What the hell is this crap in my bird seed?!
    #10100872 - 04/03/09 03:14 PM (15 years, 9 months ago)

I picked up a bag of parakeet seed earlier but I didn't notice it had these random chunks of green and red shit dispersed throughout the bag.

What the hell is this stuff and will it doom my grow?

Thanks. :awesome:

Red and green chunks?

The WBS I get has little gray rocks that settle to the bottom of the bag.  I've read that the rocks aid the birds in some way ....

Anyway... I wash the WBS and drain off all the floating (hollow) grains as well as the little gray rocks.

Don't know what your red and green stuff is.?

What do the ingredients say? 

Also, why are you using parakeet seed and not WBS?  I'd imagine it has to be more expensive, no?

The ingredients are in dutch so I'm shit out of luck. :lol: Actually from reading the ingredients and trying to translate it there is no mention of that crap, it's all talking about the seed content.

The parakeet seed was all that was available in the supermarket I was at the other day so I just scooped it up. Definitely not impresed with this crap at all. I've actually had a few jars of this stuff colonising for about 4 days and no growth... I'm not a fan of this at all... back to WBS!

The small colored bits in the standard cockatiel/parakeet mix are normally flavored kibbles, similar to cereals or dog/cat kibble.  They're nutritive, but I don't know how they'd impact a grow, as they're definitely not grains.

The green and red shit dissolves and forms into a gunky mass of nasty when put in the PC. :crankey:

Has anyone used this crap successfully? I hit these jars with a seriously potent brand of Thai LC and not a peep out of them for 4 days. :uhoh:

Considering it's basically millet and oats shouldn't this theoretically be okay?
