Hi I am new to this forum and have been feeding wild birds for about 2 years, I feed them seed, fat ball, shredded peanuts and suet pellets
Since lockdown I have been ordering feed online and in bulk to cut back on postage costs. Consequently I have ended up with a few tubs of fat ball still unopened.
I do not know if this true or not but was told that fat balls could choke baby birds if fed to them, so I never use them from Spring onwards
My question is, will they keep till next Winter? I have ground feeders and hanging feeders in a dog cage for the small birds and hanging feeders in the tree for the bigger birds. I know I could put out a few more feeders in the tree, keep filling them and these fat balls would go in no time so if they wont keep that is what I will have to do
Would appreciate some advice on this
