466125 Safflower Gold Natural Food For Conure/Cockatiel, 25-Pound

Long time customer, lifetime bird parent. Quality is very good. Sometimes I laugh bc the bird is eating better than I am. Cashews and pistachios are expensive (!!) but included in this seed mix. For those who have moth/bug issues, there’s an EASY fix. It’s a common problem with birdseed so I wouldn’t necessarily attribute it to this brand. The larger the bag the more you will probably have this problem if you do not do this easy fix. As soon as amazon delivers seed, separate the food into tupperware. Anything not going in the sealed “immediate use” container goes in freezer for minimum 24 hours. I usually have to rotate them in bc there’s not enough room for all of it. If I can, I keep it in freezer a week. This kills all moths etc that are invisibly waiting to come out. I had a moth issue and this fixed it permanently : )

Received this in a very timely fashion, product cockatiel food was fresh good odor seed variety and pellets with dried foods were evenly added and not a ton of sunflower seed, But compared to other brands and specific food this was A+. Only one drawback and not with the food the packaging it was mailed in was splitting open. Due to weight barely got it in the house before box tape split. But otherwise I recommend and will buy again. My birds can’t wait for me to put it in their bowls they actually pace on the bar and eagerly get busy eating when I move away less seeds on the floor since what they like is easy since the seeds are more to their liking and not as much sunflower seed pellets are their size and varied in color shape and thickness they tend to eat more of them. Good value for money like the citrus smell and actually I went back and ordered two more bags a week later.

I’ve been using the 25 lb bag of Higgins Safflower Gold for a while now, and it’s a hit with all of my birds—my Half-Moon Conures, my Green Cheek, my Cockatiel, and even my African Grey. The mix is fresh, clean, and smells great right out of the bag. I really appreciate that it doesn’t contain sunflower seeds, but still has a great variety of ingredients they actually eat—not just pick through.

Have been feeding this to my two Conures for years now. Prefer not to have sunflower seeds in their mix. Not that they don't love them but my birds' weight at checkups are just right and stable and sunflower seeds are rich. Like every available Conure-labeled food it contains way too much filler seed more appropriate to Parakeets which ends up being repurposed to the wild birds. A 25-pound bag lasts a long time but it's more economical than the smaller bags on Amazon and a much, much better price than at the pet store. Appreciate the Velcro closure on the sturdy bag.

My birds love this food. It gives them a good variety of ingredients.

Super fast shipping, received in one day. No tears in the bag,awesome quality. My birds love this food! Will be ordering from this company from now on.

Was not impressed at all. Glorified parakeet seed. My aviary blew through this /wasted this 3x faster than their normal food. Would pick only one or two things out of it and waste the rest. SO expensive for such a small amount of low quality seed. Avian breeder pellets are much better, less messy, more healthy, last longer and you can get double the amount for just a bit more.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I have a lovebird, a ring neck, cockatiels, and Quakers. This is my first time buying this food and it is a hit! My whole flock loves it! I like that it has a little bit of everything and no sunflower seeds. I highly recommend.
