Can you also use those blocks of white fat meant for frying ??

I don't see why not. Someone else (Shannie?) has saidOK to use lard, and
AFAIK vegetable fat is OK for birds (after all, peanuts are OK), so you
should be able to use either type. The main thing is a fat that is solid
at normal outside temperatures - easier done in the winter than it is
now! ;-)
