Best Bird Food of 2025

“I really enjoy the nut and fruit combination. The birds love it, and it's great for different species with various seeds and berries. My only issue is the high price for a small bag; I won't purchase it again.”

“I took my time choosing bird feed and ended up with several brands. This mix is excellent; it truly contains fruit and high-end seeds. I'll definitely buy it again when it’s on sale.”

“I was a bit let down by this blend. It mostly had small black sunflower seeds with just a few peanuts and dried fruit. My birds didn't enjoy it much since they left the sunflower seeds.”

"I'm thrilled with my purchase! My birds absolutely love the taste, and it’s really fresh and healthy for them. Great quality!"

"I recently started feeding my parakeets, canaries, and finches the Wild Harvest Daily Blend Nutrition Diet, and it has been a wonderfully nutritious addition to their routine. The orange flavor is delightful and truly enhances their mealtime experience. Plus, the 10-pound size is incredibly practical and cost-effective for us bird owners!"

"My cockatiels go crazy for these seeds! They seem to enjoy the flavor and clean the bowl every time. I also mix it with other foods for my small parrot, and he loves it too. They look healthy and vibrant!"

"I live on the American River in California, and these birds are quite picky. They love this bird food! I tried a different brand, but the birds here prefer this one. The quality is great, and the size of the bag is perfect for my feeders. The food looks clean and seems to enhance the finches' color. While there is some mess on the ground, I don't mind it as it doesn't affect me. Plus, it might help grow more food for the birds!"

"I've been buying this bird seed for a while, and the birds absolutely love it! It's shell-free, which helps keep the mess down. I definitely recommend trying this product; it's now on my monthly subscription list!"

"I decided to try this brand because it was more affordable and promised less mess. The smaller birds are really attracted to it. However, larger birds and squirrels still scavenge on the ground. The 10-pound bag lasted about two weeks, and I plan to buy it again on my next visit."

"I love leaving food options out for the mama squirrel and her little ones that come to my yard. The birds, especially the crows, are also frequent visitors. This bag is a fair price for the size, and every bag I've received has been full of seeds without any filler or mold. While I don't mind the empty shells, it's something to consider."

"I feed a flock of house finches and some chickadees year-round, consuming about 10lbs per month. Living in Seattle, they rely on high-fat seeds through the winter. I believe these are some of the best quality seeds out there, and the price is great for buying in bulk. Just a tip: watch out for seeds that aren't the real black oil sunflower seeds, as they can look striped."

"These seeds are a great price for the quantity, and both the outdoor birds and my indoor red-cheeked conure love them. The squirrels also enjoy them. Overall, I'm pleased with this purchase!"

"I switched from songbird suet to this seed, and it’s been a night and day difference. I now have flocks of little Juncos and other small birds visiting my feeders consistently. They’re completely unbothered by passersby, so I’m very happy with this seed!"

"Living in the Pacific Northwest, I’ve found that the birds are obsessed with this bird seed! I’ve had to put out more because they keep coming from all over the neighborhood. It’s a joy to watch them, and my cats enjoy the view too. Highly recommend!"

"After trying different bird seeds without success, I decided to switch to this one. Within four hours, I was swarmed with birds! My cats and puppy love watching them from the window. I strongly recommend this food, especially for folks in Oklahoma!"

"My two Sun Conures can't get enough of this! I order frequently, and it usually arrives the next day, always fresh and nicely packed."

"I use this food for my Senegal parrot, and she loves it! She enjoys picking her favorites and flinging the rest, but I appreciate that it's a fortified food providing essential nutrients. I definitely recommend it!"

"My pet bird enjoys this food, and I've noticed it's always clean and mold-free. I've never had any disappointments with this product!"

"I had to stop feeding birds before because seeds attracted voles that damaged my garden. Now, I found excellent seed that's a bit pricier but attracts variety of birds without waste. I also got a feeder that keeps seeds off the ground!"

"I love seeing all the different birds around my feeder! This food is a favorite among bluejays, mockingbirds, and even ducks. I keep ordering it because it doesn't make a mess, allowing wildlife to enjoy it."

"I switched to this seed from nuts to accommodate a friend's allergy, and I was surprised to see an increase in doves visiting my feeder. The smaller birds like sparrows and titmice enjoy it too, often hanging out to eat. No mess and they are always happy!"

"I've relied on Kaytee Forti-Diet Pro Health for a while, and it's fantastic. The 4lb bag is perfect—just enough to avoid spoilage. My cockatiel loves the mix, and his feathers have become shinier and healthier since we started using it. The safflower is a favorite, and I appreciate the added nutrients for his health and happiness. The resealable bag keeps everything fresh and easy to store. I highly recommend this food!"

"For years, I've fed my birds this brand, and they are always content! I also give them a variety of foods like fruits, eggs, and my homemade rice and veggie mix. It's important to provide a balanced diet!"

"My 20-year-old cockatiel has eaten this food his entire life without any issues. He remains very healthy with minimal waste and dust!"

"I absolutely love this seed! My birds adore it and the squirrels have given up entirely. It’s such a relief to see cardinals, bluebirds, and woodpeckers every day without the squirrels hogging the feeder. I also have a water source nearby, which they really enjoy!"

"I’ve never seen my backyard birds this happy. Cole's Hot Meats is now my go-to. The squirrels have stopped raiding the feeders, allowing me to enjoy watching a beautiful variety of birds without the hassle."

"This product is a game changer! The squirrels hate it, but the birds seem to love it. I’ve finally found a way to keep those pesky squirrels away from my feeder, and I couldn’t be happier!"

"My cockatiel was dancing back and forth as I opened the package. Very colorful and the nutritious content speaks for itself. She couldn't wait to get her beak on these delightful pellets. I trust Zupreem for quality and value."

"I have tried many times to switch my Quaker Parrot from seeds to pellets, alongside fresh fruits and veggies. She refused everything until I tried these. To my surprise, she ate them without fuss, picking out her favorites first, just like kids with M&Ms. I plan to sneak in some previously refused pellets to see if she'll eat those with this mix."

"I regularly buy this fruit-flavored blend for my little buddy. It is easily digestible and nutritional for him. He absolutely loves it!"
