Water

WATER

  • Water makes up about 60% of the composition of the bird’s body.
  • Birds can survive for a long time, even two to three days, without consuming feed, but suffer very quickly, within 12 hours, if there is a shortage of water.
  • A free supply of cool, fresh, clean, potable water should therefore be ensured throughout the day.
