have witnessed that birds who have been on this program for over 2 to 6 years may, indeed begin growing feathers where they have been bald for many, many years!
