Linseed 12.5KG

Linseed is a small brown flat seed that is rich in essential oils that is popular with both wild birds and aviary birds. Linseed is high in Omega 3 fatty acids that is both valuable and essential for birds when they are moulting to help maintain their feathers. Linseed is similar to rapeseed, it's high in protein, high dietary fibre, rich in B vitamins and trace elements such as calcium, magnesium and phosphorous, but also high in fat and energy too!

Linseed is grown in the spring, harvested and screened then added to various wild bird foods, aviary bird mixtures and parrot foods, that is relished by finches and yellow hammers, but is also a good tonic seed helping wild birds keep warm during the cold winter months.

Linseed has a very high oil content approximately 40%, that also helps a bird's digestion process because of it's mucous secreting properties and can be feed to a wide variety of seed eating birds, not just wild birds but aviary birds too for instance; Canaries, British Finches, Budgies, Parakeets, Lovebirds, Cockatiels and Conures as well as most species of larger parrots, including Cockatoos and Macaws.
