Feeding the Hungry

Never mind how I like it. good thing its so affordable- Its the fastest consumed wild bird seed I've ever loaded into the feeder. Its the first bag I've used where it states having a cherry flavor. Many sparrows, wrens, chickadees, cardinals, tufted titmice and as its warmed up, now redwing blackbirds. Mourning doves clean up what ends up on the ground.

They all love it

Not only do the birds love it, but the squirrels, chipmunks and even the bunnies, all gathered for a feast. I worried because it was mostly small pieces and not many sunflower seeds but they didn't mind. Great value.

I love the vibrant packaging, it's really fun and perky! This bird food is great for attracting all kinds of birds, especially since it's a year round feed. The cherry flavor being incorporated into it is so unique. It has all the nutrients needed for a healthy balanced diet for our outdoor friends and works with all types of feeders. I definitely recommend this for anyone looking for an everyday food for birds.

Living with a backyard that faces a wooded area, we seem to have all kinds of wild animals and multiple species of birds. I hear woodpeckers, see hawks and even hear a rare owl.in summer. For over a decade, we watch a male and female cardinal return every Spring to rebuild a nest in one of our small trees. During a recent trip to our Sam's Club, I came across the Peddington brand of Wild bird seed. It has been several years since we first built our bird feeder, hanging it in one of our backyard Oak trees. This week we enjoyed our first snow free week in two months, and surprisingly our temps reached 50 degrees! I decided to purchase the 50 lb bag to fill out feeders, and help the multiple different birds which live in our backyard and neighboring woods. Within the hour, we were enthused to see several birds enjoy the healthiness seeds. I am so happy to help our bird neighbors, with a healthy option, as this bag of seeds offers a higher quality of food during the winter, when animal and bird feed options are rare.

decent wild bird food for the price

The birds love this stuff! Plenty of sunflower seeds and a variety of others. I would give it the fifth star if it didn't have so much chaff and sticks in it.

Smaller Bag

10lbs less than what it used to be, now it is a 40lb bag instead of a 50lb bag. Also, it has a lot of fillers like always, so that has not yet changed. Companies are trying to make everything 20-25% less to send the illusion that the price has not changed. When in fact it has increase by at least 30%. Buyers be aware.

No fruit scent or pieces

Purchased mainly for the fruit additives and honestly th only fruit in this mix is “printed in the bag”; but seriously, I'd say there is NONE. None visually and no detectable scent or evidence there is fruit. Disappointed as the scent draws other feeders to the feed such as peacocks and foxes.

Our birds turned their beaks up at this one

Neighborhood birds are protesting. They picked out the sunflower seeds but left piles of millet on the lawn which we needed to clean up and throw away. We have half the bag left, will probably waste it. We bought this because of the low price but will end up wasting most of it.
