What is suet?
Suet is animal fat. It is the most concentrated source of energy you can offer wild birds. C&S Suet is made with only the highest quality processed beef kidney fat while special processes remove impurities that can cause low melting points and spoilage problems. C&S Treats are a poured product and will become soft and pliable at around 100 degrees (F). C&S Delights are refined even further and pressed to produce a “No Melt” suet that can be fed during the hottest temperatures. C&S Suet is reasonably priced and eliminates the mess of home production. Find more information on our quality line of suet products.
Why do birds eat suet?
Suet is 1 of the top 3 foods to feed wild birds. Birds have high metabolic rates, so it is not unusual for birds to consume 1/4 - 1/3 their body weight worth of food a day! Offering suet, mixed with the highest quality grains, nuts, fruits, and flavored pellets provides a high caloric energy source. C&S Suet is 1 of the first foods birds will offer their young. Check our wild bird feeding page for more information on how easy it is to get started.
When do birds eat?
Birds seek out food most actively early in the morning and again just before nightfall. This gives them the energy burst they need to make it through spring nesting, breeding and chilly winter nights. The wide variety and product quality make C&S Bird Suet an extremely desirable food source for our many feathered friends in all seasons.
How do I feed suet?
Wild Bird Suet is traditionally fed in vinyl - coated wire cages. They are inexpensive and durable. Wire dimensions vary depending on how starling or squirrel resistant you want your feeder to be. The cages, or baskets, hold from 1 - several C&S Suet Cakes or Bricks. The cages may be hung from branches, tree trunks, or hooks. There are also several designs available combining wire with wood or plastic. View our complete line of Suet Feeders and Baskets.
When do I feed suet?
ALL YEAR ROUND!!! In the past, people fed suet only in the fall and winter, due to poor quality and misconceptions of feeding wild birds. Winter is a good time for the beginner to start feeding because most trees are bare of foliage making the birds very visible. You are also more apt to see birds in flocks in the winter time. The growth and popularity of summer bird feeding was to be expected. You will have constant activity on your feeders as they flit back and forth for quick snacks during their busy day. C&S’s “No Melt” Suets make it easy to attract insect eating birds to your yard in warm weather. Year round feeding allows you to observe and enjoy wild birds when they are the most active and colorful.
What birds eat suet?
If you have never fed C&S Suet, you have missed some great neighbors. Common birds that eat suet are downy, hairy, red - bellied, and pileated woodpeckers. Chickadees, northern flickers, nuthatches, and starlings are also avid suet eaters. By adding C&S Suet to your wild bird’s menu, you will also attract wrens, warblers, thrushes, brown creepers, brown thrashers, and blue jays. You can also attract orioles, pine siskins, titmice, and the ever popular bluebird. No feeding station would be complete without C&S suet baskets!
What flavors do I feed?
C&S Suet flavors are available in treats and “No Melt” delights. Start with a suet that is most appealing to you. Ingredients vary from peanuts to papaya, hot pepper to almond, berry to cherry, and raisin to insect. Special blends are available including Oriole, Bluebird and Woodpecker.
What are Nuggets?
This is a new fat based product that uses a unique formulation and production process to produce. Nuggets™ have proven to be attractive to a larger variety of wild birds than even the finest selection of quality seeds.
How do I feed Nuggets?
The Bird Nuggets line may be fed with Nugget/Peanut/Sunflower feeders using 1/3? diameter wire or platform feeders. These feeders will only attract the clinging type of bird like Nuthatches and Chickadees.
What is a Snack™ Cake?
C&S Snack Cakes are produced with natural adhesive binders holding different mixes together in a cake form. These cakes vary in size from 6 ozs to 6.5 lbs.
Why would I use a Snack Cake?
Snack Cakes create less mess and waste than many conventional seed mixes. Snack™ Cakes may allow you to feed in places that you wouldn’t normally place seed feeders. You’ll also find that Snack™ Cake feeders attract a different type of bird than conventional bird feeders.
What about squirrels?
Squirrels are the bane of most birders. However, at C&S, we prefer to “FEED ‘EM, DON’T FIGHT ‘EM.” This is why we have developed a full line “Squirrelog” products and feeders. Not only do squirrels provide hours of entertainment, it is also to necessary to divert them away from bird suets and feeders because they can cause damage and steal needed food from wild birds. This is why we developed our line of Sweet Corn Squirrelogs—to have the best of both worlds.

The birds love it and I love it too. It's firm, not melty and doesn't get my hands all sticky like other suets. It attracts different birds that don't come to my regular bird feeders, like acorn woodpeckers.

I usually buy these bird blocks at a local retailer, but they stopped stocking them so I went on a search for them and found you had them and at a lower price! So I ordered some and I had them within 4 days from time of order. About 2 weeks later I placed another order for some more bird blocks and some cat food and was totally thrilled that the package arrived within the same amount of time. It is nice to know that when you place an order you don't have to wait weeks to get it and the service seems consistent. Everything was packed well and was delivered in good shape. Thank You!

Brings the non-seed eaters to my feeding “station”. A favorite of Downy Woodpeckers, Carolina Wrens, Cat Birds and more.

Just don't put in a grassy area, so much peanut butter gets knocked out and I have a huge mound of like fungus growing in my grass.

I usually buy the regular peanut suet and frankly mistakenly bought this no melt type. It has an odd smell, BUT it is great for small birds and they love it. It does break apart easily, so basically I chop it up and mix with sunflower seeds in the feeders. The blue jays can't get to it which is a plus. I keep the regular version for the suet cages for the woodpeckers, and among many other small birds I now have about 20 yellow finches practically knocking on the door :).

All of the birds in my backyard are coming to the birdfeeder there’s got to be 15 or 20 at a time they’re fighting for the suet

I have several bird feeders, and enjoy seeing a large variety of birds (and other wildlife) visiting them. Many types of birds absolutely LOVE this particular suet, even birds I normally don't see at the SUET feeder (like cardinals, red-wing blackbirds, etc). Highly recommended -- but be prepared to replace it often ;)

I can't keep enough of it in the suet cage. The first cake I added was gone in a day - the birds love it. Attracts a lot of what I think are starlings, as well as others. The only downfall is that you have to keep buying more, since they go through it so fast.

We had a Bad fire a few months ago in the Napa Valley area, so my little neighbor is feeding alot of birds. We bought the 20lbs feed from Chewy& they love the blend, I thought I would help her out I bought these Suet squares & they were a hit for especially the little birds, The Mealworm and Peanut are their favorites. I also bought the spice one but that they do not care for. Looking out her backyard bay window is like looking into an Avery it is just the best feeling in the world to see them happy!

The birds love these cakes. But the crows do too and thus devour them too fast to my liking. So, I will wait until winter to hang out more. When the birds will need it most. I will hide them inside the tree where the crows can't get at the cake so easily.
