At my grain store I can buy all the different seeds seperately. If I was to mix my own seed what are the best seeds to buy and at what percentages.

Thanks in advance

Just worked out a deal to get Golden Cob Supreme for $33 at Corio Petstock. It is $5 dearer than the Leeton seed but in my opinion is a better/cleaner mix with added Vita D and amino acids. It is RRP at $39 but I wrote them a letter explaining that I was a member of a club and asking for discounts on their seed and products. They sent a letter back offering the discounted seed and 10% off all avian products for Geelong Budgie members.

I've been making my own seed mixes as I found my budgies were eating some of the seeds, and leaving the rest - seemed like such a waste so I kept my eyes on what seeds they like and have been buying those in bulk and making 60kg mixes

Thanks for that. I haven't heard of panorama
