10KG MALTBYS STORES SUET PELLETS WITH INSECTS WILD BIRD FOOD


Good
These are better than others I have used, not so powdery as others, slightly firmer with a lot less waste.
The birds like these a lot, sometimes even turning their noses up at the worms alongside them !!!!!!
Good price with a good delivery time, I'm using Maltbys more and more for my bird food as the product seems to be better than most.
Birds love it
Great product and great service and delivery. The birds cant wait to get to it, and the starlings are feeding their young with it at the moment.
Birds prefer them
I have put these out along with insect pellets from Twootz and the birds in my garden pick these out from the mix before going on to the others. They would get 5 stars if the price was more in line with the Twootz but despite this they are the preferred purchase at present

Wild Bird Dried Mealworms 3ltr


The birds in my garden LOVE these!
The birds in my garden absolutely LOVE these dried mealworms.
No need to soak them, I just scatter them on the ground and the bird-table and they attract a variety of birds. I see robins, thrushes, blackbirds, sparrows, starlings, bullfinch, chaffinches, coal-tit and some other finches and tits that I have not yet identified. All the birds seem to love these mealworms.
I feel I have to ration them as the birds will eat as many as I want to put out.
I usually put 1-3 handfuls on the table and then cover with a standard wild-bird seed to make the birds work at least a little bit.

I have tried live mealworms, but they are a real hassle to store, and even to put out, they dont hang around the table.. To be honest, I think the birds prefer these dried ones.

I last year I bought dried mealworms from the RSPB site but prices seem to have increased dramatically this year. Certainly at the moment the price from this supplier is good value. Packaging was...
special treat for your feathered friends
My sister has chickens and uses mealworms as a protein treat for her "girls". She sprinkles a small amount of mealworms in amongst the drift wood and stones that are in their fenced in area and the chickens go searching and digging for them.

The meal worms provide a high protein and high energy boost for any bird and are, therefore, worth considering for your feathered friends, domestic and wild, especially in the winter months when natural insects are hard for them to find.

Fortunately, the chickens seem to keep the voracious starlings away, so the smaller birds (sparrows, dunnocks, wrens, chaffinches, robins, etc) get to pick up the spare that the chickens can't find.

Mealworms are usually the larvae of the black meal beetle, but can be from the yellow meal beetle. It is possible to grow your own if you want to, but these dried meal worms are a good substitute.

You can use these dried from the tub (as we do) or rehydrate them by soaking...
Dried mealworms. Easy or what?
Forget all you read about dried mealworms not being the real thing. Rehydrated for 15 mins in warm water and the birds enjoy them and wait for their quota each morning and evening. These particular brand are good quality, with large worms and not a crumbled mess. [My previous experience when buying through the post has not been very successful]. They come at a reasonable price in a very good range of tub sizes and delivery was spot on.

I will certainly continue with this product as it is an all round succes with me and my feathered friends!

Chapelwood Wild Bird Suet Balls 75 Box


Gone in 60 Seconds!
Well, not quite gone in 60 seconds, but the birds couldn't get stuck in quickly enough! They absolutely love these suet balls! I have two large feeders that hold 20 of these in total, and they were scoffed in just a day and a half! You'd think that that was all I was feeding them with, but I put out a whole range of foods. My only concern is...how on Earth do I keep up the supply?! Highly recommended.
Suet Balls
Good product, birds seem to enjoy them! There are no plastic nets on suet balls which are good if you put them into a feeder, creating less waste.
same but more
The same lovely quality suet balls as in the 50 tub only more. Works out slightly cheaper though you do get a bit of breakage in the box. The birds don't lose out , just put the crumby bits on the bird table. Great value way to buy.

25 kg Dawn Chorus Original Flavour Wild Bird Seed Mix


Its feeding time
Birds not as keen as with other brands
There appears to be a lot of wasted food
There appears to a lot of "filler" in this product
Great seed
Good quality bird seed and not messy. All different types of birds will eat this and very quickly! This was great value when I purchased it and it will last a long time. Thanks very much.
Yummy
Plenty of birds in garden when we put this out. The sparrows seem to like it best, with doves and pigeons also taking their fair share.

10KG MALTBYS STORES NIGER SEED WILD BIRD FOOD NYJER


fantastic
Huge bag of nyger seed at a great price, and some very happy finches. I have two feeders and this should keep them full for six months or more
Very popular
This is my second 10 kg bag of Nigerseed within 5 weeks from this seller. We have a resident flock of Goldfinches and the nigerseed is disappearing very fast, so no complaints from them. Also the bag is much better value than buying smaller quantities from a petshop.
Niger seed
Good quality seed at a good price. The Goldfinches love it. I've used it all this season, and have had a garden full of every variety of small bird.

