Dari, also known as sorghum or millet, is a variety of grain that is related to millet varieties. Dari is the size of a hemp seed. The grain originates from the warm regions of Australia, Asia, Africa, and South America. There are three varieties: white dari, yellow dari, and reddish-brown dari. It is noteworthy that more value is attributed to light dari than to reddish-brown dari. Regarding nutritional value, there is not the slightest difference. Furthermore, reddish-brown dari is well appreciated by lovebirds. Dari can be compared to wheat in terms of starch content. The seed has a favourable composition of amino acids. The protein present in dari has a particularly high leucine content.

The thistle-Marie seed has hepatoprotective properties. It is therefore excellent for our birds to avoid liver problems as a preventive measure.
Millet is used in the diet of all birds: straight beaks and hooked beaks. In bunches, it's a treat they love.
Cluster millet has a good protein and carbohydrate content and also contains a large number of amino acids. Ideal for distracting your birds and thus avoiding pecking (feather pulling).
Chia is a sage. It is an annual plant that can grow up to 1 m tall and whose scientific name is Salvia hispanica.
The composition of chia seeds is closely related to that of other mucilaginous seeds such as flaxseed and psyllium. Unlike flaxseed, however, chia does not present anti-nutritional factors, factors that limit the use of flaxseed without prior heat treatment. Anti-nutritional factors are cyanogenic glucosides or linatins, inhibitors of vitamin B6 that prevent its action. Chia also has a much more pleasant taste than flaxseed and is more likely to be eaten by birds.
Cardi seed is rich in protein and linoleic acid, which helps lower cholesterol levels and therefore reduce heart disease. It is found in parakeet and parrot mixes but also in native birds such as bullfinches.
Cardi seeds are high in fat. The amino acid proportions of the seed are very favourable, the arginine content is very high. The seed is low in lysine and methionine + cystine, while tryptophan is completely lacking.
The Cardy seed is rich in protein and linoleic acid, which helps reduce cholesterol levels and therefore decreases the risk of heart disease. It is found in mixes for budgerigars and parrots, but also for native birds such as bullfinches.
Cardy seeds are high in fat. The amino acid proportions of the seed are very favourable, with a very high arginine content. The seed is low in lysine and methionine + cystine, while tryptophan is completely lacking.
Niger seed is a bird seed rich in phosphorus and calcium.
Niger seeds (or nyjer seeds) are fine seeds rich in oil.
They come from Guizotia abyssinica (also called Oleiferous Guizotia).
Niger is very popular with most birds, goldfinches and tarins love it.
Niger is one of the few bird seeds with a good calcium/phosphorus ratio.
Canary grass is a nutritious seed particularly appreciated by many birds. Its high protein and fibre content makes it an essential food for the good health and vitality of birds. It is especially ideal for canaries, budgerigars, serins, and other small exotic birds.
Characteristics:
- Ingredients: 100% natural canary grass.
- Appearance: Elongated seeds, from pale yellow to light brown in colour.
- Nutritional Value: Rich in proteins (about 16%), fibres, and essential amino acids.
- Benefits:
- Promotes good digestion thanks to its fibre content.
- Contributes to the shine of plumage.
- Provides the necessary energy for birds' daily activities.

High-quality seeds with high fat content
- With a high content of vitamin E, B9, B5, B6, B1, B2, B3, and vitamin K.
- It has antioxidant properties.
- Excellent energy contribution.
- Rich in calcium, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, proteins, zinc, thiamine, pectin (cleanses the body).
Seed rich in protein, mainly present in pigeon mixes, appreciated by pigeons.
They have the property of binding to minerals such as calcium, iron and zinc and making them less bioavailable.
Thanks to its small black or pretty electric blue seeds, the poppy is recognizable among thousands. A cousin of the poppy, the poppy is known for its content of good fats and micronutrients essential for the proper functioning of the body.
