Nutritional advice
• Primates generally consume about 2% to 4% of their body weight in food each day on a dry matter basis (i.e., a 50 kg animal will eat 1 to 2 kg of food per day, on a dry matter basis).
• The amount of diet the animal requires will vary according to its age, size, life stage, health status and activity of the animal and the environmental temperature.
• Fresh, clean water should be available at all times.
• 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.
