Ear Corn
Non-GMO. Offer ear corn to the squirrels in your backyard and MAYBE they’ll leave the birdfeeders alone!
Peanut Splits
A great source of protein during the cold winter months. Woodpeckers, titmice, chickadees, nuthatches, & blue jays love these. Even some insect eating birds enjoy the peanut splits!
Nyjer Seed (Not Thistle )
One of our most popular seeds. It originates from the African yellow daisy (Guizotia Abyssinica), has a very high oil content & is high in calories. Goldfinches love this imported, sterilized seed that will not sprout in your yard. It must be used in special tube feeders!
Safflower Seed
A white seed, high in protein, fat & fiber enjoyed by cardinals, nuthatches, titmice & black-capped chickadees. Most blackbirds, squirrels & raccoons do not like this seed due to its bitter flavor. It is great in any feeder!
Sunflower Chips
Hulled, nutritional and ready to eat, sunflower chips leave no mess on your deck or patio & won’t sprout in your garden. Loved by almost all backyard birds. Even ground feeders such as robins, mockingbirds, & catbirds enjoy the chips.
Woodpecker Favorite
A yummy food for our beloved woodpeckers. Chock full of peanut splits, sunflower chips, suet nuggets, raisins, cranberries, rendered beef suet & shelled pumpkin seeds.
Cracked Corn
Kernels of corn that are dried and cracked into small pieces loaded with protein and fiber. Enjoyed by wild turkeys, juncos, house sparrows & mallards. Please note: We do not use cracked corn in any of our bird seed blends.
Peanuts in the Shell
A high source of protein and fat. Enjoyed by crows, woodpeckers & blue jays to name a few. They can also be scattered on the ground to keep the squirrels off your feeders.
White Millet
An inexpensive meal that provides essential nutrients. A favorite for doves, juncos, towhees & cardinals!
Hot Salsa Chips
Sunflower Chips and Cayenne Pepper. Enjoyed by your backyard birds but not by squirrels or other backyard critters!
