Dawn Chorus Insect Fat Feast For Wild Birds (12 pack)

If you bought a product online describing itself as "strawberry jam" and when it arrived you discovered that it contained just 1% strawberries with the rest being water, sugar and turnip, you might feel you had been mis-sold . This product calls itself "Insect fat feast" - note the first (and most important) word of the name. . Only when the product arrived was I able to read the very small print telling me that it contained "1% insects". Examination by me - admittedly no expert, revealed no sign of any insects. The birds are largely ignoring this in favour of ones I bought in a high street chain. A real waste of £11.88 for blocks of fat that will have cost pennies to make without significant insects - and regrettably I feel conned.

As the suet cakes I get at Robert Dyas. Most of the birds turn their noses up at these , whereas they hoover up the Dyas stuff.

I have bought these before from a different supplier and each treat was individually wrapped with a descriptive label - the same as the image in the description.What I received from this supplier were blocks of fat with no individual wrapping and no individual labels. No idea what they are.UPDATEThe supplier said that these were genuine but was happy for me to return them if I wantedI have since contacted the manufacturer of Dawn Chorus products and they confirmed that the feasts are genuine.I have therefore changed my rating as they are loved by the birds.

I was a little concerned that one reviewer said that the birds in his garden wouldn't touch these. However, I risked it as they were such good value. The blue tits love them as do the jackdaws and startlings. Unfortunately, once the jackdaws and startlings are in, the blue tits don't get much chance. They are certainly worth the money and I have no regrets. Will buy more when these are finished. The only slight negative is that they are quite soft but handled with care and they work fine.

The birds cannot get enough of this, they fight each other to get a place on the feeder. It's a slightly softer texture than other block type food so much easier for them to eat.

Very good

I bought this on-line & found it to b very good & at a great price. It also arrived almost immediately & just in time before the bad weather set in. The wild birds must also enjoy it as 2 of these are eaten within 3 days.

The robins especially go for this and even the blackbirds have a go now and then and they usually prefer worms. Great value for money multipack. If you love your birds treat them to this.
