This set, consisting of four 90-gram suet fat balls and a plastic holder, offers a ready-to-use solution for feeding garden and forest birds. The special nutritional value of these suet fat balls provides birds with essential extra energy and vital nutrients during colder months, helping them maintain body heat and significantly increasing their chances of survival during harsh freezing temperatures.
The included green plastic holder is designed to be reusable – once the initial food supply is depleted, it is easy to open and refill with new suet fat balls. This eliminates the need for repeatedly purchasing single-use solutions, making it both an environmentally friendly and cost-effective choice. The sturdy grid ensures that birds can comfortably access the food while preventing larger birds from carrying away the entire ball at once.
Usage and Cultivation Instructions:
-
Remove the surrounding packaging from the product, leaving the suet fat balls inside the green holder.
-
Hang the holder in a suitable location (on a tree branch, under an eave, or on a balcony) using the loop.
-
To ensure safety, choose a height of at least 1.5 to 2 meters from the ground to prevent domestic cats and other predators from reaching the birds.
-
Mandatory Rule: Supplementary winter feeding is vital for birds. Once you have started feeding, the holder must be kept continuously filled until spring. If the feeding station is empty, birds accustomed to it may perish due to energy deficiency.
Tips and recommendations:
-
-
Hang the feeder in a location sheltered from wind and direct precipitation. Although suet fat balls tolerate cold, protecting them from rain and wet snow will extend their shelf life.
-
Place the holder near bushes or trees with denser foliage. This provides small birds with a sense of security, as they can immediately take cover in case of danger (e.g., birds of prey).
-
Check the food supply at least once a week. During frosty weather, birds’ energy consumption significantly increases, and suet fat balls may run out faster than expected.
