This will be my first time feeding milk thistle seeds, is there a limit on how many they can eat between 4 conures or can I mix it in with their regular seed/grain mix?

This months mix (should last 4-6months)
4 pounds sprouted millet
3 pounds sprouted quinoa
4 pounds sprouted oats
2 pounds milk thistle
2 pounds sprouted brown rice

I should add that about 3 pounds will be going to a friend with 2 cockatiels (mostly millet and oats)

No limit that I'm aware of. I used to mix it in my mix also :)

The birds that land in our yard eat it to their hearts content. That is fresh stuff though and I’m not sure if there’s a difference.
