I was wondering if anyone makes their own seed mix. If you do what do you put in it? Thank you

I do. The seeds that I put in it are all seeds that I know my birds will eat: basic parakeet mix (millet, canary grass seed, oat groats), sunflower, safflower, buckwheat and hemp. But seeds don't provide every nutrient that a bird needs so they also get a variety of other foods: pellets, nutriberries, veggies, sprouted seeds/grains, etc.
