The mixture contains rolled and roasted peas, maize and wheat, which are blended with Avi Plus’s yellow rusk supplement. Manna, millet, canary seed, linseed, Niger seed and rape seed are then added to provide the smaller seeds these birds naturally enjoy selecting and dehusking.

Ingredients

Avi Plus Complete Mix Small Seedeaters 1kg contains:

Rolled and roasted peas, maize and wheat, specially formulated yellow rusk supplement, manna, millet, canary seed, linseed, Niger seed and rape seed.

Rolled and Roasted Grains and Peas

Rolled and roasted peas, maize and wheat form an important part of the mixture. Cooking these ingredients changes their texture and provides additional variety alongside the smaller seeds.

The grain and legume base is combined with Avi Plus’s specially formulated yellow rusk supplement, helping provide the nutritional balance required by small seed-eating birds.

Manna, Millet and Canary Seed

Manna, millet and canary seed provide familiar small seeds that are appropriately sized for budgies, canaries and many finches.

These ingredients encourage natural behaviours such as picking, sorting and dehusking food while providing variety in the feeding dish.

Linseed, Niger Seed and Rape Seed

Avi Plus Complete Mix Small Seedeaters 1kg also contains linseed, Niger seed and rape seed. These add further seed variety and contribute different naturally occurring fats and nutrients to the mixture.

Feeding Guidelines

Feed approximately:

3–5g of Avi Plus Complete Mix Small Seedeaters per bird per day.

Avi Plus feeding guidance also describes the daily amount as approximately 10% of the bird’s body weight.

Individual requirements can vary according to species, body size, activity level, temperature, breeding status and body condition.

Fresh food should be supplied every day. Avi Plus recommends ensuring that approximately 5% of the food remains uneaten, helping confirm that birds have had adequate access to food rather than being feed-restricted.

Always provide fresh, clean drinking water.

Directions for Moist Feeding

Avi Plus Complete Mix Small Seedeaters 1kg can be lightly moistened before feeding.

Add approximately:

300–400ml lukewarm water per 1kg dry food.

Preparation Guide

Mix until the food is evenly moistened.

Prepared moist food should be supplied fresh and uneaten portions removed regularly, particularly during warm weather.

Feeding Budgies

Budgies can enjoy Avi Plus Complete Mix Small Seedeaters 1kg as their main Avi Plus mixture, while additional suitable greens and enrichment foods can provide variety.

Avi Plus feeding information specifically mentions seeding grasses, sprouted seeds and greens such as grated carrot as suitable additions for budgies.

Avoid allowing a bird to select only its favourite seeds over extended periods, as selective feeding can interfere with the nutritional balance of a mixed diet. Avi Plus specifically cautions that prolonged selection of individual ingredients may contribute to deficiencies.

Feeding Canaries

Canaries benefit from the mixture of small seeds and formulated nutritional ingredients in Avi Plus Complete Mix Small Seedeaters 1kg.

Avi Plus also suggests that canaries may enjoy suitable flowering seed heads and safe plants such as chickweed as additional enrichment foods.

Any fresh plant material should be correctly identified, free from pesticides and safe for the species before being offered.

Feeding Finches

The fine seed mixture also makes this food suitable for many finch species.

Some finches have additional nutritional requirements and may require appropriate live foods such as mealworms, particularly depending on species and breeding status. Avi Plus specifically notes that some finch species require additional live feed.

During Breeding and Chick Rearing

Birds feeding young have significantly increased nutritional requirements.

Avi Plus recommends increasing the amount of food supplied by 100% or more when birds are feeding chicks in the nest and adding an appropriate breeder food such as Avi Plus Egg Food Breeder during this demanding period.

Avi Plus also advises that extra nutritional support is required during breeding and parent rearing, with breeder or egg-food products supplied in addition to normal rations.

Encourage Natural Feeding Behaviour

Budgies, canaries and finches naturally spend considerable time selecting and handling individual seeds.

The mixture of manna, millet, canary seed, linseed, Niger seed and rape seed in Avi Plus Complete Mix Small Seedeaters 1kg gives birds several different food pieces to explore.

A measured portion can also be incorporated into suitable bird-safe foraging activities, encouraging birds to search for food instead of receiving everything from a single bowl.

Suitable For

Avi Plus Complete Mix Small Seedeaters 1kg is particularly suitable for:

• Budgies
• Canaries
• Finches
• Other appropriate small seed-eating birds

Retail and Avi Plus feeding information specifically identifies finches, budgies and canaries for this formulation.

Storage

Store Avi Plus Complete Mix Small Seedeaters 1kg in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
