Wagner’s Nyjer Seed is the absolute favorite of Finches, such as the American Goldfinch, House Finch, Purple Finch, Pine Siskin and other small songbirds. This tiny delicacy is used in finch feeders which have smaller holes and tiny perches – perfect for the Finches but discouraging to larger birds. Wagner’s Nyjer Seed is the perfect choice for nurturing Finches with its high fat and protein content. Sometimes referred to as “black gold,” nyjer seed may seem more expensive than some premium blends, it actually lasts longer as it packs an incredible 150,000 seeds per pound and the seeds create no waste, no mess, no growth and more visits to your feeder. Fill your Finch feeder with Wagner’s Nyjer Seed and enjoy the antics of these beautiful and sociable birds in your backyard. Trust your backyard birds to the experts at Wagner’s.

Finches love this seed!
The yellow finches in my yard love this seed! There will often be 6 at a time on my feeder. Donât be fooled with less expensive thistle seed. Itâs not the same.

Attracts so many birds
Added this to our bird buffet and attracted endless finches. We use a mesh bag feeder. The shells do leave a mess, so place with that in mind. We’ll worth it with all the bird watching it brings

Great Product, Great Price, Small Packaging Problem
This was my fourth order of a 10 pound bag of Wagner’s Nyjer Thistle. My finches love it and the price is excellent.Unfortunately, this particular bag had a small leak and thistles would spill out every time it was lifted up or put down. I went to Amazon, reported the problem and a new bag should arrive tomorrow.Five stars for product quality and customer service. Minus one star for packaging quality control.

Great for Finches
Great for finches. We mix this into a bag of no waste fruit and nut blend so we get a mix of finches, chickadees, jays, and mockingbirds. Plus the mourning doves play clean-up for anything that hits the ground.
