Straight Seeds

What should I feed the birds?

Straight bird foods are a great way to feed wild birds and are a great source of energy all year round. We have a wide range of premium quality straight foods, from Sunflower Hearts to Nyjer Seeds or Peanuts. Whatever wild bird seed you are looking for, our wildlife specialists ensure our bird food is of the highest quality.

Sunflower Hearts and Seeds

Sunflower seed hearts are one of the easiest ways to feed wild birds and offer a very-high amount of energy. Our Premium Whole Sunflower Hearts are the most complete, high-quality option you will find and are de-husked. De-husked seeds are great because they can be enjoyed by a wider range of species, reduce the chance of disease and are much cleaner to use. You can enjoy our Sunflower Hearts as whole seeds or kibbled (chopped) which makes them even easier for the birds to eat. If you are looking to offer variety, then our black sunflower seeds and oil-rich and cost-effective.

Peanuts for Birds

Peanuts are a traditional bird food, being high in oil and loved by a wide range of bird species. Our Premium Whole Peanuts are very high-quality to ensure there are no detectable signs of Anflatoxin. Other peanuts may contain these and it is dangerous to birds, so with peanuts quality is very important. You can also feed the birds using our kibbled peanuts which are very close to a bird’s natural diet. Robins and Great Tits will love kibbled peanuts.

Nyjer Seeds

How do I attract Goldfinches to my garden? Nyjer seed is a great way to vary the food you offer the birds in your garden, and it is loved by Goldfinches and other colourful birds. They are rich in oil and have played a key role in increasing the populations of our native bird species. Nyjer seed does require a specialist bird feeder with smaller ports to minimise waste.

Oystershell grit bird food supplements

What should you feed the birds during nesting/breeding season? Oystershell grit is a great supplement to aid the bird’s digestion and is a brilliant source of calcium for birds. The calcium helps birds to form healthy and strong eggs. This can be mixed with other bird foods or fed from a bird feeding table.
