Farmer Scott's Wild Bird Peanuts 12.55KG – High Energy Protein-Rich Bird Feed

Farmer Scott's Wild Bird Peanuts – 12.55kg

A 12.55kg sack of whole peanuts: the bulk size, aimed at gardens running two or three mesh feeders, or at anyone who would rather buy once a year than four times. Peanuts are the fat-and-protein staple for tits, nuthatches and woodpeckers, and demand for them barely falls away outside winter.

Whole nuts belong in a wire mesh feeder, where birds peck fragments off through the wire rather than making off with a nut whole. Stored properly a sack this size keeps well; stored damp, peanuts are one of the few bird foods that can turn genuinely harmful.

Performance & Benefits

• 12.55kg of whole peanuts — high in oil and protein.
• Fed through wire mesh, so birds take small pieces rather than whole nuts.
• Draws tits, nuthatches and woodpeckers reliably, including through the summer.
• Bulk sack: fewer orders, and a lower cost per kilo than the small bag.
• Keeps a multi-feeder station stocked without constant reordering.

Suitable For

• Blue tits, great tits, coal tits and long-tailed tits.
• Nuthatches, greater spotted woodpeckers, greenfinches and house sparrows.
• Wire mesh peanut feeders, and mesh-sided feeding station arms.
• Gardens feeding nuts year-round across several feeders.
• More than most gardens will get through before the nuts begin to age — Farmer Scott's Wild Bird Peanuts 2kg is the size for a single feeder.

Feeding

• Fill a wire mesh peanut feeder. Do not use a seed feeder with open ports.
• Empty and check the feeder before refilling rather than topping up over old nuts.
• Store the sack sealed, off the floor and somewhere dry and cool.
• Keep fresh water available for drinking and bathing near the feeder.
• Made for feeding wild birds only. Not for human consumption.

Composition & Analysis

• Composition: whole peanuts.
• Farmer Scott's publish no typical analysis for their peanuts — no protein, oil, fibre or ash figures appear on their website — so none is stated here.
• Farmer Scott's publish no aflatoxin test statement either, so no such claim is made here. Check the declaration printed on the sack.
• 12.55kg sack. Barcode 5026132035746.

Care & Caution

• Feed whole peanuts from a wire mesh feeder only. Loose whole nuts can choke a nestling, and adults will carry them straight to the nest in spring and summer.
• Peanuts can develop aflatoxin if they are stored damp. Keep the bag dry and sealed, and throw out any nuts that smell musty or look discoloured.
• Contains nuts. Made for feeding wild birds only, not for human consumption.
