seed types

Post by SuzE » Thu Mar 11, 2010 7:08 pm

Can anyone tell me which seeds look like mouse droppings? Black and sort of long shaped? Slightly curved? These are the seeds that my birds (all of them) leave in the dish or throw on the floor and I would like to think about ordering a special mix to avoid so much waste. Please don't tell me there is no such seed and it must be mouse turds tho :lol: Thanks in advance
