Product Information

Creating luxury sensory experiences and teaching the importance of self-care of the mind, body, and soul. Please note that some postcode areas that are classed as Scottish Islands and Highlands may take 2-3 working days to arrive. A year round treat, this rich protein source is very useful in winter for survival and in springtime to help parent birds in carrying for their young. Please rest assured that, on the rare occasions where this proves to be the case, we will always do our very best to put things right.

These fabrics are hand packed by us and our trainees in cardboard boxes, compostable paper packaging and sealed with compostable labels. these thin skinned black sunflower seeds are packed with oil approx 40 and protein, making them an ideal source of energy and heat for birds, and offer a highly economical year round alternative to peanuts.

Versatile in how you decide to feed them, Black Sunflower Seeds can be offered from any type of feeder or simply scattered on the ground.

We have set this so you are able to take advantage of filling your parcel to the maximum weight of 28kg. Don't forget to also take a look at our Sunflower Hearts and Sunflower Heart Chips, which are ideal for smaller birds. Most birds eat only the core and they either peel their seeds at the feeding site or take the seed and put it elsewhere.Black Sunflower Seeds are high-energy, high in fibre and nourishing, with plenty of protein and essential vitamins and minerals. That's the thing about seeds, you don't know for certain what you're gonna get from them but they are F1 hybrids so should closely match the description. These black sunflower seeds are organic, which means that no artificial fertilizers or pesticides are used during cultivation. This will keep the seed dry and allow species such as Coat tit and Greenfinch to perch by the feeder ports and easily take the seeds.

Can't comment on growth rate or value for money etc as I haven't yet grown any of the seeds but if 50% percent of them grow to full size I suppose they're worth the money. Almost any bird that visits a bird feeder will readily eat black oil sunflower seeds, and studies have shown that, given a choice of seeds, more species of birds will choose black oil sunflower seeds over any other food that is offered. Black Sunflower Seeds contain around 40% oil meaning they are highly nutritional for birds and help promote healthy feathers and beaks.Still waiting for a couple to flower fully, but they are so easy to grow and loads of seeds in the packet. Can plant indoors from March to May which is the better option as the slugs won't get fat on your seedlings.

Appealing to a wide variety of garden birds, you will be sure to have flocks of hungry beaks arriving to feed on this nutritious seed. A cheaper alternative to peanuts, black sunflower seeds are versatile with plenty of ways for you to feed them to your feathered friends!
