Why Feed Suet?
A. For most birds, suet is a perfect food source. Because they have such fast metabolisms, birds need to eat as many calories as possible. Available suet bird feeders offer a ready supply to help them conserve energy for the never ending search for insects, seeds, fruit and other foods. It is also a perfect low maintenance bird feeder for us to offer. A suet bird feeder is simply a metal cage holding a suet cake. It only needs to be refilled every few weeks, it never needs to be scrubbed clean, there is no mess left under the bird feeder and it stays out all year long. What could be easier? The commercially made suet cakes are inexpensive and easy to use. Best of all, almost all birds will eat suet.
