Carduelis Herb Bird Mix designed and created by Dutch breeder Andres Van Den Berg.

The mixture consists of high quality and fresh seeds, without dust. The seeds covered with dust are partly due to the fact that they are old and too dry and therefore of low quality. Mixes that contain a lot of dust give rise, for example, to respiratory infections " mycoplasmosis " , etc....

A unique blend because it contains only the necessary ones, avoiding those that have a harmful effect on the health of goldfinches. Many blends have added seeds, even for the price, that are not good for goldfinches. For example, rapeseed that actually causes liver problems in goldfinches! Or too oily seeds that birds love to eat, unsuitable because of its high fat content.

This mixture is composed of:

• Seeds without dust! (when you open the bag you can already smell the freshness)
• No harmful and fatty seeds (which will cause liver problems)
• Exclusive seeds that don't normally even appear in a standard blend
• Dried Oregano and Moringa Leaves

Flaxseed has a positive effect on the plumage of birds and is indispensable during the moulting period.

Millet: The most important substances in millet are amino acids, the essential amino acids needed. These cannot be produced by the bird itself. Therefore, these must be present in the diet. A bird needs about 20 amino acids for the formation of body proteins. The bird is not able to produce all the necessary amino acids itself; these amino acids (10 in number) must be added through the diet. If one of these amino acids is not sufficiently present in the diet, a physical deficiency occurs. With all its consequences for the health of the bird. The young grow little or not at all, permanent moult (permanent moult) and the results of reproduction are not forthcoming.
