HANDFEEDING SYRINGES and ACCESSORIES

 

NEW! Feeding forceps -  
Even though most of you feed parrots and use syringes and spoons, those of us who handraise mousebirds, mynahs, toucans and other softbills often need a good pair of forceps to aid weaning. In my case, they greatly aid my stubby fingers in stuffing fruit down greedy mouths! The stainless forceps are good quality, have a decent weight to them and are easily sterilized or put into the dishwasher. The plastic forceps are disposable, though they can be cleaned and cold-disinfected (dishwasher is not recommended).

Stainless Steel - 
Available in two sizes:
Stainless 5 1/2" forceps - $5.00
Stainless 8" forceps - $7.50

Disposable -
Available in 6" long - 3/$1.00


 

Plastic Feeding Tube -  18" long, size 8 French (3/32" opening), fits on any of the handfeeding syringes Pippin's Roost offers (seen below). Sterile packaging. 

$2.50 each.


 

Feeding Tube - 8-French size (really good for tiny babies and medicines), 15" in length, with 1 cm markings, it fits on the end of most feeding syringes, including the Pippin's Roost Long Nose. Made of clear flexible plastic, it comes in sterile packaging.

$3.00 each.


 

Before beginning to feed any baby birds, please make sure you are using a proper technique. 
Pippin's Roost Exotics will not be responsible for injury or death due to improper handfeeding.

ALL SYRINGES ARE IN SEALED PACKAGES FOR YOUR BABIES' PROTECTION!


 

BAXA O-ring Syringe The exclusive BAXA syringe plunger is made of a silicone 0-ring sandwiched between two layers of plastic. This greatly increases the life of the plunger and allows for a smooth, steady "Push" of the handfeeding formula through the syringe. Syringes and plungers must be washed and disinfected carefully between uses, since food particles can get stuck between the layers of the 0-ring "sandwich." 10cc and 20cc syringes have offset tips; the rest have centered tips.

PIPPIN’S ROOST NO-RING SYRINGES

No-ring means smooth, even delivery of handfeeding formula, even to your most active babies!  No-ring means easier cleaning and much less chance of food particles sticking to the plunger. No-ring means no wearing out of the O-ring or rubber stopper on the plunger. No-ring means no replacement until the print on the outside is gone!

*Please note that the LongNose syringe has been replaced by the No-ring. The No-rings work better. They really do!

BAXA Syringe Tips These handy extension tips allow the handfeeder to use a new tip for each baby without refilling a syringe. They do, however, narrow the tip somewhat, and are not good for feeding thick formula. Fits BAXA 10 and 20 cc syringes only.

BAXA Universal Medicine Bottle Adapter Never stick an oral syringe in a medicine or vitamin bottle again! This nifty gadget is a rubber stopper, graduated to fit almost any standard medicine bottle. BAXA syringe (except 60cc) will fit into the top, allowing you to tip the bottle up and draw out the required amount of liquid. Comes with an attached plug so you can seal the bottle until the next use. Comes with a 1cc or 3cc syringe; please specify the size.

Transfer Pipette

 

Disposable, plastic pipettes with soft, flexible tips. The smallest are teeny, tiny pipettes, and are excellent for those trying to start tiny finches, parakeets, tanagers, hummingbirds or other small babies. It should be noted that the formula used in these extra small pipettes should be thin because of the fineness of the tip. They hold about 1 cc.  Pipettes come in 5 cc sizes; graduated pipettes have a smaller tip than the plain ones.
