Sunflower Hearts

Sunflower hearts are very good for birds, they’re nutiricous and a firm favourite of garden birds in the UK. They’re easy for birds to eat and because the seeds have had their husks removed, the birds will eat the whole seed leaving very little mess around your feeders.

When To Feed

Sunflower Hearts can be fed to birds all year round. During spring when younger birds are feeding, you may wish to switch to Sunflower Chips which are a bit easier for the fledglings to eat. During the colder winter months, you could supplement with some Suet Pellets to help provide birds with the energy they need. Another great alternative is our ready mixed Chips, Granules and Pellets mix.

Suitable Feeders

Sunflower Hearts can be fed from a range of feeders. The most suitable feeders are Sunflower Heart Feeders, but Seed Feeders are also a great choice. You could also feed them from Bird Table or Ground Feeders. Don’t forget you may need a Bird Feeding Station to hang your feeders from.
