Feeding Directions
Monkey Crunch 20 should be fed within 180 days of manufacture. Product
stored beyond 180 days of age is nutritionally adequate except for vitamin C, if
in good condition and can be used for an additional 180 days if a supplemental
source of vitamin C is provided with the ration. The date of product manufacture
is found at the bottom of the back of the bag.
Primates generally consume about 2 to 4 percent of their body weight in food each day. A guide for consumption would be 50-60 g/5 kg body weight per day. A male gorilla may eat as much as 1 kg per day, while the chimpanzee may only consume 100-200 g/day.
Monkey Crunch 20 may be soaked in a fruit juice to soften the biscuits for infants or animals that have difficulty chewing. Fruit juice is recommended because soaking the biscuits in water or milk more rapidly deteriorates the vitamin C. The use of fruits, vegetables or other supplements is optional but not necessary.
IMPORTANT: A feeding program is only as effective as the management practices followed.
CAUTION: Store in a dry, well ventilated area, free of pests and insects. Do not use moldy or insect-infested feed.
