Do your birds eat milk thistle seeds, Marianne? My guys wouldn't touch them. Even after I husked them for the little blighters.

I keep looking online for some time and sooner or later I find the required stuff cheap and with free delivery. This works if one plans well in advance

What's the difference between the different types of millet spray?
I've only seen millet sprays sold as 'millet spray' here in Australia, not labelled as to variety.

French are considered better, hence expensive.

I thought the French would be better, but I've never seen the French stuff here in Australia. That Chinese millet pic looks like what have in stores.
Do these budgies we all keep know how much running around we have to do for them? Hmmmmm?
