Suet Cake Basket
This Suet Cake Basket is designed for people who love feeding suet cakes and want to attract a wide range of clinging birds. Made from tough, high-quality metal, the chew-proof steel cage helps prevent unwanted damage from squirrels. Holds two standard square suet blocks, suet feasts or suet cakes.
It provides a generous, 360 degree feeding area that birds can access from every angle. We find that the long-tailed tits in our garden love this feeder! But it is also loved by blue tits, coal tits and great tits ( in fact - all the tits!) but we also have blackcaps, nuthatches and the odd woodpecker use it too ( although not all at the same time !)
A key feature is the pitched roof that sits over the suet, helping to shield the blocks from rain Keeping suet cakes drier not only makes them more appealing, but also reduces waste and helps food last longer, particularly important during winter and busy breeding seasons where there is lots of competition at feeders.
The carefully shaped, open-sided cage also supports better feeder hygiene. By encouraging birds to feed from the sides rather than sit above the food, it helps prevent droppings from landing on the suet blocks. This keeps food cleaner, reduces the risk of disease transmission, and creates a healthier feeding environment when multiple birds are visiting.
