Birds love our fat balls because...

They're packed with calories to give your garden birds a much-needed energy boost during the nesting season.
They're high in essential fats. In fact, they contain 50% more fat than traditional fat balls for birds!
They help birds to stay warm during the cold winter months, when energy-rich foods are scarce.
They're softer than other fat balls thanks to their high fat content. This makes them nice and easy to peck, even when it's chilly outside!

Soft-billed garden birds (and fledglings in particular) will find these suet fat balls very easy to consume. The balls won't crumble and disintegrate in extremely cold weather conditions, but they may soften during warm summer months.

Don't waste your money on the garden centre and supermarket brand suet balls. These are in a completely different league due to the very high suet content. You'll notice the difference as soon as you purchase these as the other suet balls are very dry and hard, and don't attract birds the way these do. Believe me, once 'word' gets out that these suet balls are available, you'll attract a greater variety of birds.

Certainly the best fat balls on the market. My birds love them and shun next doors that are purchased from a supermarket. I once had to buy fat balls from another source because Street End had none available at the time. Suffice to say I threw them away because they were obviously inferior and of no nutritional value to the birds. Street End fat balls are top quality and fairly priced. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Fat balls will eventually go bad if left outside for too long (especially in warm weather). Once a week, you should throw away any uneaten suet balls and replace them with fresh ones.
