Product Reviews
Mr james Hall
The Goldfinches love these. But we also have a Bullfinch pair and a Greater Spotted Woodpecker that like them. Only quibble is, being small bits with with no coat, in damp weather they tend to bung up the bird feeder meaning even more cleaning.

For my birds the chips are their crack cocaine of foods.

I like that they are grown in England, and you can read about the farm, the conservation and care for wildlife that Nocholas Watts provides! I The bags are environmentally friendly too! They also have a best before date too - I’ve often wondered how old others I’ve bought (from others) are - and where they originated from. Buy British!

I changed to Sunflower Chips because i was getting many dropped Sunflower Hearts on the floor from small birds not being able eat whole Sunflower Heart. Now with the Chips i have much less waste on the ground. Although i do find this very pricey i wish it was a bit cheaper .

Extremely popular when in my bird feeders.

Feeders filled with your sunflower heart chips, attract sparrows, blue tits, blackcaps and robin.
11/12/2023Mrs caryl Chapman
These sunflower chips are very popular with my garden birds. I find they can stay on the feeder to keep eating whereas with the larger complete sunflower seeds they tend to fly off somewhere into a hedge or tree with one at a time to eat it bit by bit. I expect in very cold weather this saves energy which must be an advantage for them.

Very good quality and my birds love them, plus so does the Hedgehog.

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.
02/12/2023Roma Hall
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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.
