I am spending a fortune on Fat Balls for the birds every week. Does anyone
know of a receipe I could make up myself for the birds.
Try looking at the CJ birdfoods website - they sell a 'home kitchen' for
making your own fatballs so they may also indicate ingredients.
basically, you need bird-type food - dried fruit, oats, tiny bits of
bacon, remains of grated cheese, then you melt some suet to glue it all
together. Exact proportions aren't important!
Suggestions I've seen include - drilling holes in a log and packing that
with your home made fat cake, doing the same with coconut shells, or
packing it into open fir cones.
