C&S Peanut Delight No Melt Suet Dough Wild Bird Food, 11.75-oz tray

Great price on backyard birds' favorite...lots of tweeting going on today! They nip away and sing a song of joy. They line up along fence top and wait for a turn--what fun! Bought six this time, but even a dozen disappear too fast for us. Thank you, Chewy, for Peanut Delight.

The birds absolutely love this product, I have to buy it in bulk because they go through it so fast, it draws a variety of birds that are a pleasure to watch, I stay with the peanut because it seems to be their favorite and I like using it because it's mess free and easy to handle and place in the feeder.

This is a favorite of our birds in the PNW. Several woodpeckers, chickadees, nuthatches, grosbeaks. Basically all the birds when they are around.

It was a huge hit. All birds loved them. It brought the Cardinals in for sure. Morning doves too. Great buy.

Yes, the birds like it but about a quarter of it wound up on the ground because it crumbles so easily. I have gone through all three trays that I bought in 2-3 days whereas the previous brand I bought would last for a very long time because it didn't fall apart.

I go through tons of commercial suet and make my own as well. Making it is time consuming and a bit more expensive because I buy the nice salt free deluxe nuts, mealworms ect.. So I have to use mine as a treat and the store bought for the bulk of my feeders. I go through 3 a day and 6 in the colder months. So I've tried every brand and many price points. C&S makes a good dough that's well liked at a reasonable price. This is a product where you get what you pay for and I think the quality and price are fair. I use these often in the summer and they hold up well even when we've got 90+ degree & 90+ % humidity. They do tend to crumble when the birds peck at them, that's just the nature of the no I go through tons of commercial suet and make my own as well.

They do tend to crumble when the birds peck at them, that's just the nature of the no melt.. more cornmeal mixed with less fat so they still get the fat but it doesn't melt into a puddle before they can eat it. I have tons of ground feeders that enjoy the crumbs drifting down. I have two permanent stations I can't rotate feeders from so in addition to daily sweeping and blowing, I also turn the ground to keep it pest free and cleaner. If I miss a day I will see a light powder film forming on the ground from the finer particles. Again, that's just the consistency of any dough suet. All and all I reccomend it for the warmer months when the parents are working hard to feed the new broods and this gives them and extra bit of energy. It's also fun to see the new fledglings trying to balance on the cages! In the winter you need the higher fat but for summer these are a lifesaver! … more

We have various bird feeders in our yard (Southern California - Pomona Valley). This year we purchased/added a hopper feeder with two suet cages - one on each end. This is the 3rd different type of suet we've purchased and the birds love it (House finches, sparrows, bushtits and, Northern mocking bird). As others have pointed out this peanut suet is a bit crumbly but our hopper/suet cage is located over some grass so it is not a problem for us, but because it is crumbly I gave it a 4 out of 5 stars. Also I read on a few bird forums that suet can go rancid in high temperatures and it can get pretty hot here in the Pomona Valley between late April and early October (95ºF to 117ºF) so I cut We have various bird feeders in our yard (Southern California - Pomona Valley).

I would definitely recommend this product to others in Southern California. … more

Maybe its great in someplaces. I placed the cake in a flat/dish style feeder. The birds that come to my yard, woodpeckers, cardinals, blue jays, painted buntings, etc., are familiar with the dish feeder it was not a new structure. However, they didn't touch the Suet - not for anything. I poured the seed I usually feed them and put peanuts out - which they get everyday, and not a bird was interested in the Suet Whatsoever. I live in South Florida. Maybe it does better in other places. It didn't melt, I'll give it that. I got hard actually. Then I had to pitch it out. But it did not attract any new birds and the birds that come daily were so not interested. Oh well, it was worth a try. Oh, the Maybe its great in someplaces.

They smell so good, like fresh peanut butter, that you almost want to take a bite. Lol They sure make the birds start singing as soon as I replace it!

Found the suet I like to feed the birds with at “Chewy”. The price is fair for this product. Don’t like getting all the emails from “Chewy” every day.
