Re: Fresh seed vs store bought seed...Guess the results?
Hello everyone and thank you for all your feed back. I am just finishing up the last little things and I hope to have it available after the first of the year. Please keep in mind that this is a basic quality millet mix and other seed mixtures should be incorporated for molt and winter etc. My Hubby has the specifics of the mix but I think the percentages go like this.
30% Browntop Millet
30% Japanese Millet
20% German Foxtail Millet
10% Dove Proso
5% Red Millet
5% White Millet
30% Browntop Millet
30% Japanese Millet
20% German Foxtail Millet
10% Dove Proso
5% Red Millet
5% White Millet

Re: Fresh seed vs store bought seed...Guess the results?
Anymore news about how the process is going? Would there be any possible way of getting some of this seed shipped to Canada when it is available for purchase

It is a separate business and not through Hancock Seed...best to send her a pm...she has it bagged and mixed and the sales are off her own website.
This is her business Roose Green Solutions

It is a separate business for her, she purchases the seed from them.
Here is the contact page for her.

I live near her and she has been working on getting more bird products onto the site.

Dayna if you are interested in ordering seed you can also contact her via email at
http://www.roosegreensolutions.com/index.php/contacts
Dayna, be sure to mention you are in Canada, I am unclear on whether she can ship seed into canada or not.
