I bought a bag of a small seed mix called bird herbs yesterday at Birds R Us .
Should have bought 2 or 3 the way they are tucking into it , I just finished doing the aviaries food/water and was admiring them and every aviary had a bird sitting in the Herb Seed bowl .
Finches , Budgies , Scarlets , R/Rs and Princess Parrots . Its a winner .

Just thought Id share .

The taste of Africa seeds seem to have more of the darker seeds in the mix compared to the Herb mix I have. Wonder if the Premium Herb is different?
I make a mix of Taste of Africa, Herb seed, Canary, Pannicum, linseed and maw. The birds seem to like it, they are always in the bowl with in seconds of me replenishing it.
