cuttle bone

Maltby's Stores cuttlefish bone

Cuttlefish bone, sometimes just called 'cuttlebone', is a hard, white, chalky substance usually in an elongated oblong shape, similar to a canoe. Because they are a natural product they can vary largely in size, but most cuttlefish bones are between 3-6" (7-15cm) in length. Cuttlefish bone is not actually a 'bone' at all, but rather the hard inner shell of a cuttlefish, which is a type of sea mollusc. They are a naturally occurring by-product, sourced from countries predominantly in Europe and East Asia where cuttlefish are harvested as a food product for humans. They can also regularly be found washed up naturally on beaches.

Cuttlefish bones have been harvested and used for centuries for many different purposes, including in the jewellery-making and carving industries and even formerly as an additive in toothpaste! Nowadays, cuttlefish bones are most commonly used as a dietary supplement for pets.

What sort of pets is cuttlefish bone good for

parakeets

parrots

tortoise

chinchilla

All varieties of caged bird

Cuttlefish bones are great for cage birds, such as parrots, parakeets, budgies, and even canaries and finches. Because cuttlefish bones have around an 85% calcium content, they are perfect as a supplement for birds to help improve bone strength. They also don't contain any additives like some manmade chews, such as mineral blocks.

Great for maintaining beak health

Cage and aviary birds love to peck at cuttlefish bone, and this is great as the hard texture helps them to strengthen and clean their beaks. Because they are entirely natural, cuttlefish bones contain absolutely no additives, colourings or substances that can be harmful to your birds.

A fantastic supplement for reptiles

Pet reptiles, such as tortoises, can also benefit hugely from being given cuttlefish bones. The high calcium content helps them to build strong and healthy bones, reducing the risk of metabolic bone disease, and chewing the bone will help prevent a tortoise's beak from becoming overgrown.

Furry friends love them too!

It's not just birds and reptiles that may benefit from cuttlefish bones. They can also be given to many small rodents, such as chinchillas, as a safe chew for them to gnaw on. The act of gnawing prevents rodents' teeth becoming overlong, aiding with feeding and preventing other health issues.

love birds

We sell a comprehensive range of feeds for all cage and aviary birds, including seed mixes for parrots, budgies, finches, cockatiels, parakeets, pigeons and canaries.
