Highlighted Reviews
"No this one has everything he likes. Just need to mix with other food or he will get over weight with just seeds"
"Got this as a treat for my Lady Bird. She won't even pick out the things she likes. Called the company, they asked if it was stored in a dark cool place. Hear it was. I keep seed in fridge. So how does Chewy store Volkman bird seed?"
