It says no sunflower seeds but in the picture it looks like there's sunflower seeds so does it

Answer by ChewyOct 16, 2018
This food does not contain sunflower seeds.

The seeds small enough for budgies?

Answer by ChewyMar 14, 2021
This mix is designed for hookbills like Parakeets (budgies), Parrots, Lovebirds, Cockatiels and Macaws.

Is the pieces too small for my Severe Macaw and Amazon? Looks more like the size feed my conure would eat.

I never had a problem buying this bag / brand for years, but i received an expired bag (2 months oast expiration date) and it had a pin hole in bag and was leaking seeds. The seeds were all at the bottom of box it came in and the seed mix was stale.

Good mix

I have been feeding this to my macaw for several years. They like the mixture without much waste.

Dog biscuits

All the biscuits I order were crushed. This has happened before. But now I have 6 bags of dog treats

How much my African gray loves it!

Great mix of safflower seeds- her favorite - and other things she’s learning to like. The mix is great and smells good. Plus the price is so reasonable

My Hawkhead is not happy!

Bird doesn't like it. Cried & sulked not wanting to eat it. It's just seeds but apparently not as good as Higgins Mayan Tikal. Waste of $. I'll have to buy Higgins

Very clean food

This is excellent quality food for my cockatoo. I have not been able to find it locally so it was nice to be able to add it to our Chewy order.
