Default Wild Bird seed what do you use?

The message
from Steve contains these words:

I find mine seem to prefer the sunflower seed whole rather than
dehulled, they seem to enjoy removing the shell. That said it's pretty
quiet of late anyhow.


How do you find your seed mixes?


I'm also looking for decent bulk supplies say 20/25kg at a time. Any
recommendations? thnx


I buy all ours by the 20/25kg sackful . My local agricultural
stock-feed suppliers offer a wide range, high quality at a fraction of
prices
in petshops or gardencentres. They have a fast enough turnover of
stock that it doesn't go stale; and deliver free.

Try yellow pages for ag.suppliers local to you.

Same here - living in S Devon we buy 25kg sacks of peanuts, mixed seed
and sunflower seeds from Mole Valley Farmers.