20Kg Wild Bird Seed, Bird food


My favourite bird seed.
I've been using Seed Supreme for years. My garden birds make short work of it and I haven't found another brand which seems to work as well. By that I mean this one doesn't fly all over the place in the wind. Summer or winter, they get through a sack a month using two feeders.
Charlies had the best price I have found, short of BOGOFs and so as long as they keep that I'll be coming back for more. My birds demand it!
bird seed
This is a very good product,the birds are certainly enjoying it.It has a good variety of seeds and corn in it.I would buy it again.
Birds seemed to be OK with it
What arrived wasn't what was shown in the image but an "in-house" version of the product (I assume anyway). Lots of large grains, and the birds weren't too taken with them, but they still scoffed it, just discarding what they didn't want. Now have all sorts of fun stuff growing around the bird feeder....

25 kg Dawn Chorus Sunflower Hearts For Wild Birds (12.5 kg x 2)


The birds come in there droves!
We have 9 feeders of which 3 are filled with the Sunflower Hearts and they are filled every other day. The nice thing about this brand is there doesn't appear to be any waste in the bag its all seed.
Twoots Dawn Chorus Sunflower Hearts
I found too much wheat mixed in with this order which upsets my feeding system, this has not happened with previous orders, I expect sunflower hearts to be just that.
Good Quality Sunflower Hearts & Good Seller
The sunflower hearts were the cheapest price I could find, and were delivered within a few days, in a big sturdy box. They seem to be good quality, with no bulking up with other materials. The birds certainly approve! Goldfinches and tits in particular seem to love sunflower hearts. :)

Gardman 25L Wild Bird Feed Storage Bin


no more mice able to get my bird feed :)
This is a really large storage tim but it's great as now the pesky mice in my shed can't chew their way through this to get to my bird feed. It also prevents me getting scared when the mice jump up at me. Fast delivery too.
On a completely separate thing - my kids love the large cardboard box it arrived it :)
flummox the squirrels.
The Gardman 25L Wild Bird Feed Storage Bin is excellent for storing the dog's food and the wild bird seeds.
Actually bought it to store the chicken feed but need a larger size, still managed to flummox the squirrels
and mice in the shed who had gnawed there way through the toughened plastic bin .
Great storage
Sturdy and water tight - and in this deep freeze the lid has not got stuck.

Peanuts Wild Bird Food 25Kg Sack


Great quality, but...
Watch out for the sacks. They're made from that hemp-like material, which has lots of space in the weaving. Typically my supply lasts a long time, and I've had a problem with an infestation of moths because of this sack. They get in there, lay the eggs, and the larvae feed on the plentiful supply of peanuts.

Eventually they weave little silk-strand cocoons and turn into moths themselves. They are a nightmare to get rid of if they get into the house though - they eat cereals, rice, flour (they love flour!), pasta, clothes... the list is endless. It's not nice to see little wormy things in your food when you're hungry.

So to summarise - keep the sack outdoors and you'll be ok.

UKPetSupplies 1Kg Dried Mealworms for Wild Birds Free Delivery


It's fast and furious, in the dried mealworm round!
Being the proud owner of two feeding stations that see significantly more bird activity than I do, I finally decided to overcome my squeamishness and get myself 1kg of mealworms. They are positively skin-crawling in appearance, but I am happy to be doing the very best I can for my feathered friends. I am already forking out a small fortune every week for coconut halves, fat balls, peanuts and seed, but what is the point of having savings nowadays anyway?

I targeted the feeding station in the front garden, since it is right outside my window. What I saw, was incredible - terrifying even, in a Tippi Hedren kind of a way. One starling, motoring through these mealworms like the winner of an eating competition. Followed by another starling, and then another. Within five minutes I had a small flock outside, all arguing and shouting at each other. Great entertainment, even better than 'EastEnders' (mind you, that's not much of a recommendation). But personally scary, once it...
Dried mealworms 1Kilo.
Great product,1 kilo of dried mealworms is a considerable amount of feed.The robins and blackbirds love them.I carry a small tub of
them with me when I am gardening and throw a few to the robins who devour them immediately.Will purchase again.
God Buy
Pleasantly pleased with the product which was competively priced. It was quickly despatched. The garden birds all seem to enjoy it.

Extra Select Cheep and Chirpy Wild Bird Mix 20 Kg


Not so chirpy
I thought I'd give this one a try, given the price.
On opening the bag, there was a fairly stale/musty smell, making me think it had been in storage in a grain warehouse somewhere for a loooong time.
It appears my tweets and squirrels agreed.
Even the wood pigeons (flying rats!) and corbies left the majority of this.
Will not be buying again.
Very cheap as the name suggests
Unfortunately it is a little bit of a false economy as there is a lot of waste in the seed and the birds are not as keen on it. Not something I will purchase again.
Bird Food
I liked the price, but the birds were not keen on the product, the pigeons stoped coming to our garden.

