Not So Great for Indoor Birds I found these seeds just okay because there were many seeds with shells and bits of debris in the bag. I had to sieve through each portion I gave my pet doves by hand in order to remove the bits of shells, paper and pebbles therein. These are ideal for outdoor birds and animals, but not for indoor birds or pets The only plus side of buying these was the amount you get for the price and Prime shipping. However, when you deduct all the stuff that’s not edible in the bag, how much more are you…
Best Price for Safflower Seed This is the BEST price I’ve found for safflower seed! I need to use it because of the squirrels. I used to just get it at Petsmart but their 7 1/2 pound bag is 12.99 so you’re basically paying $4.00 more for a half of a pound more. Wish the bag was more user friendly (recloseable) but maybe that’s why it’s so cheap!
Birds love it My three African Gray Parrots enjoy this every morning as a treat along with their fresh apple and carrot treats. They eat their treats first while I am fixing their main dish foods. I only give them 2 tsp a day sunflower seeds since their Safflower seed and pellet diet is better form them. I also cook them a pasta/bean medley and they get 2 Tbs daily of that with them pellet diet.
