Pros

  • β€’Economical for those whose birds may prefer this blend, offering some savings if the local wildlife consumes it.
  • β€’Certain areas, like Texas, see a high favorability among local bird populations.
  • β€’Helps attract cardinals and other bird species, despite requiring fillers.
  • β€’Large 40lb size is appreciated by those who require a bigger quantity of seed.
  • β€’Can be mixed with higher sunflower seed content for better results.

Cons

  • β€’High concentration of unwanted Milo and reduced amounts of more desirable seeds like Millet and Sunflower.
  • β€’Birds in many regions do not favor the current blend, with many scratching the seeds to waste.
  • β€’Complaints of changes in the formula leading to dissatisfaction and loss of previous bird visitors like Cardinals and Blue Jays.
  • β€’Issues with seeds going moldy if kept beyond months, despite being dry initially.
  • β€’Significant price increase creates concerns about the product's value for money.
  • β€’Customers have requested a return to the original blend due to decreased effectiveness.

Bottom Line

If your local bird population happens to like this blend, it can be a cost-effective option. However, widespread dissatisfaction due to changes in the mix, with many undesirable ingredients like Milo, calls into question its appeal to a broader variety of birds. For those looking to attract specific species like Blue Jays or Cardinals, supplementing with additional Sunflower seeds might be necessary.
