You could, but not too many sunflower seeds, and you really need to look into the nutrition, to make sure that it's well balanced.
I have 10 gerbils, and my between my boyfriend and his 2 siblings, there's a rat, hamster, and 3 gerbils. We mixed KayTee Exact food, with a generic gerbil/hamster blend, with some rat food, a little cat food, some oatmeal, and some cociteal blend, (just for the heck of it) They love it! But you see, our base was gerbil foods, and with the Kaytee Exact food, that alone is 16% protine, and it's pretty balanced. I'm new to mixing my own foods, but I'd say to start with a gerbil food blend, and just add from there. The Kaytee Exact is fun to add to. It looks like cat food! Piff put a picture of it up here in one of the newer posts.
