Clay Bloc Amazon River

Clay Bloc Amazon River

Give your parrot a taste of the Amazon with Clay Bloc Amazon River by Versele-Laga, a premium mineral pickstone formulated from a blend of natural clay, oyster shells, seashells, redstone, and flint, designed to provide essential minerals and trace elements for large parakeets and parrots.

In the wild, parrots, particularly South American species, are famous for a remarkable behaviour: they gather at clay licks along riverbanks, consuming clay-rich soil from the cliffs of the Amazon River basin. This isn't random behaviour it's a sophisticated, instinctive health practice. The clay binds to natural toxins found in their wild diet of seeds and fruits, helping neutralise harmful compounds before they can be absorbed. The clay also delivers a rich dose of minerals and trace elements that are difficult to obtain from food alone. 

Key Benefits:

• Based on natural Amazon River clay — formulated on the analysis of natural clay rock from the cliffs along the Amazon River
• Essential minerals and trace elements — provides calcium, minerals, and trace nutrients that may be missing from your bird's regular diet
• Natural toxin binding — clay helps bind and neutralise dietary toxins, supporting digestive health and liver function
• Beak conditioning — the firm texture encourages gnawing and chewing, promoting natural beak wear and health
• Enriching and engaging — gives your bird a purposeful activity to interact with throughout the day
• 550g block — a substantial, long-lasting mineral source for ongoing supplementation
• Suitable for large parakeets and parrots — ideal for cockatiels, conures, Amazons, African Greys, macaws, and more

Why you'll love it:

The connection to wild parrot behaviour is what makes this product genuinely special. The clay they consume is rich in sodium, calcium, potassium, magnesium, and a range of trace elements that their regular diet can't fully provide. The clay also acts as a natural detoxifier, binding to alkaloid toxins present in many wild seeds and fruits. Versele-Laga studied the composition of these natural clay deposits and formulated the Clay Bloc Amazon River to mirror that mineral profile giving your companion bird access to a supplement that aligns with millions of years of evolutionary instinct.

Ideal for: Cockatiels, conures, Quaker parrots, caiques, Pionus, Amazon parrots, African Greys, Eclectus, macaws, and other large parakeets and parrots.

Perfect for:

• Supplementing essential minerals and trace elements
• South American parrots with natural clay-licking instincts
• Supporting natural detoxification and digestive health
• Beak conditioning and gnawing enrichment
• Breeding hens who need extra calcium support

Feeding Guidelines: Offer the Clay Bloc freely in the cage or aviary, mounted securely where your bird can easily access it. Your bird will instinctively consume what they need, no portion control required. Replace when the block is significantly worn down. Always provide fresh water alongside the mineral block.
