Product description
Black Oil Sunflower Seed: The Superstar of Bird Feeding! Song Birds like Finches and all-stars like Cardinals and Blue Jays love black oil sunflower seed.
Cardinals
Cardinals have strong, conical beaks that are perfectly adapted for cracking open the thin shells of black oil sunflower seeds. This makes them an efficient and satisfying food source. Cardinals seem to have a preference for the taste of black oil sunflower seeds compared to other seed varieties. This is likely due to the high oil content, which makes the seeds more palatable.
Blue Jays
Black oil sunflower seeds are a common component of many birdseed mixes, so Blue Jays are often familiar with them and readily recognize them as a food source. Black oil sunflower seeds are packed with fat and protein, which are essential nutrients for Jays, especially during the breeding season and winter months when energy demands are high.
Finch
Unlike striped sunflower seeds, black oil sunflower seeds have thinner shells, making it easier for finches, with their smaller beaks, to crack open and access the nutritious kernel inside. Besides fat, black oil sunflower seeds also offer protein and other essential nutrients that support finches’ overall health and well-being.

Fresh seeds that make a great treat
My chickens are fussy about what they get as treats. There is one squirrel who has tried to eat his way into the bin in which we store treats!! The seeds smell good when we dispense them to our girls. Prices have increased during the pandemic but it is worth feeding the chickens with good sunflower seed as treats.
