Feeding peanut butter to garden birds has become a popular trend, and it’s a delightful sight in your garden. It is important, however, to provide birds with special bird peanut butter instead of the type intended for human consumption. This peanut butter contains unroasted peanuts and has no added salt, making it a healthier alternative for your garden birds.
You can offer this bird peanut butter in one of our peanut butter jar holders. It comes in various flavors such as original, forest fruits, and with mealworms. There’s also a convenient variety pack for those who want to offer the birds some variation.
Bird Peanut Butter: A Vital Energy Source for Garden Birds
During the cold autumn and winter months, birds need extra energy to stay warm. This special bird peanut butter is designed to meet that need, providing essential fats and oils that serve as a critical energy source, particularly in winter. By offering this peanut butter, you help birds survive the cold months and increase their chances of survival.
The base of this bird peanut butter is made from peanut meal from oil-rich peanuts, beef tallow, and cornmeal. Beef tallow and peanut meal are both rich in fats, providing nutritious calories, while cornmeal helps maintain the right melting point. Even in spring warmth, the peanut butter won’t liquefy, and there’s no risk of it sticking to the birds' feet or feathers. Additionally, the peanuts have been tested for the absence of toxic aflatoxin, ensuring the high quality of the bird peanut butter.
It’s not necessary to feed peanut butter to birds in the summer, but if done correctly, it won’t harm them. Be sure to avoid placing the peanut butter in direct sunlight, as this can affect its quality. Hang the jar in the shade during hot weather and check periodically to ensure it’s still in good condition.
