Can you believe there no bird seed for sale anywhere here??

Over the last week I've run down to about 5 remaining days & I could use some ideas for dry continuous access foods in case I can't get more for the time being!  Obviously they gets loads of greens in the morning and a 'hot' lunch and dinner.  Its not that I'm a particularly good owner, I just like the skin to remain on the knuckles of my fork hand

 

What I have so far:

Popcorn

Mixed nuts (crush before serve)

A few types of nuts in shell

Ryvita

Dreaded SF Seeds

 

What I can get:

Doggy bikkies

Hamster mix (looks a lot like Oodie Mix)

 

Any suggestions welcome!

My one aim is to serve the parrots in my care, to help those to weak to defend themselves, and bring alittle happiness into their lives, I prefer parrots to people but can handle them in moderation :)

And how about wholemeal or granary bread spread with some butter, peanut butter or a little honey?

Thanks I'll give all those a try regardless of the seed crisis. As usual the birds eat better than me.
