High-Energy, British-Sourced Bird Food — Mixed Fresh on Our Herefordshire Farm

For days when your birds need a proper boost.
Farmer Phil’s Deluxe British Mix is a wheat-free, high-energy blend packed with oils and proteins — ideal for moulting, nesting, and cold snaps.

Wherever possible, we source ingredients from British farms, including our own crops here in Herefordshire and trusted growers across the UK. When weather or harvests make that tricky, we’ll supplement carefully to keep the quality high and the feed consistent.
It’s bird food done right — no filler, no nonsense, and no compromise.

Key Benefits

  • No filler – every seed earns its place in the mix
  • Farm-fresh – blended and bagged at Lower Blakemere Farm, Herefordshire
  • Responsible packaging – recyclable, returnable, and minimal waste
  • Fully secure checkout
  • Supporting British Farming
  • Rated Platinum on Judge.me

Who You’ll Attract
A true all-rounder, this mix will bring in finches, tits, wrens, sparrows, siskins, and other songbirds looking for rich, oily seeds.
Because it’s wheat-free, it’s less appealing to larger birds like pigeons — so your songbirds get a fair share.

How to Feed

  • Use in feeders, tables, or ground trays.
  • Feed little and often to keep things fresh.
  • Offer twice daily in cold weather (early and late).
  • Clean feeders weekly and keep them dry.

Each Ingredient Plays Its Part

  • Black Sunflower Seeds: High-energy, oil-rich, and irresistible.
  • White Millet: Perfect for small beaks and flock feeders.
  • Black Rape Seed: Packed with oil and protein for condition.
  • Linseed: Keeps feathers glossy and hearts healthy.
  • Groats: De-hulled oats for energy and easy digestion.
  • Canary Seed: Protein boost for small garden birds.
  • Oyster Grit: Supports digestion and strong eggshells.

Wiggly Tip
Pop one feeder in the open and another near a hedge — shy birds prefer a bit of cover, and everyone gets a turn.

Our Regenerative Farm
Every bag is mixed and packed at Lower Blakemere Farm in Herefordshire — where we’re working to build soil life, plant hedges, and farm for wildlife as well as crops.
We always aim to source from British growers first, including Phil’s farming friends across the country. When supply or weather says no, we stick to the same high standards — because freshness and nutrition come first.

Sustainability & Packaging

  • Small bags – compostable paper, simple and recyclable.
  • 12.55 kg sacksreusable woven polypropylene, returnable for re-use.
  • No extra packaging – large sacks ship as they are, saving waste and miles.

Wiggly Tip
Reuse your woven sacks for compost, kindling, or storage — Phil swears they make the best potato bags too.

Nature Benefits
Birds need consistent, nutritious food year-round — especially when weather’s unpredictable. This mix keeps your garden alive with activity and helps farmland species thrive through lean months.

Good for You Too
Watching your birds each morning is good for the soul. A handful of seed and five quiet minutes — it’s cheaper than therapy and far more entertaining.

Wiggly Tip
Top up feeders in the morning — birds burn energy fast after cold nights, and you’ll have your own dawn chorus on tap.

Storage & Freshness
Store in a cool, dry, sealed container.
Avoid warm, damp spots — they invite mites and mould.
Buy or subscribe little and often for peak freshness.

Wiggly Tip: If seed ever smells musty, compost it — your worms won’t mind, and your birds deserve better.

Goes Well With

  • Live mealworms for extra protein
  • A Wiggly Seed Feeder with small mesh to keep it flowing freely
  • British Suet Balls to boost energy on frosty mornings

Quick FAQs
Will it sprout under my feeder?
Unlikely — it’s mostly seed hearts and de-hulled grains.
Is it safe for fledglings?
Yes — small, soft, and easy to digest.
How long will it keep?
Stored cool and dry: several months. Fresh is best.

What our customers say

Brilliant live worms and great service! I ordered a batch of live composting worms for my new wormery, and they arrived in perfect condition — lively, healthy, and ready to get to work straight away. The packaging was eco-friendly, and the team even included a little guide on how to settle them in. My kitchen scraps are disappearing fast, and I’ve already started harvesting my first bit of worm compost. Couldn’t be happier!

Fantastic bokashi composting advice As a complete beginner to bokashi composting, I really appreciated how helpful the team were. They answered all my questions quickly and gave me simple, clear instructions to get started. The bokashi bran is top quality and smells fresh and pleasant. After just a few weeks, I’ve turned my kitchen waste into brilliant compost-ready material with no odour or mess. Highly recommended!
James T.
Top-notch British birdseed mix The British birdseed from Wigglys is superb. It attracts a lovely variety of garden birds — robins, finches, and even a pair of goldfinches have started visiting regularly. You can tell it’s a quality mix with no fillers or dust. Delivery was quick, and everything was packaged sustainably. It’s become my go-to source for bird feed!
