Good day gents,

I am looking for some guidance on a new nut based/ birdfood mix I want to try.
I'm from SA and ingredients are bloody scarce around these parts and highly expensive.

I've got the below in mind, for around 1kg base mix.

Semo - 100
Soya - 100
Tigernut flour - 150
Peanut flour - 100
Calves Milk - 120
CLO - 100
Supergold 60 - 50
Whey Protein - 50
Crushed Hemp - 30
Egg Albumin - 30
Soy/ Pea protein isolate - 50
Casseinate - 30
Wheatgerm - 30
Kelp Powder - 30
Brocacell Yeast - 30
Betaine HCL - 5

Liquids I'm thinking going with a nut hydro a local supplier is selling.
Perhaps some concentrated flavours?

Nut based boilies are scarce and I not widely used, I'm trying to do something
different then the next oke fishing on the same lake. I've been doing really well
on a Tuna Krill mix this past year, but fear the misses might kick me out of the house
considering the delicate aromas!

Any input is welcome.

Cheers
christian

Far too complicated for any mix but especially a nut mix. You don't need half the ingredients you have listed.
Also, and I've learned this the hard way, use ingredients in multiples of 50g otherwise you will end up with a shed full of bags of small quantities of left over ingredients that you have paid a lot of money for.

Agreed that massively over complicated

Simplify it

Whey 80 - 50
Calcium - 50
Tigernut meal ( better than flour ) - 250
Peanut pro - 100
Bird food - 200
Vanilla meal - 150
Semo - 150
Fenugreek - 50

Alot easier to keep Ingrediants fresher and will catch you fish

As both other posts have said, .far too many ingredients. Also no need to add any flavours to a nut mix, the nut itself is all the flavour you will ever need

Agh sorry buddy didn't realise where you was until I've just looked. It should be mate but see how it rolls and feels.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
