Ingredient Information

Feeding Instructions

Adventure in Your Backyard

Feeding and watching wild birds offers an outdoor adventure and colorful sights without leaving home. Whether you’re new to the hobby or experienced, trust Kaytee Products to have the finest ingredients and a genuine love of birds that shows.

Feed Birds Year-Round

Kaytee Wild Bird Foods offer a year-round source of energy and nutrition for wild birds. Consistently filled feeders helps keep birds fed—especially during times when food is scarce—and your backyard exciting through all seasons.

Provide a Fresh Source of Water

In addition to providing food year-round, always provide a fresh source of water. Wild birds use water for drinking and to clean their feathers, so they may visit more often and stay longer. Running water works best, so birds can hear it.

For the Love of Birds

Every time you fill your feeder, you’re not just offering food—you’re creating a connection to the beauty of nature. As birds feed and are filled with energy, you can experience the joy of knowing you’re helping them thrive.

About Kaytee

Formulated by birding enthusiasts, Kaytee Wild Bird Food makes high quality feed for your birds. It provides a great source of energy and nutrition for your feathered friends while offering you a colorful adventure in your own backyard.

Why did Kaylee Sunflower chips go from @$11 to @$26 for the 8 lb. Bag .. glad I checked my auto ship and removed it.

About what percentage is the sunflower hearts and chips? What else in in there? Any milo?

Answer by Chewy • Apr 23, 2021
This premium bird seed consists entirely of sunflower hearts and sunflower chips.

Does this food work in the mesh finch feeders?

Answer by Chewy • May 21, 2025
This bird food is recommended to be used with hopper feeders, large tube feeders, and platform feeders.

One usually can't go wrong with Kaytee bird food, but these sunflower pieces were so finely ground that the whole bag was almost like a powdery meal. It actually clogged the drain holes in my feeders. I had to mix in another brand of larger (more expensive) sunflower hearts just to use it up and add some bulk. The birds did eat this, but the consistency made it a bit too wasteful and messy.

Great Value and Birdies Love It

We use this in our tray-style feeders and wow do we get a lot of birds! The gold finches in particular -- but also giant cardinals and well, everyone in the bird community. Not recommended for mesh style feeders because some of the pieces are small -- but the birds eat it up just the same when it's in any kind of a tray, or something that drops down into a tray. The autoship is a great value for keeping our active Michigan bird cafe in stock.

I got tired of the mess with black sunflower seeds in the shell , so I tried this and I really liked it. The cardinals, titmice and chickadees seem to like it the most out of all of the birds. Unfortunately, so do the greedy squirrels. They are my nemesis with ANY bird seed that I choose- except millet seeds.

I purchased this product with believing this was going to be sunflower hearts and Chips..to my surprise it’s ground so fine it’s a more of a meal! I would love to return this product but the shipping would be worth more than the product! Lost all confidence in Chewys “deals” buyer beware should be attached! Now I have 5 bags of useless ground sunflower meal!

We ordered dog food, wild bird food, and two bags of dog training snacks. We only received one bag. I chatted on the website and the refund given was about half the paid amount of said bag of dog training treats. It was Chewy’s fault and I ate the cost of their error.

I am still waiting for a return label for three cases of cat food. Emails never came through and I was promised a label would be mailed. Meanwhile I ordered sunflower hearts and they were delivered as requested. But where is my label? It's been two weeks.

The birds like this seed, so no issues there. My biggest issue is with the shipping--opened the box and the seed had spilled all over the place! Discovered a nice 3" slit half way down on the back side of the bag of seed, so obviously when someone opened the original box with the bags of seed in them, this bag got sliced open. This has happened before with a Chewy order, only that time it was thistle seed all over the box. What a mess to clean up. Please ask your warehouse workers to be careful about how they handle the bird seed bags!

I have been using this shelled sunflower seed for two winters. It doesn’t make a mess under the feeder because the birds eat it all - meaning there is no shell for them to break. And what seed falls to the ground doesn’t germinate. All of the birds sure love it I recommend it - it’s a win win

Great product, great price.

My chickens love sunflower seeds. Wasn't sure about getting them the peices but my bantams don't seem to mind! For the price will definitely buy again.
