Probably one of the easiest Particle baits to get hold off. You'll find them in most pet shops. Even some of the big discount store like B&M in large quantities as well. But I suppose if you want to ensure quality.( Though most of these shops the quality looks good to me ) I'd go with one of the suppliers like Hinders, Kent particles etc. No doubt they shift a bit. Hopefully the stock not sitting round for to long... Or saying that most waters Ban them... So maybe they are not shifting big quality's.. think it's a case of suck it and see..

Funnily enough saw The Range selling 4kg and 12kg bags for £10 and £21 yesterday. Did wonder about the quality of them but all had a "best before" date so at least have some insight into what's fresh or not.

Isn't the range ones for birdie only didn't think it was safe to use these due to them being dangerous to the fish
I know a lot of Asian supermarkets have the5
1kg bags I think 2 for £5 and these are human grade

After size grading, the ones that usually go to animal feed are with the low oil/fat content and/or excessive signs of damage (pest or mechanical)
Are you sure?
