Where do you buy your mixed nuts???

Hi
Where do you buy your mixed shell-on nuts??? I cannot find any locally. I am almost out and I have a two very healthy greenwings. I changed the goldenfeast they eat over to colossal parrot instead of their usually Schmitts original. Any info will be helpful

I actually stock up around Christmas and store them in large popcorn tins to get me through the lean times. However, you can try here:

I have some other links, but I'll have to find them and post later.

I did buy 120lb+ when they went on sale after christmas but I gave half them away to a friend with 9 macaws who needed them.
Thanks for the link to JJhulls, they only sell 3lb bags and Diamond doesn't have any....I am bummin'
The colossal parrot by golden feast has the shell on mixed nuts so hopefully that will get us by until we can find some. My two greenwings will wat as many nuts as you give them. My new GW, needs to put on a little weightso I am feeding them extra

I buy mine at the health food store. They usually have a good selection, as well as seeds you can sprout, increasing nutrients many times over.
