Nyjer® is finches’ favorite food.
Nyjer’s high oil content makes it an excellent energy source for active birds, and it’s best used in our specially designed finch feeders. It is important to keep the food fresh because finches can be picky eaters. Nyjer has a thin shell and is vulnerable to spoilage while in the tube. Once seed starts to dry out and become stale, finches will look for fresher forage. Replace Nyjer in feeders every three to four weeks if it is not being actively eaten. Store your Nyjer in an airtight container for a longer shelf life, and buy in quantities that will be used up in a few weeks.
Finch Blend includes Nyjer® (thistle) and fine sunflower chips. It’s a favorite of goldfinches, house finches, purple finches and pine siskins.

No shells. No mess. No millet. 100% edible. Our No-Mess No Millet Blend is great near flower beds, patios and decks.
Our unique No-Mess Blend No Millet Blend bird seed features seeds that have had their shells removed so only the meat of the seed is left. No hulls on the seeds makes for tidier feeding, since there’s no debris on the ground to clean up. Pound for pound, our No-Mess No Millet Blend bird seed offers the best value because you do not pay for uneaten seed waste. The birds eat everything.
Our No-Mess Blend’s mix of sunflower chips, tree nuts and shelled peanuts appeals to birds that eat at the feeder or on the ground.

Placing an EZ-Attach Advanced Pole System® (APS) Decorative Branch Perch on your birdfeeding station is the perfect way to give your birds a little R and R between feedings.
Some birds will take turns eating at a bird feeder. Typically, they will wait out of view in a nearby tree or bush. Our decorative perch allows birds to remain in sight while they wait to eat. It can also be used to hang additional lightweight feeders.
