Do birds eat cannabis seeds first?

I've always been told if you throw out bird seed with cannabis seeds, the birds will eat the salad toppers first...

anyone here of this or actually test it?

Yes very true. Little known fact here: 40% of all bird populations in America decreased when hemp was made illegal. Took out the food supply real fast for most birds.

Yeah, they've looked at this and found that it causes the birds to eat more. Somehow eating the cannabis seeds first, makes the birds get hungrier and they just keep eating and eating.

actually after googling this subject, turns out the bird population did decline and that hemp/mj seeds are wild birds favorite...

Don't know about da boids but my little doggie likes the crunchy dead leaves and eats em right up. Doesn't like the fresh ones in the clean up tray, just the crunchy ones.
I was worried about him choking on a big one and tried to take it away but he wasn't having it and skedaddled with it.
I guess the connoisseurs like a nice cure, no matter how many legs they got.

I have also found this to be true. I feed the wild birds where I live and they almost always go for the hemp seeds first. I told a friend about this a few years ago and he didnt believe me. I gave him some for his parakeets and he reported back in amazement that his birds did eat the hemp seeds first. Almost all living things love cannabis, in one form or another. It's is good for them too.
