What brand(s) of flax seed do you buy, if you don't mind me asking? And should it be whole or ground? I am thinking of adding it to our birds' vegetables.

Yum! Is Yupik flaxseed good?

I’ve heard that it’s more nutritional ground but I don’t usually do it. I think it’s Red Mill. I just get whatever is at the grocery store

Yes. They make a lot of human food seeds like Chia, oats groats and Chia. I buy them on AMAZON.

I’ve used Yupik as well. It’s a Canadian company.

I think either is fine, but ground mixed into chop/veggies gets them eating more, I believe, because it sticks to other food & gives it a nutty flavor.

Going to give this a try. Anything to encourage veggies!
