Desert Valley Safflower Seed, All Natural, Non-GMO Premium Wild Bird Food for Cardinals, Jays, Doves and More (10 Pounds)

I had been buying the typical store brand safflower seed for a couple of years. I decided to give this brand a try. Let me just say, the birds know the difference. They are so happy with the seed that they continue to invite other birds from near and far to dine. The amount of birds that come to my feeder is crazy and wonderful. I am now having to buy 2 bags a month, but I’m not complaining. I’m very happy with this seed! Even though the birds were dressed their best at my feeder, they refused to pose for a picture—so you’ll have to take my word for it!😉

I ordered 10 lbs of both kinds of bird seed and have 5 ten pounds bags sent to me. I only feed them for another month or so, will the seed still be good till spring? Birds do love and the quality is good. I am 81 so the bill will be pretty high for me

Good stuff

This safflower seed delivers on deterring determined squirrels, which is a huge plus. Squirrels completely ignore it, giving the birds full access. Those guys can be persistent. What I Loved: 1) Mostly mess free, didn't have too much of an issue with seeds around the feeder. 2) Squirrel resistance: A total win. No squirrels, no drama. 3) Great value: 10 pounds for the price is a solid deal. (these seeds are lighter so this is a big bag) What Could Be Better: 1) Limited bird variety: While it does attract some beautiful species, it hasn’t drawn as many different types of birds as my usual suet and seed mix. This might change with time, but it’s worth noting. Final Thoughts: If you’re looking for a seed that keeps squirrels at bay and appeals to a select group of birds, this is a good option. It’s not the most diverse in attracting visitors, but the value and squirrel-proof nature make it a worthwhile choice at least to try.

Squirrels and crackles hate this product so it's good to keep that type of bird and animal away from my feeders

The chick-a-dees, cardinals, wrens, finches, titmouse, and snowbirds love these.

Ever since I started using this bird seed, my yard has been full of birds! From cardinals to finches, they all seem to love it. The mix is clean, with no filler, and attracts a great variety of species. It’s fun watching them flock to the feeder every day. If you want a lively backyard full of happy birds, this seed is a winner!

It's a win/win product. I recommend this to everyone that has a squirrel problem. Squirrels don't like Safflower seed but birds love it. I recommend this product to anyone that is having problems with squirrels eating up their seed.
