20-Pound Bag Nutra-Saff Safflower Seed Wild Bird Food Seed

Birds love it. So far Squirrels are not eating it. That’s one of the reasons we bought it. Worth the extra expense. Cost more than normal birdseed. But if the squirrels don’t eat it you save money.

The product is no-mess safflower seeds for the birds. It was delivered quickly and at a cheaper price than available though Wild Birds Unlimited, whose closet store is an inconvenient distance from me. The birds love this seed, and it is the first to be eaten among the five varieties of bird food that I put out for them.

Small birds like chickadees and finches love this seed. I use another platform feeder to feed the other larger birds and critters. The problem is the cost doubled over the last month or so. At $98 for 20lbs it makes this seed unaffordable for most people. It's sold out everywhere else. Unsure why its sold out but I won't be buying this type of seed again unless the price goes down.

I've been using this bird seed for several years and it's absolutely the best. I do not to get those nasty black birds anymore that were aggressive, kept the small songbirds away and ate up all the food quickly. The product is always fresh and free of miscellaneous debris that you see in cheaper bags of seed. Cardinals, Finch woodpeckers, all the songbirds love this seed while for some reason larger nasty birds don't, which is great with me. I also have a Finch feeder and a suet feeder for the woodpeckers and they all navigate to this seed as well. I go through 20 pounds a month!

This sure is different from what I used to get. No birds whatsoever will touch it. Bought 20 pounds and after 3 weeks I have 20 pounds..used to go through 20 pounds in a month.

I purchase this when larger bags aren’t available. The product meets expectations.

Like traditional safflower seed, blackbirds don't seem to care for it, but all of my favorite song birds love it. There is less of a mess under the feeders with the thinner hulls. Great product!

Squirrels avoid this product. Unfortunately, it still tastes good to rats (see photo). We have had our feeders up for one month and do not see a diversity nor an abundance of birds. Chickadees and Titmice are regular visitors. We have seen one Junco and occasional House Finches. White and Golden-crowned sparrows will forage below the feeders. To date, the birds have only eaten about two inches of seeds from one tube and one inch from the other.Update: The rats have now gone. They were there for a few days but no more. I am also seeing more birds coming to the feeder (both abundance and diversity. There are a lot of peeled husks of the seeds below the feeders so not particularly clean. Changing my vote from three to four stars.
