Safe for pet birds, it is especially beneficial for budgies, canaries, finches and other small birds.

If you suspect your bird is in distress, consult with your avian veterinarian. Activated charcoal can affect absorption of some medications, always consult with your vet regarding your bird’s need for activated charcoal.

Why and when to feed activated carbon to your bird?
At one time, Bird charcoal was included in every bird starter kit on the market. Today it is not as readily available, but it is an indispensable product that should be bought when acquiring a new companion bird. We recommend to always have activated charcoal on-hand, in your avian first aid kit in case of accidental ingestion of a toxin. There is no contraindication to giving a small amount of activated charcoal, which is often what a veterinary hospital would do upon suspicion of the bird having ingested a paint flake, lead or another toxic substance.
