I found a breeder who is distributing lots of kinds of very good liquids (vitamins, minerals, ...) for birds. I bought some of them - vitamins, minerals, special acid water (prevence of bacteria)

It's called AQUAMID - I think this company is czech

 

But I'm wondering, does someone use vitamins, etc. in liquid form as well?

I've heard it's much better then powder form.

HI, I all the suppliments I currently use are in a liquid form. I give them in their water, in soaked soft food and they can also be given as a crop dose. The main ones I use are a multi vitamin and a calcium suppliment.

I use calcivet, Multi vitamins, Probotics and Coccivet.

I also use the Aloe Vera and Wormer.

A breeder & shower (she no longer shows or breeds) told me that she rarely had a sick bird and about all she used was a bit of iodised salt in the water.

So I guess the liquid form is good

I give them minerals now - because they are molting and it helps them a lot

No need even to use the iodised salt. A lot of show breeders are using aqueous iodine in the water of their birds for the properties of the iodine and its benefits to the birds. I have just begun putting a few drops in my birds water also.

The company also has some liquid for breeding birds - it should help the eggs to be fertile, makes the male's sperm better quality, reduces stress, etc.

I got some for my tiels (who just had a baby) and it smels really nice - it has apple juice in it

 

And after reading here about splayed legs, I asked my vet and she gave me liquid calcium - it's actually very cheap here

It sounds like you have a good vet. Liquid calcium is fantastic. You can use it in their water or in soft food, like soaked oats and eggfood.

I just started using the Multi Vit supplement however it is powder form...

Looking to see benefits ( no doubt there will be)

 

I am looking for the Liquid Calcium as the vet doesn't have any on stock for 3 weeks

I use Calcivet and Aviclens for the water both products from Veta Farm which you can look up on the internet and jion or just order and I also use Avi-mite which is vitamins and minerals & amino acid supplement in their water a couple times aweek

 

I also use mineral supplement from golden cob in my breeding cages which is powder form i put this in finger draws and they eat it if they need it.

I use a powdered vitamin Nekton-S in their water and put added calcium in those of them them that LOVE to lay eggs for no particular reason.

Yes, she is very good . I think the calcium is actually for humans - it's like sirup. But I trust her that it's okay for birds. She said I can put it in their water or drop in their beak. After my tiel Jasmine lyed an egg from a perch (the egg shell was quite soft) I put a couple of drops in her beak and the next eggs were nice and hard

It seems to be the same thing we have for our birds Zebra. Ours is in syrup too. Seems to be a glucose suspension syrup

It must be good then . I think they like it, it's probably sweet. It's just soooo sticky

Yep...thats the stuff. Good to give to birds who are sick also for the glucose helps them

I was curious does the liquid vitamins and calcium flavor the water? I was thinking about using them, but my birds have never had them before and was curious if they wouldn't drink their water because of it.

It's okay Shamrock, the birds DO drink their water. But a lot of people put their liquid supplements in their softfood for their birds...like in eggfood etc.

Yes they will drink and even bathe in it I was wondering about it too because I supplement with them for Merlin and he is totally okay

One thing to remember is that budgies can go 42 days with out water.. So if they don't drink it straight away, don't worry too much.
