Powerful liquid probiotic supplement for birds to support digestive function, increase breeding vigour, chick survival, and chick growth.
The digestive system of birds is very easily upset. Any slight stress causes a reduction in the blood supply to the gut. The biochemical conditions then change reducing the effectiveness of the gut and increasing the risk of infection by harmful bacteria. Keeping the gut topped up with beneficial digestive bacteria keeps the bad bugs under control and ensures that as much of the food as possible is actually absorbed into the bloodstream. This is the job of a probiotic.
Many bird keepers and vets have now demonstrated to themselves the superiority of Potent Brew over the traditional, freeze dried probiotics. Potent Brew works so well because it contains bacteria that act immediately once they get into the gut (they don’t have to rehydrate themselves like dried probiotics do) and it also contains enzyme components for active food digestion. However only buy Potent Brew in small quantities, as it is a live product with a short shelf life (4-6 months) and ideally it should be stored in the fridge.
If you want to add Potent Brew to water, then it is best to use bottled water and here is why:
Tap water would be fine, as long as there isn’t a lot of chlorine in it, as this will kill the good bacteria in the Potent Brew.
Bottled water would be better, but you do need to be careful with the type of bottled water. So try not to use distilled water, as again this would suck out all of the nutrients from the good bacteria and then they would die. Also try not to use bottled water that says “pure” in the title, as this could be reverse osmosis water and would be the same as distilled water.
If your birds are eating moist foods or an eggfood, then it would be more economical for you and guaranteed that your birds would take it by adding it to these foods.
Potent Brew stimulates efficient gut function and improves the bird’s ability to absorb nutrition, therefore it contributes to bringing adult birds into breeding condition. When young chicks hatch they have no bacteria in the gut. They rely on their parents to supply them with their food. Potent Brew in the food starts the chicks digestive system off very quickly ensuring rapid early growth and excellent resistance to otherwise dangerous digestive issues.

Perfect for controlling gut health
I've been purchasing potent brew for a few years now to help keep my budgie's sensitive gut under control. He suffers with wretching and nausea and potent brew almost eliminates this. Just a couple of drops in his daily water and it does the trick!

First Class Product
I find this product excellent at bringing round birds looking a bit out of sorts. Even older budgies and cockatiels respond well and start breeding. Wouldn't be without it.

Cockatiel
We recently got a new tiel, male around 3 years old. He went downhill fast after we bought him lost all his weight stopped singing looked very sorry for himself. I brough him in put him in our large brooder for warmth and gave him guardian angel, it got him through a few days but was no where near better 3 days on potent brew was alert and eating readily. A week inside with us on observation then back into the aviary. Strong alert and singing away happy as larry I highly recomend.

Excellent birds r thriving on it

Very good
I Always use this when hand rearing young / young birds in nest or to support any bird which is ill or stressed (in addition to guardian angel). I have come to regard it as an essential in these circumstances. I use it with feast egg food or in the hand rearing mix with cooled boiled water so the bacteria in it are not harmed by chemicals in tap water.

no bowel problems
I have used this product over the years. It cures loose droppings, and birds eat it very willingly. I would not be without it when the birds are breeding.

Birds perk up
I have canaries, whenever they are a bit quiet for a while and showing some signs of anxiety or slight tail bobbing or puffiness I use potent brew for a few days. It really works! My female canary was the runt of the litter and a nest baby for longer than the others, she used to sit around puffed up even when out of the nest, this sorted her out within a week! My boy was showing some signs of weakness or respitory struggles and I gave him this for 2 weeks, one day on one off, he's so much perkier and happier now thanks to potent brew!
