Diets containing higher amounts of seeds and other high calorie treats may predispose animals to obesity and other nutritional health disorders.Always provide your animal with plenty of fresh, clean water.Thoroughly wash feeding and watering bowls on a regular basis. It is always good practice to wash hands thoroughly after feeding and/or handling pets.This diet is not for human consumption.Storage ConditionsâFor best results, reseal the bag between uses or store contents of open paper sack in container with sealing lid. Store in a cool (75 degrees F/24 degrees 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.
