Wagner's Four Season 100% Black Oil Sunflower Seed Wild Bird Food

unfortunately I ordered despite other reviews in hopes there wouldn’t be as much "dirty" in the mix, i.e. sticks and dust. There’s quite a bit of sticks and bark in the bag and where yesterday our birds who have been hoovering Wagner’s Deluxe seed mix, we offered up this new Black Oil Sunflower seed food and they assessed the seed, hop around it and then have all flown off and don’t seem to like it at all. We had 20 to 30 birds at a time gorging on the other blend. Now, not a bird in sight, not even a squirrel. I know something must be amiss with these if not even the squirrels will bite. Bummed.

I've been feeding black oil sunflower seeds to our backyard birds for years. Normally I buy from our local store but they were out of stock and due to COVID I thought I'd buy online from Chewy. I was shocked to see so much wood pulp when I opened the bag. I'm very disappointed and will not buy Wagner's again. Also, now I'll have to clean out all the wood bits from the bottom of the bird feeder as the birds will not eat that filler. Shame on Wagner for adding weight to the package for profit.

I raised a grey squirrel from the day he was born and he’s been released almost a year. So I have to feed him and with him comes all his buddies. Let’s be honest feeding just peanuts is very expensive. They love these sunflower seeds. Some of my squirrels prefer them over peanuts. Plus the finches, red birds and just about every other birds love them. So my yard is full of wildlife

Thank goodness because I also had ordered a different brand of mixed bird seed then what they’re used to eating and they’re not a fan!! However, I mixed about 3-4 cups of this sunflower seed with about 5 pounds of the mixed seed that they’re not a fan of and they are eating it more now. This is really good sunflower seed! Not hardly any twigs or such that you sometimes get with sunflower seed.

I’ve bought this seed before because the birds ( and squirrels) love it. This time however there were quite a lot of twigs and bark mixed in. That is why I gave it 3 stars instead of 5. I will buy it again because the birds like it but I don’t appreciate having to pick the twigs out. If I don’t, it clogs up the feeder. I hope Wagner fixes this problem.

I felt a little nervous because this is the first time I bought this product and was afraid my yard birds would not like it as much. Turns out they love it!! I have: Black Gray Wablers; Chickadees; Robins; Cardinals; Song Sparrows; House and Purple finches; of course the common dove, and others I have yet not identified. They absolutely love it!

I live in NE Pennsylvania and all the birds seem to love this seed. I also put out a thistle sock and a suet cake for them. I get a nice variety of visitors to my feeders year round. And, with prices skyrocketing, it's good to know we can still get sunflower seed at a very reasonable price AND have it delivered right to my door. Win-win! Thanks Chewy.

This is hands down the most beloved birdseed that I've used. I usually see the birds around all day after feeding them, but after putting this out for the first time I only saw them for about an hour or so. After checking to see if any was consumed, thinking they might not like it, I discovered that it was ALL gone. They eat this immediately!!! I have to put this out twice daily for them, and now they all have been "trained" for their feedings (seen usually waiting in the trees patiently as well as sitting in the empty feeder). The birds that seem to enjoy this by me are the Doves and Finches, haven't seen any crows or others sample it yet. Will definitely continue to buy this.

I switched to this seed from another blend hoping this would keep my local cardinals and jays happy while I save a few dollars. While I did end up saving some money the traffic at my feeder has decreased dramatically. Next time I’ll stay with the more expensive variety.

The birds and squirrels love this seed. That being said, there are so many pieces of twigs throughout the seed and it’s really annoying because it clogs up the bird feeder slots. I probably will not buy this brand again.
