Tropican gets seal of approval from Wing and a Prayer



Wild bird and owl haven rehabilitation centre, Wing and a Prayer, have given Hagen’s Tropican Breeding Mash their seal of approval in the rehabilitation of injured, sick and orphaned birds.

Tropican is the only formulated food line that most birds will need in their lifetime, from a newly hatched baby chick to a mature, breeding adult, making it ideal for bringing birds back to the peak of their health.

Wing and a Prayer rehabilitates on average 650 birds a year, with many requiring hand feeding due to their juvenile nature and inability to self feed. Tropican Breeding Mash has proven to be a superior product, not only in providing the nutrients that birds need to grow, but also for promoting excellent feather condition during their rehabilitation.

The versatile formulation of the product enables it to be used as a syringe based feed for pigeons and collard doves, but also as a main element in mixes made up for stick feeding smaller birds such as finches and sparrows.

Richard Gallop, Manager at Wing and a Prayer, said: "We use Tropican hand rearing mash as we find it to be a superior product to some other brands. The formula is versatile to use and provides all the nutrients that our birds need to grow. I have absolute trust in the Hagen brand and continue to use Tropican Breeding Mash to ensure our birds are rehabilitated as quickly as possible.”
