Peckish Complete Energy Bites For Wild Birds - 1 Kg

They are formulated for a wide range of common garden birds. However, individual bird species have specific dietary needs, and it's always best to offer a varied diet.

These high-energy bites are particularly beneficial during autumn and winter when natural food sources are scarce. They can also be helpful in spring to support birds during nesting and rearing young.

Since the bag is not resealable, transfer any unused portion to an airtight container and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain freshness.

It's best to offer them during specific feeding times, especially morning and late afternoon, and remove any uneaten food after a few hours, particularly in warmer or wet weather, to prevent spoilage and deter pests.

High fat content provides concentrated energy, helping birds maintain body temperature and sustain activity levels, which is crucial during cold weather or periods of high exertion like migration or breeding.

The product description indicates it contains seeds, but no specific harmful seeds are mentioned. It's generally formulated with common bird-friendly seeds.

Start with a small amount and observe. The goal is to provide supplementary nutrition without creating over-reliance. Adjust quantity based on consumption and local bird population.

Ensure the feeding location is safe and accessible. Try scattering them on a clean bird table rather than using a feeder, or vice-versa. Birds may also be hesitant if a new food source is introduced; continue offering them for a few days.

This usually occurs in wet weather. Offer smaller quantities more frequently, and ensure uneaten food is cleared away daily. Store the unused portion in an airtight container in a dry location.

Use feeders designed to deter larger animals or squirrels. Avoid scattering food directly on the ground where it is easily accessible to pests. Clean up any spilled food promptly.

While designed for varied consumption, if experiencing issues with very small birds, try breaking the bites into smaller pieces before offering.
