What makes Wiggly Wigglers birdseed special? Decades of trusted relationships and attention to detail. Some ingredients are grown on our farm, others come from local farming partners, and the rest from a seed merchant with whom we’ve worked for over 30 years. Each order is bagged fresh: smaller sizes in plain paper bags, which are compostable, and 12.55kg sizes in reusable, recyclable woven polypropylene bags. This thoughtful approach ensures top quality, great value, and reduced waste.
- Packed with high-energy seeds that birds can easily digest.
- Plain paper bags simplify composting and reusing.
- Larger sizes in polyprop save you time and money.

Q: What is the best way to offer seed mixes to garden birds? A: Use bird feeders with appropriate perches and feeding ports. Hanging feeders or tray feeders are common choices. Ensure they are kept clean to prevent the spread of diseases.
Q: Are all seed mixes the same, or do they cater to specific bird species? A: Seed mixes can vary, and some are formulated for specific types of birds. Look for mixes that suit the birds you want to attract, or choose a diverse mix that appeals to a broad range of species.
Q: When is the best time to feed seed mixes to garden birds? A: Seed mixes can be offered year-round. Providing them during winter is particularly beneficial, as birds require extra energy to stay warm.
Q: How often should I refill the bird feeder with seed mixes? A: Check the feeder regularly and refill it when it's empty or close to being empty. This ensures a continuous and reliable food source for the birds.
Q: Are there any safety considerations when feeding seed mixes to birds? A: Keep the seed mix dry to prevent mold growth. Clean the feeder regularly to maintain a hygienic feeding environment and reduce the risk of disease transmission.
Q: Can I mix different types of bird food with seed mixes? A: Yes, mixing in other bird-friendly foods like suet, nuts, or mealworms can provide a more diverse and nutritious diet for garden birds.
Q: How do I store seed mixes for long-term use? A: Store seed mixes in a cool, dry place to prevent spoilage. Check for any signs of mould or pests before refilling feeders.
