Mr. Bird Safflower Feast Seed Cakes
$30.00
Mr. Bird Safflower Feast is solid compressed safflower that cardinals, grosbeaks, chickadees, titmice and house finches love, while squirrels, grackles, blackbirds and starlings tend to leave it alone. It's a simple way to feed the birds you want in a yard full of squirrels.
Key Features
- 100% safflower: safflower and a gelatin binder, nothing else.
- Squirrels tend to avoid it: safflower is one of the least squirrel-friendly seeds.
- Discourages bully birds: grackles, blackbirds and starlings usually pass it by.
- No mess: birds can't scatter the seed, so nothing sprouts below.
- Never melts: feeds year-round.
- Made in the USA: by Mr. Bird.

Feeding & Storage Tips
- Cakes fit a standard suet basket or seed cake / suet feeder; cylinders slide onto a cylinder feeder such as the Mr. Bird Large Cylinder EZ Feeder or Mr. Bird Small Cylinder Feeder.
- A Mr. Bird Rain Guard over a cylinder keeps it dry and makes it last longer.
- Seed cakes don't melt, so they work through Omaha summers as well as winters.
- If your birds are new to safflower, give them a week or two to find it.
FAQ
Will squirrels eat it?
Squirrels tend to avoid safflower. A very hungry squirrel may still sample it; a baffle helps in tough cases.
Why aren't my birds eating it yet?
Birds can take time to try a new food. Offer it near a feeder they already use.
Cake or cylinder?
Cakes fit any suet basket. Cylinders need a cylinder feeder and last longer between refills.
Do you sell loose safflower?
Yes: Golden Safflower and White Safflower.
Tip: Want the golden variety in cake form? Try Golden Safflower Seed Cakes.
