Customers are mixed about the seed quantity. Some mention that there is a nice variety of seeds and there isn't much filler seed. They say it's good to add to premium seed to make it go a bit longer. However, others say that the seed was all over the box, leaking out through the bag. They also say that they are not getting the seed they want or the nutrients and food they crave. They mention that the product was full of webbing and tiny grey moths.

Customers are mixed about the color of the pet food. Some mention that their feather colors look better than ever, and it's nice not to have food coloring in their birds' food.

Flavor?  Asked the bird.  He said give it a five!

Flavor? Asked the bird. He said give it a five!
Commercial seed mixes at local pet shops had too much filler & non-edible stuff for a parakeet. Cracked corn? I ordered the Volkman online & have been very pleased with it. Smells fresh & has much less filler. It disappears quickly from Leo's seed cups. Somebody likes it.
