The flaxseed consists of 40 to 45% oil and 25% protein. Flaxseed preserves very well. It contains, in particular, two fatty acids with similar names (both derived from the word "lin"), linolenic acid (an omega-3) and linoleic acid.
The seed is used in animal feed, particularly for laying hens for which an increase in the omega-3 content of the eggs is desired.
Due to these properties, this seed aids digestion.
Millet is used in the diet of all birds: straight beaks and hooked beaks. In clusters, it's a delicacy they love.
Millet in clusters has a good protein and carbohydrate content and it also contains a large number of amino acids. Ideal to distract your birds and thus avoid pecking (pulling feathers).
We advised to give red millet for exotic birds. It is richer in protein than yellow millet.
The turnipseed is quite similar to rapeseed, with the difference being the more bitter flavour of the latter. Turnipseed is rich in protein and beneficial for enhancing singing, making it particularly interesting during the breeding season for canaries. However, as this seed is quite fatty, we recommend not exceeding 10% of your mix with turnipseed for colour canaries or posture canaries. For song canaries, turnipseed softens the song and can therefore be used at 30% of the mix: in this latter case, we recommend accompanying your bird's diet with liver support.
Carrot seeds are very rich in vitamins with a high proportion of vitamin A and carotene, as well as vitamin B, calcium and valuable carbohydrates.
Flaxseed is rich in omega 3, which is essential for the cardiovascular system.
These seeds, rich in fats and proteins, are particularly appreciated by wild birds. They will attract redpolls, grosbeaks, goldfinches, black-capped chickadees, sparrows, mourning doves, and a host of other birds to your garden. They are often used as a substitute for rapeseed, which is more expensive.
Rosehips are wild roses, whose rose hips are eaten in the fall, which are very rich in vitamin C.
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.
Striated sunflower is the basic seed of any parrot mixture. It is also used in mixtures for parakeets and exotic doves.

Practical information for giving sunflower seeds to birds in your garden:
Remember to regularly clean the feeders of your outdoor birds so that diseases and bacteria do not thrive.
Also consider setting feeders high up to prevent predators (such as cats, foxes, etc.) from targeting birds when they are eating.
