C&S Wild Bird Peanut Suet Nuggets Mega Box, 8 Pounds

I've been using these suet nuggets since at least 2023. They have always been fresh, with a strong peanut smell. They old together pretty well and seem to be a favorite of the local woodpeckers and blue jays where I live (Central Florida). Even some smaller birds will take one up in a tree and peck away at it. The nuggets do get soggy and break apart if they get rained on, but that's to be expected, so just don't put them out in an open/platform feeder when it's going to rain. They can clog up a screen-bottomed platform feeder or tray-type dispenser pretty easily if that happens.

I'd read that birds are desperate for fat in winter and bought this to supplement my other feeders with seed and nyjer. It turns out to be popular year-round including the hottest days of summer and it does not melt. The balls stay round and just soft enough for birds to peck through the feeder wire and the birds will grab the wire with their feet and eat this right side up, upside down, and sideways. They go through a full feeder every week, so having the mega box is necessary to keep up with them.

These suet balls are great! And better price buying here than in our local stores. All the wild birds love it, the chipmunks and squirrels love it. Easy to put in different kinds of feeders. Stores well. *** My only complaint is that it seems pretty soft and wastes a lot in the tubular feeders that are designed for this type of product … so when a bird jumps on there and starts pecking at it to get some a bunch just falls to the ground each time!! A lot falls! I wonder why this is or how you all can formulate it better because your advertising and boxes say “no waste” but that’s not true, there’s always a lot of waste.

I love this product. In hot weather, these nuggets attract Woodpeckers, Blue Jays, and even Robins! Very reasonably priced, and very easy to handle. No melting suet fat and no dirty hands! Easy to store and comes in a bag that closes and keeps moisture out during storage! Best of all, the birds love them and even the squirrels move in and provide great entertainment as they take their share!

Don't really got much else to say other than the birds outside love the suet nuggets, it's a staple in my backyard during the colder months as supplemental feed. Woodpeckers, nuthatches, chickadees, and also the resident Carolina wren pair have been all over it. Unfortunately it also attracts European Starlings, but fortunately I don't get too many of them where I am, usually.Also, the big box of suet nuggets is more convenient than having to get individual smaller bags more frequently. I'd say about 2 boxes of this is enough to last me 1 winter, on average.

My birds and squirrels will not eat this food. Don’t know why. I am disappointed.Update: The crows love it. Blue jays and squirrels are now eating the food. Happy about this turn about.

Our birds love them. These little balls are the favorite of several species on our little platform. Jays, Red Bellies, Warblers, Wrens, Cat Birds and an occasional Crow.

We used the product in our Squirrel feeder 5 feet up a large tree. It was a hit! I was expecting peanuts in a suet string. Instead there are individual peanuts coated with a light coat of suet.Squirrels love it, and any left overs are quickly cleaned up by a number of bird species.We discontinued use while one of our dogs is on an allergy trial, and the squirrels still check daily for refills !
