Best grasses for grass seed in an aviary?

Post by Stephanie » Wed Nov 19, 2008 6:19 pm

Hi

What grass varieties will grow well in my aviary and provide good supplemental seed for the birds? The aviary floor gets some sun from morning through to early afternoon.

Thanks.

havent found anything to equal it, so far
Addicted to Finches, yes I do admit it.
I pray they never find a cure.
