It provides complete everyday nutrition using certified organic grains, legumes and plant ingredients with no artificial preservatives.

Key Benefits

• Fine organic pellets developed for small to medium companion birds
• Complete adult maintenance diet for year-round balanced nutrition
• Certified organic ingredients for purity and natural quality
• Suitable for birds moving on from an appropriate Harrison’s High Potency formula
• Helps provide consistent nutrition without the selective feeding associated with seed-based diets

Who Is This Food For?

Suitable for healthy adult small to medium birds including:

• Budgies (parakeets)
• Cockatiels
• Lovebirds
• Quaker parrots
• Conures
• Lories
• Doves and pigeons
• Other similar-sized small to medium companion birds

Adult Lifetime formulas are generally introduced after a bird has completed at least 6 months on an appropriate Harrison’s High Potency formula.

Birds that are breeding, moulting, still growing or have increased nutritional requirements may need to remain on a High Potency formula. Some species and individual birds may also benefit from High Potency feeding for longer, so seek advice from an avian veterinarian where appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which birds is Harrison’s Adult Lifetime Fine for?
Harrison’s Adult Lifetime Fine is designed for healthy adult small to medium companion birds, including cockatiels, lovebirds, budgies, quakers, conures, lories, doves and pigeons. The fine pellet size is suited to birds that require something larger than Superfine but smaller than Harrison’s Coarse nuggets.

Is Adult Lifetime Fine a complete bird food?
Yes. Harrison’s Adult Lifetime Fine is a complete balanced maintenance food designed to provide the main nutritional foundation for healthy adult birds that are not breeding or moulting.

Does my bird need to be on High Potency first?
In most cases, Harrison’s recommend feeding an appropriate High Potency formula for at least 6 months before moving onto an Adult Lifetime maintenance diet. Birds with increased nutritional requirements may need to remain on High Potency for longer.

What is the difference between Adult Lifetime Fine and High Potency Fine?
Adult Lifetime Fine is the everyday maintenance formula for healthy adult birds with normal nutritional requirements. High Potency Fine provides a higher-nutrition formula intended for diet conversion, breeding, moulting, growing birds and other periods of increased nutritional demand.

What is the difference between Fine and Superfine?
Both are Adult Lifetime maintenance formulas, but the pellet size is different. Superfine has very small pellets suited particularly to canaries, finches, budgies and other small birds, while Fine has a larger pellet size commonly preferred by cockatiels, lovebirds, quakers, conures and other small to medium birds.

Do I need to feed anything else with this food?
Harrison’s recommend that around 75–80% of the daily diet is made up of Harrison’s food, with the remaining 20–25% consisting of suitable fresh vegetables and fruits. Additional vitamin or mineral supplements are normally unnecessary unless advised by an avian veterinarian.

How should I store Harrison’s Adult Lifetime Fine after opening?
Keep the food in its original Harrison’s bag, squeeze out excess air before resealing and keep it dry. Current Harrison’s UK guidance recommends using the contents within 12 weeks of opening. Refrigeration or freezing can also help maintain freshness.
