Johnson’s Large Iodised Conditioning Pek

The Johnson’s Large Iodised Conditioning Pek is a substantial mineral block specifically formulated for larger caged birds and parrots. This hard, long-lasting pek provides a vital source of iodine—an essential trace element for maintaining healthy thyroid function and a steady metabolism. Designed to be pecked and gnawed over time, it provides the necessary resistance to help birds keep their beaks trim and healthy. It is an ideal dietary supplement for birds that may not receive adequate minerals from a standard seed-based diet.

Shop Floor Advice from the Team While the smaller version is great for budgies, this Large Pek is built to withstand the stronger beaks of Cockatiels and Parrots. We often suggest these for birds that have a habit of chewing things they shouldn't—it gives them a productive, healthy outlet for that gnawing instinct. Position it in a high-traffic area of the cage where your bird likes to climb. If you have a particularly destructive parrot, check the wire hanger occasionally to make sure they haven't bent it out of shape. It’s a simple, low-cost way to prevent "parrot goitre" and keep their beak in top-tier condition.
