Pennington Southwest Blend Wild Bird Seed for Outside Feeders, 40 lb., 1 Pack, Dry Bird Food

I have been ordering this bird seed for two or three years and the reason is that the birds love it and there aren't any weed seeds to worry about. No need to worry about weed seeds that may come with this mixture. I live in the southwest high desert and we have finches, quails, sparrows, robins, and several more.

This is a nice blend of several different types of seed that the wild birds here in Tucson, AZ really enjoy. There's no wasted seed or leftovers. I really appreciate the ratio of different seeds, as some brands really put mostly millet seed and very little others, but this brand has a nice blend that the birds love.

The only thing I didn't like was how few sunflowers were in it. It is mostly smaller seeds. However, the wild finches and other smaller birds love it. Blue Jays and Robins will eat what they can find like the sunflowers. For the price I still think it's a good deal. I use it to feed the birds and my squirrels.

Pennington Southwest Blend Wild Bird Seed having five different types of wild birds I am feeding loved this. It was gone in no time when the birds flew in for feeding. I have found the 40lbs at the price charged is worth to keep buying. Even more when the seed only last about two-three weeks. I had wondered about becoming winter with the freezing. The birds did not mind at all. What I read was in the mix and how the product helps the birds nutrition was a win for both them and me. I do not know really what birds I have eating the mix. I only know they eat this up and not being wasted.

great value for the money!! my turkeys and chickens absolutely love it!! I have a netting covering their pen and somehow several birds seem to be able to find a way in just to get to the bird seed and then can't find their way out so every evening I have to get my husband to help me get the birds out and sure enough when I go back out the next day I will have at least 10 more birds in my chicken pen!! I do have to spread it out because it's so good that my turkeys and chickens will fight each other over it!! good selection of seeds too!!

I got this mostly for the two guinea fowl in the flock. Because, as ground fowl, their diet is a little different from egg layer chickens, this forms a larger portion of their diet. It does contain peanuts, tho just spattered throughout, so if you have allergies to peanut dust, it's something to consider. I like the wild mix with black sunflower, and the guineas (Ted and Alice) are thrilled for the break from industry layer feed. TIP: If your guineas are vocalizing all day long, it may be due to odd number of fowl. They're monogamous and after they choose a mate, the one left behind single vocalizes to call a mate. It can go on all day long, as males and females answer each other back and forth that they're not available. When the odd man/girl is gone, or gets a mate, each couple goes quietly about their business, unless there's an intruder or flock upset to sound the alarm. We had three - 2 girls, 1 guy - in the chick mix and when the extra girl vanished from the property (hopefully to find her true love elsewhere ) - the mated guineas are a quiet and contented couple.

I figured bird seed is bird seed but I was wrong I'm in north east Pennsylvania and we are having the coldest winter 🥶 we've had in a very long time. I grad a couple of scoops of seed and throw some into the yard and some I put down in strips so it's spread out all over for the birds and the pretty much eat it all except for some kind of white seed . I bought this bag because they were out of my normal bag of Pennington seeds that I get .

Pennington recently started loading a lot of inedible twigs and chunks of plant stalks into their bags of feed. Obviously, diminishing the quality of this product keeps the cost the same but decreases the amount of edible seed. Pennington, if you're reading this, please restore the quality to your former high standards and increase the cost if you must.

It's a good product except it has WEEVILS ( little insects ) and I have to freeze the wild bird seeds for 72 or more hours to insure the WEEVILS ARE DEAD ! I don't want them getting into my mango and my banana trees ! If it didn't contain weevils I would rate it 5 stars !

its decent seed but the walmart brand is a better value for the same 20 lb bag . the photo on the product page shows zero corn yet the bag i received is full of large whole size pieces of corn. i posted 3 pics. the last one is a screenshot of their ad page
