Bird Sepia Cuttlebone with Holder, Trixie TX-50540, 40 g — for small birds

Trixie Sepia Cuttlebone with Holder, 40 g, is a natural calcium supplement and beak care accessory designed for small pet birds. The product combines a hard cuttlebone piece with a simple mounting holder that can be attached to cage bars, offering continuous access to a mineral-rich surface that supports bone health, eggshell quality and beak maintenance. The compact format and holder make it suitable for placement in small and medium cages without occupying much space.

Advantages

The cuttlebone is a natural source of calcium and trace minerals that birds consume by pecking, contributing to skeletal strength and proper eggshell formation. The textured surface helps file and maintain the beak, preventing overgrowth. The included holder ensures secure attachment to cage bars and keeps the cuttlebone stable while birds use it. The 40 g size is appropriate for parakeets, canaries and similar small species.

Suitable for

• Parakeets (budgerigars)
• Canaries and finches
• Other small pet birds kept in cages

Key specifications

• Weight: approximately 40 g
• Material: natural cuttlebone
• Includes: plastic or metal mounting holder for cage attachment
• Intended use: dietary mineral supplement and beak maintenance
• Form factor: compact, cage-mounted

How to use

Attach the holder to the cage bars at a comfortable height for the bird and secure the cuttlebone in the holder according to the holder's design. Ensure the holder is stable and cannot fall into the cage. Position the cuttlebone where the bird can easily reach it during daily activity. Replace the cuttlebone when it is consumed down to a small size or becomes soiled. Provide fresh water and a balanced diet alongside the cuttlebone; it is a supplement, not a complete feed.

Usage recommendations

Monitor consumption regularly to ensure birds are using the cuttlebone and to detect any excessive wear or contamination. Replace the accessory if it becomes contaminated, damaged or nearly depleted. Use as part of routine care for small birds to support beak health and calcium requirements, especially during breeding or molting periods.
