ZuPreem Marmoset Diet Canned is formulated to be a nutritionally complete diet when a source of Vitamin C is provided. Designed to be fed as the primary diet for marmosets and tamarins, this remarkable diet was developed many years ago when it was discovered that some New World primates could not convert Vitamin D2 (widely used in animal nutrition) to D3. After intensive research, nutritional experts at ZuPreem produced a diet with a perfect blend of ingredients that included adequate levels of Vitamin D3, other important nutrients, and an appealing aroma and palatability. Ever since, this diet has been an integral part of marmoset and tamarin husbandry.
