I needed a lot of birdseed. I keep feeders at my home and a local cemetery filled. It has been so cold lately that I have been going through the seed quickly. I recently had a hip replacement and knew I would really struggle to haul 320 pounds of birdseed home (8 forty pound bags). Chewy had it on my porch within a few days of ordering. The quality of the seed is excellent and the price was very reasonable. Per usual, Chewy delivers in every way. I couldn't be more satisfied! Thank you.

I picked this specific brand because I was trying to find a black oil sunflower seed that was sourced and produced in the United States which this one is, when I dumped a couple handfuls on to the coop floor for the chickens I noticed them all pecking suddenly at wood chips and small sticks that will absolutely cause crop impaction. Wish there was less debris mixed in

The driver was very considerate & Helpful getting the package through my front door. The 40 lb black oil seed was busted inside the box which made for an interesting time parceling into buckets. The great price was totally worth it.

OMG- 40 pounds is a lot

We normally buy our birdseed at Lowes- but you can’t beat the price and free delivery. We’ll have enough to feed all the birds/squirrels in the neighborhood.

Chewy Made Life So Much Easier!

Just to be able to order a product that's always in stock online, without having to make the extra trip to the store only to find out that the next shipment won't be in until the following week, is not only such a load off my mind, but also a load of 40lbs x 3 bags off my car, and a few dollars back into my wallet. No other neighborhood store or online store can compare to Chewy's s&h fees along with their affordable prices. GREAT product at a cost I can't complain about!

product = 5 packaging = 2

I love Chewy and Pennington seeds but was surprised the seeds were shipped in a single bag. In the past, you've packaged large quantities in 2 or more bags. Examples:

I love Chewy and Pennington seeds but was surprised the seeds were shipped in a single bag. In the past, you've packaged large quantities in 2 or more bags. Examples: Tetra koi fish food and Fresh Pet cat litter. As a (very) senior citizen, it was a real struggle to get 40 lbs of sunflower seeds rebagged and off my front step.

I buy it to mix into the birdseed I buy form the local stores that have very little sunflower seeds in them, it helps to making the birdseed last longer and it was a great price when you live on a fixed old lady income.

Delivery

This is my second response! Not 10# was 6 40lb bags. The sunflower seed is good the packaging of a 40 lb bag in a huge individual box was terrible. I am 79 years

This is my second response! Not 10# was 6 40lb bags. The sunflower seed is good the packaging of a 40 lb bag in a huge individual box was terrible. I am 79 years old ,had to cut up all the boxes and bring them to our transfer station. Getting large bsgs out was horrible. I may not order again if everything is going to come in a box

I was impressed with the quality of the products but more importantly FedEx delivered it in the middle of a snowstorm. By the time he got to my house it was 6:30

I was impressed with the quality of the products but more importantly FedEx delivered it in the middle of a snowstorm. By the time he got to my house it was 6:30 and we had over 10 inches of snow and the roads were not in good shape at all.
