Lafeber Company

Our Story

Lafeber Company was built by a father-son team of veterinarians with a shared love of  animals and a special passion for birds. Dr. T.J. Lafeber developed the  very first commercial bird food pellet in the back room of his  veterinary clinic in the early 1970s. Today, our recipes are developed  by his son, Dr. Ted Lafeber, III, along with top veterinarians and  nutritionists.

Our manufacturing facility has always been located  on the Lafeber family farmland, and all of our products are mixed,  formed and packaged under one roof. Staying true to our motto —“Caring and working for the health of animals” — we created Veterinary Resources to offer exotic animal veterinarians  an every-growing library of vet-written articles, client education  materials and videos. Helping Animals is our online networking community  dedicated to nourishing and protecting animals and their worlds near  and far. Pet Birds and Small Mammals are dedicated to pet owners and  offers a wide variety of information on their beloved pets.
