Btw - your birds will think you're the BEST person ever if you bring them some hot oatmeal or other grains mixed with warm water, and maybe some black oil sunflower seeds. Our birds go crazy for it on a cold day.

cameragirl, we do the same thing, too!  They do love it!  I have also made them cooked tomatoes.  I love our girls.

I was just going through the seed catalogue from the farmer's co-op - they have the sort of seeds grown for animals and forage.  I'm thinking of growing some oats and field peas, both in the garden and loose on their range.  I realize I'm lucky I can grow these sorts of things, here.  The arid conditions the OP lives in would require a very different skill set.
