Blue Seal Woodpecker Suet Cake | Suet Cakes for Wild Birds | Melt Resistant | Year-Round Feeding | Food for Wild Birds | Made in The USA | 12 oz Suet Cakes (12 Pack)

The birds absolutely love the food

Like most pet food, I think most bird food is sold for the human, not the birds. In reality, you just need to feed black oil sunflower in North America. The other seed are mostly filler and not needed. Thistle (nyjer) seed is also good for gold finches. Don't wast money on other seeds. The invasive will eat them all and they cost more.Now, suet. This is the mystery bird food. Is it all the same? Does adding berries or seeds “help” the birds or, attract more species. You would think it does. But, I have not seen this over the decades I have fed it. I think quality matters though. How do you tell that? I have no idea! Again, the birds will not say much.In the end, I just get the best price per unit and move on. At the end of the season, it is all gone so, I guess it works.This is, somehow, Blue Seal. Which generally is good. I think? For animal feed.Note too this has millet listed as third ingredient. I am not sure any of the suet eating species eat millet so, again, millet is FILLER. That alone makes me wonder if this is a good deal or not?BTW: if you have invasive (starlings, house sparrows) eating your suet up, the only effective suet feeder that eliminates starlings and, mostly prevents house sparrows, is the kind that is a little roof and the suet is under it, horizontally. The woodpeckers and wrens have no problem with hanging upside-down to feed from it. I used a double suit feeder in a cage for years but, last year, the sparrows went nuts. I think it was the pandemic. Fast food scraps in parking lots probably vanished. So, they swarmed into the residential areas behind the main drag and massacred the suet and the seed feeders. Even eating thistle. This fall I switched to the upside down suet feeder. House sparrows are awful and, along with starlings, are not native and not protected species in the USA. Don't feed them if you can!My sunflower feeder is the steel kind with the counter weight that you can adjust. Anymore than 2-3 sparrows, and it shuts close. Not eliminating it as a food source but limiting the swarms. This also gives the smaller and lighter natives a shot at the seed. It has worked for 25 years!

The price is perfect and my birds love it all

Less plastic packing than other brands. Many species of birds seem to enjoy this flavor other than the woodpecker/flicker types..

Seems great for birds but sticky on hands.

The birds do not like this product. The former brand I used would be consumed within 24 hours by a wide variety of birds, including bluebirds. Even the starlings stay away from your product…wish I hadn’t invested in so many packages of yours.

It went very fast!
