Description

The main ingredient in our bird fat balls is suet, which comes from the fat that surrounds the kidney of large animals. Our bird fat balls make an ideal addition to your Winter bird food selection; suet helps to provide vital calories to birds when the weather is colder and they need more energy. However, they are also an important addition to year-round bird food selections. Suet is particularly favoured by most species of tit but it is also enjoyed by most other birds, including the Great Spotted Woodpecker. Buy fat balls if you want to attract a range of wild bird species to your garden throughout the year. Our original suet balls are net free, so they are safer for birds.

    The fat balls are an excellent product and much-loved by the birds in my garden. However, quite a number of the fat balls were crumbled up at the bottom of the box when they were delivered, and in fact, left a trail of crumbs through the hall. There was no lining paper in the box which might have helped to keep them together. Otherwise, I am very pleased with them.

    Our resident flock of tree sparrows can't get enough of these. They have learned to cling on to the fat ball feeder - so have the blackbirds and starlings. All types of tit love them and Woody Woodpecker tries his luck occasionally, too. There's always a woodpigeon waiting underneath the feeder waiting for the bits that fall down. I love that we can source them in a large quantity packed in a cardboard box - I repack them into plastic tubs left over from other brands so that we are not buying into more single-use plastic. So they seem like a winner all round.

    The suet fat balls are very good and very popular with the sparrows and blue tits - BUT, cramming 150 into a 100 box meant that many were crushed into crumbs when they were delivered.

    It took the birds a while to take to these as they were used to the Super Suet Balls but once they started they were queuing up to get at them. The Starlings and Sparrows were really comical to watch they put on a great show in these mad times.

    The birds in my garden clearly approve as I'm topping up the feeders daily, if not twice per day. So 300 fat balls at a good price also gets my approval.

    Better value to buy the jumbo box (150) but don't know whether they had been shaken about in transit too much s there was a lot 'bittiness' in the box. The birds didn't have a problem with some of the balls being mis-shapen/broken and they have really loved them.

    I bought these as my last order of “super suet” fat balls were gobbled up incredibly quickly by hordes of juv starlings. It took a day or 2 before these were as popular but the birds have eaten them with relish. Am having to refill the feeders very quickly. I noticed the catalogue said birds may not eat these if they had previously been fed “super suet”- but they did! It just took a few days before they gave in- the others were easier to demolish!

    These suet balls are great and the birds love them; the price is good too! The only issue is that they are quite crumbly and if mishandled in transit you can easily end up with fewer balls than you expected and a 2-inch layer of suet crumbs in the bottom of the box! This isn’t really a Vine House Farm issue, but maybe the box could be better labelled for the shippers as “very fragile”.

    The fat ball have gone down well with our birds - again all birds seem to come to the feeders housing the fat ball. My only grouse would be that transportation from you via the carrier resulted in a lot of damage to the fat ball both chunks and small particles of the balls. BUT to get a large amount of fat ball in one go suits us very well!

    The bird activity in our garden is sheer madness and we have to top up the fat balls three times a day. They have encouraged various birds to nest nearby and we currently have about 20 sparrows, plus dunnocks, starlings and robins. Jackdaws and Jays sometimes try their luck but are easily dissuaded. Blackbirds and wood pigeons mop up what falls to the ground.

The potentially harmful plastic netting usually found on suet balls is not included on our bird fat balls. This eliminates the possibility of birds getting entangled in the netting.

Feed these original suet balls on a bird table or in a fat ball feeder.

Our fat balls are made from a combination of seeds, nuts, mealworms and suet. They are the perfect high energy food for birds during the colder months; their high fat content means that they help birds consume much-needed energy in a short space of time, which they need to keep warm when temperatures are low. However, our fat balls make an excellent addition to any garden throughout the year and will attract several species of wild bird no matter what season it is. 

Suet is especially favoured by most species of tit, but other species of bird including Great spotted woodpeckers will eat them.

Our bird fat balls are high quality, and are also supplied without netting -- which is not always the case with other cheap suet balls available to buy online. Some of the cheapest suet balls on the bird food market include a mesh net when they are delivered. If the netting is not removed before they are put out, this can lead to birds being injured and, in some cases, dying.
