RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g

Natural Wild Seed Variety for Companion Birds

RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g is a diverse complementary seed mixture inspired by the types of grass, meadow and plant seeds many birds encounter in nature.

The blend contains 16 different natural ingredients, including ray-grass, Japanese millet, common millet, meadow fescue, timothy grass, cocksfoot, Kentucky bluegrass, linseed, red clover and plantain. These small seeds create an interesting mixture of shapes, textures and flavours that encourages birds to pick through their food naturally.

RIO developed this mix as a complementary treat rather than a complete everyday food. It is therefore ideal for adding occasional variety to a bird’s normal species-appropriate diet.

Because of the small size of the seeds, RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g is particularly well suited to budgies, canaries, finches, exotic birds and other small companion birds.

Ingredients

RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g contains:

A Mixture Inspired by Natural Feeding

Wild birds consume far more than one or two types of seed. Depending on habitat and season, they may feed on numerous grasses, meadow plants and small seeds.

RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g introduces some of this ingredient variety into the feeding routine of companion birds.

The mixture contains seeds from several grass species, including meadow fescue, timothy grass, cocksfoot, Kentucky bluegrass and smooth brome grass. These are combined with millet, linseed, rapeseed, clover, plantain and sorrel to produce a diverse complementary food.

Offering different types of small seeds can make feeding more interesting and gives birds an opportunity to search, pick and select individual ingredients.

Millet and Grass Seeds

The blend contains Japanese millet, common millet and yellow panicum, alongside several small grass seeds.

Millet is readily accepted by many small seed-eating birds, while the additional grass seeds introduce different textures and seed sizes.

This broad ingredient mix is one of the key differences between RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g and a simple millet-based treat.

Linseed

Linseed adds another naturally oil-rich seed to the mixture.

Rather than relying on one high-energy seed, the RIO Wild Seeds Mix combines linseed with a range of grass and meadow seeds, helping provide ingredient diversity within a small serving.

Clover, Plantain and Sorrel

Red clover, common plantain and green sorrel contribute further plant-seed variety.

These ingredients help make RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g particularly interesting as an occasional complementary food, especially for birds whose everyday diet contains a more standard selection of millet and canary seed.

Feeding Guidelines

Feed:

1 teaspoon, 3–5 times per week.

RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g may be:

• Served separately in a clean treat dish
• Mixed into your bird’s normal food
• Used in suitable bird-safe foraging activities

RIO specifically identifies the product as a complementary feed, so it should be offered alongside the bird’s normal everyday diet rather than replacing it.

Always provide fresh, clean drinking water.

Suitable For

The small seed size makes RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g especially suitable for:

• Budgies
• Canaries
• Finches
• Exotic birds
• Other small seed-eating companion birds

RIO also describes the product as a treat suitable for all types of birds, although the manufacturer particularly highlights smaller species because of the seed size.

Great for Foraging and Enrichment

Food can be more than simply nutrition. Searching for and selecting individual seeds can form part of a bird’s normal daily activity.

A small measured portion of RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g can be placed in a suitable foraging tray or bird-safe enrichment toy, allowing birds to search for the individual seeds.

The mixture of numerous small seed types makes it particularly useful for scattering through safe foraging materials rather than simply offering everything in one bowl.

Always ensure that any foraging toy or feeding accessory is suitable for your bird’s size and species.

Complementary Treat, Not a Complete Diet

Although RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g contains a broad selection of seeds, it is not formulated to replace your bird’s complete daily food.

Feed according to the manufacturer’s recommendation of one teaspoon 3–5 times weekly.

Your bird should continue receiving an appropriate everyday food suited to its species, together with suitable fresh foods where appropriate and unrestricted access to clean drinking water.

Using the Wild Seeds Mix as an occasional treat helps add variety without allowing favourite seeds to replace nutritionally important parts of the main diet.

Storage

Store RIO Wild Seeds Mix Natural Treat 240g in a cool, dry place away from excess heat, moisture and direct sunlight.

Keep the container securely closed after feeding. Do not offer seeds that have become damp, mouldy or contaminated.

Food and treat containers should also be kept clean to prevent old seed husks and debris from accumulating.

Product Specifications

The manufacturer lists the 240g pack as Article 22230, EAN 4602533000159.
