Birds crave high-fat suet year round

Suet can be vegetable or animal fat—either way, fats provide more calories (energy!) than carbohydrates and proteins of equal weight. Birds need extra energy to prepare for migration, to keep warm in winter, and to maintain health during the hectic nesting season. And suet is a perfect food for nestlings. Baby birds can’t digest seeds, but suet is highly digestible and parent birds will feed it to their young. Here you’ll find no-melt suet for hot regions, convenient suet pellets, suet to fit specialty ball and plug feeders, and lots of flavors to satisfy all your insect, fruit, berry and nut lovers!
