That can save messing about with the feed so much and causing upset digestion.
But that mix, wow! :o :lol: The bloke must have got a cheap deal on a ton of safflower or something!
I agree with Murray, it would be good for the digestion system.
Niel, it was 2 young bird mixes from Bamfords. Centenary youngsters and depurative mixed together.

It doesn’t look like that to me to be honest but maybe it’s the video

That is what he said used Niel, i do like the mix myself, Youngsters could have a good feed on this mix, and digest their food with no problems. As long there is a good balance of seeds it should be just right.
