We have a feeder set up and I was looking at bird seed online at places such as amazon etc and the reviews are mixed most saying contain too much wheat etc
We have sparrows and starlings, right now we are buying suet blocks at £2 each from homebase and mixed seed from pets at home, but its not very cost effective. The suet blocks and the seed feeder the birds are finishing in 24hr as we have a few familys of starrlings that are regulars. The only thing that gets left is the peanut feeder which the sparrows go to when there is nothing else, and nobody has even touched the nyjer feeder. We give them live mealworms every so often as treats.
Im after the following
- 10-20kg of good mixed seed
- 10 or more good quality suet blocks
- Suet balls
- A suet ball feeder
Could any of you recommend me some seed especially that you buy and doesnt have too much of the stuff the birds dont eat etc. And does nto cost a fortune. Same with the blocks and balls.
Thanks
