Black sunflower seeds are a popular seed with most wild birds. Blue Tits in particular love Black Sunflower Seeds and are a joy to watch as they remove the husks for the nutritious centre. They are a cheaper alternative to sunflower hearts.
Some birds will take the seed away to remove the husk, others will stay on the feeder for a feast. Either way black sunflower seeds provide an oil rich energy dense food source for a lot of wild bird species, including Tits, Finches and Sparrows.
Delivery:
Staying true to why we started Peckamix, we still make all our bird food to order in small batches and process it all by hand. This means your bird food is as fresh as possible and hasn't been sat in a warehouse for months. This does however mean we are unlikely to despatch your order same day as we need to make it for you! Please allow 3-5 days for your order to arrive.
Orders over £40 qualify for free delivery to most parts of the UK Mainland. Postcode exclusions apply, details can be found here.
For orders under £40 there is a £3.95 delivery charge.
Returns:
You have the right to return any unwanted goods up to a maximum period of 30 days after you receive the goods. If you cancel your order after it has been dispatched, you are responsible for returning the goods at your own expense.
