Default Hungry Birds
In article ,
lid says...
Sounds normal for here where we (the birds and I - "I" in the sense
that I put the stuff out for them) normally get through 26 kilos of
sunflower hearts and 13 kilos of peanuts a month.



Ouch, that sounds expensive! How many feeders do you have? (I have 2
sunflower and one of the peanut and niger) Where do you get your feed?

Last lot I bought online from Arkwildlife and what you get through in a
month would cost around £80 - £90 depending on grade.

By the way, is the premium grade of peanut and sunflower hearts worth
the extra, or does it encourage the birds to eat more!
