Our premium Fat Balls are a mixture of fat, peanut flour, mixed seed or dried insects, that are high in energy and an extremely popular food source all year round with a wide variety of wild birds such as robins, finches, wrens, sparrows, dunnocks, starlings, siskins, nuthatches & tits.
The key ingredient in fat balls is suet, that is manufactured using pure refined animal or vegetable fat, which is then mixed with cereals and seeds to produce the fat balls birds love! We also now stock suet to go insect fat balls that contain dried mealworms and water flys that are sold in economical boxes of 50 balls, that birds find simply irresistible.
Suet is one of the most concentrated, easily metabolised high energy foods available for wild birds, that is relished by all bird species and keep them returning again and again for more.
Customers who regularly make fat balls available, will usually find demand for them increases during the winter months, when food is scarce and carries on until the early summer to satisfy the high energy requirements for nesting and raising young fledglings.
All our fat balls we sell online don't contain bulking materials such as sand and waste which is perfectly legal, found in some fat balls sold in pet shops or garden centres! Our bird fat balls will sell we even cope with frost, allowing you to place them out in the cold winter weather.
Fat balls will attract wild birds that require soft nutrition rather than seeds or peanuts, especially smaller bird species, as they provide them with an important source of nutritious high energy food throughout the year!
Wild bird fat balls are also important for mid-sized birds who need a high-protein food they can swallow quickly instead of spending time cracking and swallowing smaller seeds such as millet. Due to customer demand we now sell both small 95g and 500g fat balls in large economical bulk boxes.
Please note all our fats balls, including the new insect fat balls we sell on the website are now supplied without the mesh netting, for the safety and welfare of the wild birds that visit your garden, as birds will some times get claws stuck on the mesh nets, causing unnecessary stress or even damage to claws.
We always advise removing any mesh netting from fat balls, if purchased from another supplier and feeding them from a suitable fat ball feeder or bird table for the safety of your birds!
