Yep do I need to say it out loud ?
Bag of Budgie seed .
Takes it home .
Empties it into drum.
And its full of clumps and weevils and stringy filament type spider web .
Am so stinking over it . So now what ? Back to driving a 4 hour round trip to Orange with petrol near on $1.60 a litre to get some decent seed .
Oh and the bad customer service from an angry little hobbit really was the icing on the cake.
Nothing good ever happens on a Monday ...

Can't believe no one else has complained, It wouldn't be the only bag infected!!!

Well I haven't been back to complain as yet , saving that for tomorrow . First thing I asked was " how long has it been sitting out the back " ? Probably what upset the hobbit .
For heavens sakes its bagged in Forbes , 1 1/2 hours away , how much fresher should it be ? So bloody annoyed right now .
How hard is it to get good seed ?

Went there Thursday ( Dubbo produce on Depot Rd)
Got a bag of Finch and a bag of Budgie , mixed them together then added 10% sunflower seeds

bloody awesome .Best mix so far and I reckon I got all bases covered as far as seed variety goes .
Yes very impressed .
