Ok so he's the description. Seems ideal from what I can tell. Tired of having to fish out sunflower seed and what not from other birdseed.
"All Living Things Dove and Quail Blend Wild Bird Food is made up of a tasty combination of white proso millet, milo, wheat, field peas, red proso millet, canary grass seed, popcorn, safflower seeds and oat groats. The delicious recipe will have doves and quails returning to your feeders"

More than $1 a pound? Damn that's getting pricey. Go with whole oats...about .35c a pound.

Do you find oats easier to prep than Wbs ?

Never researched whole oats after just 20 minutes I'm sold. Didn't even think about the price range. Thanks for the tips.

no problem even if you live in a city you can find whole oats locally they are super easy to prep i used innocules tek for awhile and it never let me down but lately ive been using a no soak method which is equally as good just faster i'd recommend them both.

It won't mess up the moisture content in the grain? That would make time so much better. But everyone always says to be patient.

no the moisture comes out almost perfect I prep oats using this method its very easy and the results are consistant I rarely go past boiling for 35 minutes cause I hate popped kernals so I just stick with 30-35 mins one other thing I like about oats is that they all look basically the same and it seems to make assessing your grain spawn easier (IMO) because the grains are all the same color so any differences/varience in mycelium is easily noticed. I find with the above method and a lil gypsum my grains come out perfectly every time like in the RR videos
