It's awesome, no shells to clean yo.

The birds in our area don't like all the fancy nuts and fruit in other zero waste feed and it falls to our downstairs neighbors yard which i hate. This feed gets the job done. There's a tiny bit of crumbs that end up on the ground but isn't noticable on dirt. Birds and neighbors are happy. Decent price too 🕊ï¸

I was a little worried about this as I'm moving from a nut-based diet to a seed-based diet for the local bird population to accommodate a friend's allergy. I have a window feeder in a Brooklyn apartment in the kitchen where I work all day. I knew the morning doves would love the change. The nuts are a little big for them so they always look like they're about to choke on one. This is far more comfortable for them, and therefore far more popular. I've gotten an impressive increase in the dove population since I switched. But they just hang around in the feeder not minding the local humans. They're New York birds. I wasn't sure the smaller, more skittish birds like the sparrows, titmice, cardinals, and blue jays (granted, blue jays aren't smaller, but they fit in the skittish population for this) would take to it. They liked the larger peanuts as a quick grab and go treat. Turns out they will grab and go just as readily with a sunflower heart, but they like these seeds so much the titmice and the sparrows will sometimes just hang out and eat right in the feeder. The bluejays are still on the fence about that. The occasional crow will still pop by for a quick treat as well. All in all, the birds seem perfectly happy with these. I've even gotten the attention of the occasional woodpecker, who seems to find them tasty.

I love that these are shell free and do not make a mess. The less clean up work, the better. I don't need to remove uneaten seeds at the end of the day, because there are none. I put in a plastic cup full first thing in the morning and the last few are picked clean just before sunset. I'll likely need to put out more in the summer, as the birds will eat until the sun goes down.

About the only thing I would like to see different is that the bag doesn't reseal. Everything else is perfect. Overall, I'd say these make the birds happy, which makes me happy.

Loved the idea of shell free but silly birds still take off the outer film. Great quality and a repeat it for me.

I don't know who liked these more the birds or the squirrels. I'd have to say it was the birds I added them with some other bird food rather than alone, but they still ate them up quickly. I highly recommend them for the birds as an added treat.
