Aussie Finch Forum

I tried to get a comparison online of Tummyrite Plus by Applied Nutrition vs Solaminovit by Allfarm, but I can't find anything that compares them. So can anyone help me?

The reason I ask is that I use Tummyrite Plus and I am very happy with it, but I am getting some Blue Gouldians and Solaminovit is recommended. I don't think I should use both, but it looks like Tummyrite Plus already covers the necessary vitamins and amino acids? Thanks for any help.

Never heard of either of them.
By birds get lots of natural greens and thrive.

Soluminavit is used to help blue gouldians at an early stage in their life.
The main vitamins are vitamins A and E for essential health for blue gouldians and it has been proven for early life.
A and E vitamins can be bought separately in liquid forms from Alfarm products. If tummyrite has a good proportion of A and E vitamins you shouldn't have any problems.
Or just buy the liquid equivalent A E and add separately in soaked or sprouted seed fed.
Get the amount of A and E included on the label of both tummyrite and soluminavit components and compare them. Cheers

I did try to look at the ingredients and compare them, but Tummyrite don't state the numbers for each additive. On the other hand, I do like the convenience of it being added to the seed they sell.

Tony try this one but they don't mention vitamins but my mate uses this for his blues.

Thanks Craig. Do you think it matters if they are also eating the seed with Tummyrite in it? Does it matter if they have both? Cheers.

Finches can be over dosed with vitamins same as humans. The symptoms of over dosing is yellow/orange droppings same as yellow urine in humans.
Finches only need very minute doses of vitamins so if I were you just try the tummyrite and see how you go.
Adult birds fully coloured shouldn't need the vitamins it's only needed for their young in the first 6 months of life as it is fed to them by the parents through the seed and after they fledge to feed on it themselves.

I use a codliver wheat germ oil blend for my blue gouldians, they are extremely healthy and breed well.
All these powders and over the top supplements just make the birds weak imo and over dependant.
