Chia is a sage. It is an annual plant that can reach 1 m in height, and its scientific name is Salvia hispanica.
The composition of the chia seed closely resembles that of other mucilaginous seeds like flaxseed and psyllium. Unlike flaxseed, chia does not have anti-nutritional factors, which limit the use of flaxseed without prior heat treatment. The anti-nutritional factors are cyanogenic glycosides or linatins, inhibitors of vitamin B6 that prevent its action. Chia also has a much more pleasant taste than flaxseed, and birds are more willing to consume it.

The composition of chia seeds closely resembles that of other mucilaginous seeds like flaxseeds and psyllium. Unlike flaxseeds, however, chia does not have anti-nutritional factors, which limit the use of flaxseeds without prior heat treatment. The anti-nutritional factors are cyanogenic glycosides or linatins, inhibitors of vitamin B6 that prevent its action. Additionally, chia has a much more pleasant taste than flaxseeds and birds consume it more readily.
Chia sage seeds are rich in flavonols (myricetin, quercetin, kaempferol), flavonol glycosides, chlorogenic acids, and caffeic acid.
They are rich in proteins and fibres. With a variable rate, ranging from 16 to 23% protein, they are higher than wheat (14.7%) and maize (14%). They are also very rich in lipids containing a high proportion of omega-3 fatty acids (alpha-linolenic acid represents 68% of the lipids or 21% of the total) and a favourable omega-3 to omega-6 ratio of around 3-4.
Strengths: Chia seeds provide a good source of calcium and phosphorus and a very good source of dietary fibre and manganese.
Chia has good antioxidant activity provided by its polyphenols (chlorogenic, caffeic acids, and flavonols).
Pine seeds are a good source of Phosphorus, Magnesium, Zinc, Manganese, Copper, Iron, Vitamin E, K, B1, B2, B3, B9.
Millet contains magnesium, phosphorus, iron, potassium, manganese, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin PP (nicotinic acid) and vitamin B5.

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).
We advised giving 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.
Clover stimulates the immune system and slows down cellular ageing through its excellent antioxidant properties. Rich in vitamins B, C, E and provitamin A.
Buckwheat is a seed that is very low in fat but rich in carbohydrates. This seed is ideal for feeding show finches and European birds.
Birds like to remove the shells from peanuts and then eat the peanuts. Peanuts are a source of energy, which is very important for the long winter months.
Unpeeled peanuts can be given to parrots as a treat.
Peeled peanuts are very popular treats for parrots.
They are to be distributed sparingly because they are rich.
Ideal food to fill your wild bird dispensers, they will bring the necessary fat to the birds to spend the winter more easily.
The favorite of chickadees and a real treat for many birds.
Properties of Pine or Larix seeds.
Anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antispasmodic,
Antiseptic, anti-infectious (pneumococci),
Decongestant of the small pelvis and prostate,
Diuretic
Expectorant, tonic for the respiratory organs.
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.
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.
Onion seeds are rich in minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants.
