If sourced from a reputable supplier there’s not much in them apart from white/ green are a lot cheaper than maples
I my have stopped buying maples, the quality is not the same as those in the 70s/80s. Green are too expensive, so white or blue peas for me.
Glad you replied king i hoped you would
Never fed white peas
Do the dropping still come out like there’s maples or tics in the diet
Can't say I've took much notice Neil. I only feed peas/beans straight in pots in the nest boxes when rearing.(I did feed weaned YBs for the first 2 weeks just beans/peas when I raced) My old birds are fed Bamfords Top Flight Multi Task ALL year round. The reason I stopped using maples is the birds used to leave them or eat them last when they were in a mix.
