Are there peanuts in this seed?

There are no peanuts that I know of in this seed.

Are these unhulled seeds?

No these seeds are whole that the birds crack with their beaks to obtain the moist contents inside the outer shell that protects the seed they consume. They are very adept at cracking the outer shell to get at the consumable inside they enjoy to sustain them.

The description says the seeds are hulled and then fortified but comments here say the seeds are not hulled. Is there sugar in this?

Some of the seeds are hulled: the oats and one of the millions, to avoid non-edible bulk in the package. There is no added sugar and no added fat in this seed mix and no pellets.

I just received my order today. the manufacture date is august 2016, which is almost two years ago. is this normal, or did i get shipped an old bag?

That doesn't sound too good. Doesn't it have an expiration date. My seeds are usually good for two years after I purchase them. I would contact the manufacturer. Seeds lose their nutritional value with time.

Les perruches apprécient une alimentation équilibrée et variée pour rester en bonne santé et heureuses. Les mélanges de graines de qualité supérieure spécialement formulés pour les perruches, combinés à des fruits frais et des légumes, constituent une excellente source de nutriments essentiels. Assure-toi de renouveler régulièrement l'eau dans leur abreuvoir et de maintenir une alimentation fraîche. En offrant une alimentation diversifiée et de qualité, tu contribues au bien-être de tes perruches et favorises leur vitalité. N'oublie pas de consulter un vétérinaire pour des conseils spécifiques sur l'alimentation de tes précieuses perruches. C'est la sorte que j'utilise depuis leur achats en animalerie et elles semblent bien satisfaite. J'en commande régulièrement . Le sac est tooujours étanche et il est refermable ce qui est très pratique pour ne pas mettre de graine partout
