To me, it seems like a choice between buying Tesco cornflakes and Kelloggs cornflakes but I'm a newbie to this. Can any of you share your thoughts on which brand is best to get and which brand I should avoid. Can the birds really tell a difference?

Thanks very much!
My feeders a standard metal mesh ones for peanuts, perspex ones with 6 feeders stations for grain and an open mesh one for fat balls. Mine hang from the lower branches of a blackthorn tree which gives them plenty of cover to queue up and wait while the bigger birds are on the feeders.

If you suffer from large birds using them then the ones with extra wires set away from the mesh would be better.
