Suet pellets for birds - any recommendations?

4 replies

PositivelyGlowing · 22/04/2024 15:13

Up until recently I've bought suet for birds which apparently has berry juice mixed in (which is why the pellets are pink). Unfortunately the latest batch I bought smelled very moldy so I of course won't feed it to the birds and will be getting a refund.

Any recommendations for alternative suet pellets please? I could use the normal Atora but that would work out very expensive. I like to buy a large bag at a time, maybe 10kg or more.

Thanks

They prefer sunflower seeds!

Yes, sorry, I should have said. Bought some of these:

Very good product, the birds love them too.

I buy vegan suet and melt in a pan on a low heat and stir in sunflower seeds and sometimes other sometimes other bird seed and combine.

I let it cool down a bit and then use an ice cream scoop to make balls.

Then when complete cooled down I freeze them over night.

Cheap and easy.
