Seed Help

Post by Debbie2580 » Fri Jul 13, 2012 4:30 pm

The company I buy my Finch seed from has gone out of business. I was buy a beautiful blend of fancy finch seed from Devieny Pet supply in Jacksonville florida. I need to buy in bulk. Does anyone know where I can get high quality seed with dried veggies and other things added in bulk at a reasonable price. My birds are picky and don't like change. I once ran out and bought a bag at the pet store and they refused to eat it.

Thank you
Debbie

There are several members in the Orlando area, so someone should be able to help you. When there are bird marts in that area, usually there will be vendors there will big bags of seed.

I know a lot of people on here buy in bulk from Herman Brothers. They have a large selection of seed mixes. You can probably find a mix your birds will eat.

There is a show this weekend, Sunday. There are usually seed vendors towards the back of the property. This is an outdoor show. You can also look at vendors lists for some shows like Orlndo.

Also foryourbirds.com and bulkbirdfood.com carries many brands including ABBA seed. You can also try ABBA Seed Co. I have used Herman Brothers.

Can you tell use what was in you seed blend and I may be able to direct you to a vendor or company in Florida. There is a few companies here that sell seeds.

Nancy is in Florida, and she has just started selling a finch mix. I believe she is growing most of these seeds, so they are incredibly fresh.
