KayteeWild Bird Woodpecker Seed Cake, 1.85 Pound, 6 Pack

Woodpeckers love it - as do nuthatches and squirrels; chickadees to lesser extent. Lots of fun to watch squirrels nibbling at it upside down or twisted around like a contortionist.Note - check your cage size - block is larger than some of the Walmart-type cages - of course fits the Kaytee large size cage just fine. Does NOT have any sort of hanger or string on the block itself - designed to go in a cage, which it really needs anyway due to its weight.Note - check alternatives on Amazon - up to 4:1 difference in price-per-block between single blocks and 4 or 5-packs.

I got the impression that these fit into the standard 5 x 5 suet cages, b ut they are HUGE - twice as thick and twice as long. That's nice because there is a lot of product - BUT I'm glad I have an axe. The pieces that fall apart when I play Paul Bunyan just go on the platform feeder, so no loss. Just be forwarned.

Bought both Birdola and Kaytee blocks. Both came in the same Amazon box. Kaytee was in good condition while Birdola has come to pieces on all corners. Prices are similar. Kaytee has better seed mix with more of the seeds a woodpecker prefers. Birdola was largely very small millet type seed.

Besides the different little birds and doves that feed off this, my darling mama and baby squirrel love this gourmet mixture of bird seeds. Now that’s it’s getting colder, the squirrel family does not come as often. I miss them. Both mother and daughter would feed off this seed cake for about 30 minutes at a time sometimes. Wonderful buy. Such a treat for both birds, squirrels and me!

I didn't read the description thoroughly, and thought this was a suet block. Was surprised to find it was a huge seed block! No harm, no foul. I carved up some portions and stuffed them inside the block feeder. The residual seed which occurred, I sprinkled on the ground. The chickadees and juncos inspected it first. Haven't seen much of anything else hanging off the feeder. Still, at least someone is eating it.

Our local Lowe's ran out of the brand of bird seed we usually get. Couldn't find it anywhere online. Found this brand on Amazon. Thought we'd try it.The birds and squirrels love it. Yes, the squirrels, too. A great value as well.Thanks so much for your product. Right on time. We love feeding our backyard friends.Matthew 7:7 is truth! Peace!

Description clearly states "Kaytee Wild Bird Seed & Mealworm Treat Cake, 6 Pack" but what you receive is what is pictures....the Woodpecker variant of the cake. I assume the birds will like it just as well, but I have been using the mealworm variant for months with great success and would have preferred to stay with that.

We are repeat customers and recently stocked up but due to the songbird eye disease our state has forbidden bird feeding and watering. If you are in states Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and New York check with your agriculture department or Audubon Society before feeding or watering birds. I wish I knew if these need to be put in the freezer for storage.
