Feeding Directions:
- Mazuri® Primate Diets are designed to be an essential part of a complete primate feeding program and may be used with other Mazuri® primate products.
- Primates generally consume 2%–4% of their body weight in food daily on a dry matter basis. For example, a 50 lb animal may consume approximately 1–2 lb of food per day on a dry matter basis.
- Fresh vegetables, fruit, and suitable non-toxic browse may be offered for variety. Keep these additions to no more than 50% of total daily food intake on a dry matter basis. A typical as-fed feeding program may consist of 60% produce or browse and 40% Mazuri® primate products.
- Adjust the amount fed according to the animal's age, size, life stage, health, activity level, body condition, environmental temperature, and nutritional needs.
- Biscuits may be soaked to soften them for neonates or animals that have difficulty chewing.
- Always provide plenty of fresh, clean water. Wash food and water bowls regularly and wash hands after feeding or handling animals.
Storage:
Reseal the bag after use or transfer the contents of an opened paper sack to a container with a tight-fitting lid. Store in a cool, dry location at 75°F (24°C) or below, with approximately 50% relative humidity, away from rodents and insects. Do not feed moldy or insect-infested product. Freezing will not harm the diet and may help preserve freshness. Use within one year of the bag's manufacturing date or by the printed Best if Used By date.
Cautions and Warnings:
For feeding to primates only. Not for human consumption. Primates require vitamin C in their daily diet; store the food appropriately to help maintain vitamin C stability.
