What's the shelf-life for this product when kept dry at room temperature?

Answer by ChewyJan 10, 2023
The manufacturer has stated the following about this product – “We stamp a Best By Date on all our products for best quality and freshness and for rotating stock, but our products are good for much longer than that. We stand behind our products for a year and the Best if Sold By Date stamped on our products is three years from the manufactured date. Unless you see any signs of the product not looking or smelling good, it will be fine to feed to your wild birds after the Best if Sold By Date."

Do I have to refrigerate this before opening? I had purchased a pack of this 3 weeks ago and just read where refrigeration is recommended. I did not do that when received.

Answer by ChewyDec 06, 2021
This food should be refrigerated for easy removal.

Good year round. My woodpeckers especially like this suet, but is not just limited to attracting woodpeckers. Many birds visit this suet. It does not melt in the summer and hold up well in the winter.

The birds love it

Weird reviewing something I don't eat. :) But the birds love it. Seems to have more 'stuff' and less 'fat', which has the birds going to it more than other quets

The Woodpecker Treat suet is the worst I've ever used. The seed is only on one side. The suet oozes and melts in just 80 degree weather. It has a strange, soft consistency, unlike anything I've used in the past. The main issue is that the birds hate it. I usually can't refill feeders fast enough, especially in autumn, but my first two packs are still hanging up, barely touched, a month later. This birds try to pick the seed out and leave the suet.

Birds love this stuff!

My neighbor has always put suet out for the birds - we get so many wild birds especially in the Summer - so our bird population this winter is living large.

The smaller birds around my Colorado home love it but the bigger ones aren't as impressed. I don't mind this in the winter when they all need a snack but prefer a different cake for the big birds during the summer. Additionally, these cakes melt at the thought of heat so, not a good choice for the hotter months.

First day the squirrels made off with the basket and suet. We found it and hopefully made this squirrel crime impossible again. Adorable

Birds go wild for this stuff

Ravens found my feeding spot, and they basically attacked the suet, dislodging the feeder and eventually ‘someone’ flew off with the whole thing. I had to take it down, and now can only put it out for the woodpeckers if I can watch the site from indoors, because I have to bring it inside when I’m not watching. I don’t need an unkindness of ravens hanging out in my backyard. : )
