Kaytee Supreme Dove Food 5 pounds

Update 3/08/2025: Hey, Amazon! Still not stocking this as a basic SKU? What gives!?Update 11/16/24: Still loving this stuff! But, hey, Amazon, you really need to start stocking this again! I'm not about to pay as much for shipping, as the product itself costs! Other online vendors sell this for around $6.99/Bag, with FREE SHIPPING when the minimum qualifier is met. I can easily meet the minimum for free shipping, especially when adding my parrot food... I'd much rather get "product" for my money than incur shipping costs!Sincerely,RayBMy retired racing pigeon, Vinnie, loves this seed mix! And yes, he even eats the big, round peas!I make a proprietary mix based on this food, plus dried split peas, dried lentils, thistle seed, and a scoop from the outdoor finch mix I buy in 25 lb. bags.Vinnie sometimes binges on favorites, much like human persons nicking all the cashews and pecans out of the mixed nuts!I was told that Vinnie wouldn't eat split peas, but the occasional pea-green poops say otherwise!I was told pigeons won't eat thistle seed, but Vinnie's occasional jet-black poops say otherwise!And yes, I know what I'm doing. Ive had Vinnie since Feb. 2014. And my previous pigeon-companion, Bernie, was my best friend for one month shy of eighteen years; and as a PMV survivor, Bernie had serious health issues. Bernie, in particular, loved thistle seed!Note: Under ideal conditions, pigeons have been known to live over thirty years. Pigeons can make wonderful animal companions.These seed mixes are evidently quite "aromatic", as Vinnie will readily pounce on a freshly offered mix, even when "exposed seeds" are right there for the taking. So I keep his seed mix in a large, sealed, teddy bear cookie jar. And I keep his other seeds in large, sealed plastic tubs. I'm not sure how pigeons "taste", but they definitely have their favorites, and freshness certainly matters to them!PIGEONS FOREVER!RayB

I live in a heavily wooded area with wonderful wildlife and beautiful birds abound. My home's yard always has doves that visit, but a couple of years ago I rescued a baby with a broken wing. Noah, my special little dude, grew up healthy and happy, but he is still unable to fly. He's cage-bound but handheld and tame and he is a big part of my family. Even my three dogs enjoy his coos and company. I have been feeding Noah this dove seed ever since he was an adult. I also feed it to his dove friends outdoors so that he can visit with them during the cooler months. It's a terrific product and very well priced.

Thank you 🙏🏼

Pigeons love it and I feed them twice a day laying it on the ground in my backyard. Been buying this for the past few months as there seems to be not many alternatives for dove food. Small birds like sparrow does eat but leaves half. Wish it was available in bigger quantity for a cheaper price.

This is an excellent product for birds. I buy it regularly. The price remained the same despite everyone else doubling when oil prices spiked. It's consistently good and has some nutrients too. However, I wish the manufacturers would remove the balls. See the pic of the balls collected for months. No one eats them except once in a while by the large Eurasian Mourning Doves (invasive species in FL) and rats. So I remove them before I add them to the feeders. I was going to see if the large ducks would like them. Or I might throw them in the back to let them seed and grow. I still thank the company for making good wild bird food.

My local doves go bonkers for this seed. Very little goes to waste so it's a great value and much cleaner than other types of bird feed. It's a good mix of high quality seed doves can't resist.

This dove mix is the foundation diet that I feed my pet fancy pigeons: fantail, holle cropper, and my favorite, pigmy pouter. I supplement this excellent Kaytee Dove and Pigeon Food by mixing into it some of each of these, about 1/2 lb of each: chipped or whole shelled sunflower seeds, safflower (above the amount already in it), yellow popcorn ("...."), lentils, split peas, and mung beans. All these supplemental seeds increase the protein and fat values of my final mix. I am not a pigeon breeder, just a fancy pigeon lover with only about a half dozen friendly pet pigeons in my small garden loft.MC

The mourning doves (even the sparrows) eat this like it’s going out of style! The only pieces they won’t eat is the milo (the biggest seeds), so I just strain those pieces out now. Also, the quality of the food is top notch, and the price is a steal. I highly recommend!
