The Vetafarm Feeding Spoon is a stainless steel hand-feeding tool for rearing baby birds. Professionally moulded and made in Australia, it delivers controlled food flow without the need for a crop needle. Available in small and large sizes, it's the standard choice for aviculturists, breeders, and rescuers working with hatchlings and young chicks of different species.

Vetafarm has been supplying avian veterinary products for over 40 years, and the spoon reflects that background — the shape is optimised for accurate dosing rather than improvised solutions. Stainless steel is easy to sterilise between feeds, which matters when working with multiple chicks or immunocompromised birds. The two sizes suit different species, from small finches and budgerigars to larger parrots.

Hand-rearing birds requires precision — too much formula at once causes aspiration, too little slows development. The spoon's design prioritises control over speed, which is the right trade-off for fragile birds. It's the kind of tool that gets passed on in aviculture communities rather than replaced.
