Mazuri® Primate Maintenance Biscuit Food 25 lb bag

Mazuri® Primate Diets are designed to be an essential part of a total primate feeding system and may be used in conjunction with all other Mazuri® primate products.

Primates generally consume 2% to 4% of their body weight in food each day on a dry matter basis (i.e., a 50 lb. animal will eat 1 to 2 lbs. of food per day, on a dry matter basis).

1. Mazuri® primate diets can be supplemented with fresh vegetables and fruit if this is desired to provide variety in the diet, as long as the dry matter of these items does not exceed 50% of the dry matter consumption. Using typical produce and nontoxic browse, a feeding program on an “as fed” basis might consist of 60% produce/browse and 40% Mazuri® primate products (i.e., a diet may be 6 lb. of produce/browse plus 4 lb. of one or a mix of Mazuri® primate products).

The amount of diet the animal requires will vary according to its age, size, life stage, health status, and activity of the animal as well as the environmental temperature.

1. Adjust daily feed intake based on the health status, body condition, and nutrient level desired to meet the needs of your primates.
2. Diet may be soaked to soften the biscuits for neonates or animals that have difficulty chewing.

Primates require ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in their daily diet. Mazuri® Primate Diets contain a stabilized form of vitamin C that is stable under appropriate storage conditions for at least 1 year from the date of manufacturing printed on the bag.

Always provide plenty of fresh, clean water. Thoroughly wash feed and water bowls on a regular basis. It is always good practice to wash hands thoroughly after feeding and/or handling animals.

This diet is not for human consumption.

For best results, reseal the bag between uses or store contents of open paper sack in container with sealing lid. Store in a cool (75°F/24°C or colder), dry (approximately 50% RH) location free from rodents and insects. Do not offer moldy or insect-infested feed to animals as it may result in illness, performance loss or death. Freezing will not harm the diet and may extend freshness. Use within 1 year of bag manufacturing or "Best if Used By" date.
