Our avian vet suggested we try Harrison's super fine to help wean our canary-winged parakeet off of seed.
Since we had some extra time a day were curious we decided to drive a town over to a new-to-us bird store.
The store was kind of a nightmare, I won't go into details, but they did have the Harrison's , so I grabbed a bag. When my hand touched the bag the shop owner came over to give me a lecture. She told me to look at the ingredients, and notice that there are peanuts and sunflower seeds. OMG she said, the exact thing going you're trying to avoid!! After that she gave me a long lecture about using food from her bulk bins (while the occasional moth flew around) It was just bizarre.
I'm assuming that the Harrison's is balanced andnothing like feeding a bunch of seeds, but I have to admit the lady got in my head a bit. Do any fellow AA members have reservations about this food?
