USUAL EXCELLENT SERVICE

Unfortunately I didn't receive my order of sunflower heart chips, I got something else.! I have bought them before and the goldfinches and starlings love them.

Ideal for serving with suet pellets and chopped peanuts on the bird table. They seem to appeal to all visitors, they're clean to handle and leave no mess. Good value.
25/11/2023Mr robert weston
Quality seed and prompt service and delivery.
24/11/2023Mr colin Cheesman
I have been using these for years as the birds love them. They rarely sprout if they fall off the tray beneath and flow well through the feeder. Thoroughly recommended.
20/11/2023Mrs jane Radley
I have been buying from Vinehouse Farm for years and I have never had anything except excellent products and excellent service - the sunflower heart chips are no exception. Exactly what it says on the tin and very clean, no dust or debris. Birds love it.
14/11/2023Mr ken Ward
Not a lot of wastage. Incessant rain may make those at the bottom of the feeder go horrible, but generally speaking it's all good.
10/11/2023Christine Thomas
Always a very popular food.
30/10/2023Elaine Richardson
A good quality and good value for money product which a wide range of birds in my garden cannot get enough of! I love that they come in a paper sack too.
25/10/2023Helen Prabucki
Vine House Farm always sells good quality wild bird food. A bit more expensive than some but you get what you say for. Sun flower heart chips are easier for smaller birds to cope with including soft bill birds. They all always get eaten, there's never a bit left.

Excellent value....delivered on time too.
26/09/2023Felicity Bryant
Both the birds and I love these as there is absolutely no mess or unwanted plant growth below. They dissappear like "snow off a dyke" as the saying goes!

Attracts goldfinch, bullfinch, blue tits, great tits, greenfinches as well as sparrows and robins and is small enough for young birds! Very good quality product that I have used for a few years now!

Really good quality product. The birds go mad for them. Also fantastic next day delivery. I keep coming back so that says everything.

The birds love these sunflower heart chips. Perfect delivery.

The birds love the chipped sunflower hearts - goldfinches, greenfinches, bull finches, chaffinches, great tits, blue tits, coal tits and anything larger if I let them.
28/08/2023Stuart Wilson
All types of birds love them and I can’t find them in the garden centres, so I always go to Vine House Farm and they arrive next day delivery !

As an all round food for the small birds. Works for me. It will stick a bit in very wet weather. But in general, I have not found a better food.

Since buying your Sunflower Heart Chips many years ago, I have had a wide variety of birds at each of my homes. Since moving three years ago, not so many but I think that there is a young blackcap coming now. I am delighted. A big bag of entertainment for the price of a show ticket.
26/07/2023Ms Jane buckley
It's not what I think of them, it's the birds' reaction. I think every sparrow in the area and lots of other birds visit my feeder and are at the moment (July) emptying it every day. They queue up and squabble very noisily over whose turn it is. Any chip that falls is wolfed down by blackbirds, so there is no waste. I'm not going to mention the squirrels except to say they think the chips are delicious too.

Great product and service, as always.

The sparrows, wood pigeons and other birds along the Union Canal here in Edinburgh absolutely love those Sunflower Heart Chips - thank you!

Very popular with small birds. Goldfinches in particular prefer the chips to whole hearts which they have to break.
20/06/2023Peter Lenders
Great product, super fast delivery
19/06/2023Mrs caryl Chapman
These chips are very good because they are loved by the smaller birds.
02/06/2023Mrs philippa Arnott
Excellent product, popular with House sparrows, finches and tits. Very quick delivery.
30/05/2023John Marcer
Birds love them,top quality and delivery as usual. Put out chipped sunflower hearts and also suet balls and get a wide variety of garden visitors.
18/05/2023Clive Coley
I changed from whole sunflower seeds as they were being dropped and germinated so tried heart chips and was delighted with the results
13/05/2023Guest
Very popular with my garden birds. I have to refill the feeders every second day. Because the sunflower hearts are in chips, there appears to be less sunflower waste on the ground.

Good product delivered promptly as always. Don't seem to be able to indicate a rating for sunflower heart chips requested above.
05/05/2023Clare Huxley
All my birds love the Sunflower Heart Chips (much better than whole sunflower seeds) - goldfinches, bullfinches, greenfinches, chaffinches, coal tits, blue tits, great tits, robins and blackcaps
29/04/2023Guest
These are just what I wanted, quite finely chopped and destined to feed a family of tiny wood mice. The very small kibble might be a bit too fine for bird feeders, though a nyger feeder would work. Because I'm not feeding birds, and the chips go into a little dish, I'm very happy. They all vanish overnight.
26/04/2023Mr chris Gannaway
As always a very quick delivery of my order. I buy sunflower Heart chips as they are smaller bites for the bird which leads to minimal wastage. Note must be feed in large dia feeders and will stick if dampness gets in. I just shake the feeders everyday.
14/04/2023Christine Watson
Thank you, just what I asked for!

Good quality and popular with all kinds of birds
25/03/2023Dr Ian woods
Good quality and good delivery as always from Vinehouse. Only point I would make - I usually get complete Sunflower hearts. These chips are probably good for smallest birds and chick food - but they are very easy for starlings to spray out of the feeder and all over the ground !! Im back on full sized hearts with added peanut granules - almost all of which seems to stay in the feeder until eaten!!!!
11/03/2023Mrs judith Wilkinson
My birds love these and consume them at a very fast pace. I used to buy the sunflower hearts but birds leave these now in favour of chips. There is never any waste
10/03/2023Peter Lenders
Fantastic product. Very quick delivery.

Top quality chips !

Unlike sunflower seeds, sunflower heart chips for birds do not come with the black husk attached, and the heart of the seed is broken down into smaller, more manageable chunks. This means that even the smallest garden birds can enjoy the benefits that come with consuming sunflower seeds.
Sunflower heart chips are an ideal type of bird food for soft-bill birds, like Blackbirds and Robins. These kinds of birds are unable to break down whole seeds because of the shape of their beaks; they are not evolved to break off the tough outer layer of the seed (called the husk). If you only put whole sunflower seeds that are still in their husks in your garden, soft-bill birds will not attempt to eat them.
Both sunflower hearts and sunflower heart chips have had the seed’s husk pre-removed. This means these kinds of birds are able to consume them, making them an excellent choice if you want to attract more wild bird species into your garden.