LUXURY WILD BIRD FEEDING STATION BIRD FEEDER TABLE SEED TRAY NEW


Luxury Bird Feeding Stand.......
Easy to put together,did not take long,taller than our other stand so the birds like it further from the ground.The birds now think it is the HILTON.More birds turning up to use it,they like to perch on the tall arches,then go down to the food...M. Titlemouse
Excellent value for money feeding station
I would highly recommend this bird feeding station as it is excellent value for money, very sturdy and aesthetically pleasing, with a deep bronze finish. It offers more hooks for hanging feeders than many others I have seen online for a similar price, with 4 for the top of the feeder, plus an additional hanging bracket which you can add if you want. The feeder arrived within 3 days and was very simple to put together. I would advise putting the bottom pole at least halfway into the ground, as this feeder is fairly tall and can sway a bit in the wind or when heavier birds land on it if not securely anchored. Birds seem to really like it and started using it almost immediately, with the bigger ones like doves and blackbirds using the feeding tray whilst sparrows, finches, blue tits and starlings use the hanging feeders. Unfortunately the squirrels are also quite keen on it, so I would advise not putting it too near fences.

Definitely worth the money for the enjoyment of...
Just great
Just a great item the birds love it ! Easy to put together and well made to I would buy another one for the back garden.

Harrisons Wild Bird Premium Fat Balls x 100 High Energy Food For The Winter


Party in My Garden!
100 Fat Balls For Wild Birds

I really like these Fat Balls. I have lots of birds coming into my garden so I need lots to feed them but at a good price. These balls fit the bill. All the birds go straight for them. They're filled with different goodies - something for every bird. Whatever else I put out on the table or in the trees, the birds go first to the fat balls. The activity and noise levels go crazy when I refill the ball-holder. A real Party in My Garden!
FAVOURITE FOOD
THE BIRDS SIMPLY LOVE THESE FAT BALLS AND HAVE EATEN THEM ALL UP IN A FEW WEEKS. NOW HAVE TO GET SOME MORE. NOT SURE WE CAN KEEP UP THE PACE.
Great value
The birds (and squirrels) love these fat balls. As they come in a large bag some do break and crumble, but these leftovers make a good sprinkle for a bird table or for ground feeding. 100 won't last that long, but very good value.

Bird Seed
I received this bag of robin and song bird seed yesterday. I fed it to the birds yesterday and they seemed to be very happy to get it. As that has to be the criteria for rating it I feel that the seed was of good quality. Many thanks, I will certainly use this supplier again.
Great Value
I must say that all the other bird foods I have bought before from other sources ,there has always been some seed/s left that they dont eat---------------Not with this it all disappears very quickly .

Dawn Chorus Niger Seed For Wild Birds (12.5 kg)


Delivery address
I ordered this as I wanted to buy in bulk and gave my address as asked - a few days later I was contacted by the seller as they couldn't deliver to my address. When asked why they told me they had changed their courier and the new one didn't deliver here - I wouldn't have ordered from them if I had known this at the time of ordering. I had to arrange for the item to be sent to my daughters address as they could deliver there. Firtunately the goods are as described.
Where are the Goldfinches?
Product & service great. Still waiting for the finches to find it but patience is a virtue! Maybe they don't like the cold weather?
Happy goldfinches!
The Goldfinches love it. It arrived within two days of ordering and it was packaged well unlike a previous one I received which had burst!

Extra Select Wild Bird Peanuts 12.75 Kg


Great value, and a moth-proof sack
The last big sack of nuts I bought was made of Burlap, and it was easy for moths to get in, lay eggs and infest it with their larvae. It led to the house being infested too, which was a nightmare to clear.

These nuts come in a plastic sack which, when sealed, is impossible for them to get into.

While waiting for these to arrive, I have been using nuts from Waitrose - there are still some of them out in the garden, but the birds prefer these ones; they are quite small with a light brown/orangey skin (the nuts, not the birds!).

I can't find out any information about Aflatoxins regarding this brand (see comment), but the plastic sack helps prevent it somewhat, I hope.
bird nuts
I was very impressed with the bird nuts this time, excellent quality I will be purchasing again
Thank you for your fast delivery.

VERY DISAPPOINTED
Took the survey sent to my e mail address mid August, referring to the pet survey and waited for my 10% discount gift certificate to use on my next order...............nothing!
As you are the only pet supplier I use (sunflower hearts/peanuts) the e mail must have come from you, so why no gift certificate???
I must say I am very disappointed.
