i just thought of this, but if you have sheep you sure don't want the yellow, orange, reddish blend because those seeds will stick in their fur if you let them in where the flowers are setting seeds. eek! that would be a mess. i'm sure there are other plant seeds that you don't want in sheep fur...
I was just thinking this same thing. I don't want burr type seeds here!

they're not really burry as some of them can be, but they do have a few little stickers at the ends which do like to grab onto things so they can be carried around.

in comparison to a sand bur they are like sand bur wannabees in little hoodies...
