1. Whole Peanuts

Whole peanuts provide wild birds with essential fat and protein during winter, which they crave as food sources. Woodpeckers and blue jays in particular love them! It is also popular among squirrels and chipmunks as high-quality shelled bird food is enjoyed by both species.

No matter if they’re used in a platform feeder, mesh or hopper bird feeder, or added into your own custom seed blend – peanuts will bring birds flocking. Cardinals, nuthatches, jays and titmice alike will soon come flocking in to feast upon these tasty treats!

Peanuts make for easy cleanup in your backyard, with no shell litter left behind to be cleaned up later on. Furthermore, this wild bird food tends to spoil less quickly than other types of seed.

2. Crushed Peanuts

Birds love peanuts as a delicious source of fat, protein and nutrition for wild birds. By offering whole or crushed peanuts you can attract different bird species.

Crushed peanuts are easily digested by small birds such as wrens and robins, making them the ideal base of an effective homemade bird feeder. You can combine crushed peanuts with other foods like seeds, suet fat cakes or even fresh fruits to create your own personalized bird feeder!

Woodpeckers, titmice and nuthatches are just a few species of birds who enjoy snacking on whole or chopped peanuts as part of a delicious food blend that draws them all to your backyard feeder. Their irresistibly nutty scent will draw wild birds as well as squirrels in for some tasty snacks! You’re likely to witness plenty of activity at your feeder!

3. Peanuts in the Shell

Peanuts in their shell are one of the best ways to attract birds and squirrels into your yard, drawing many different varieties. No matter where they’re placed – from traditional platform feeders and specialty peanut feeders to simply laying on the ground – peanuts will surely bring out many feathered friends!

Peanuts in their shell are ideal food sources for larger bird species like jays, crows and grackles; chickadees, titmice and nuthatches also love these in-shell treats; these songbirds use their beaks to break open and shatter each nut into pieces they can devour before stashing unshelled peanuts away under tree bark, crevices or beside rocks to enjoy later.

Blue Jays are another avid consumer of in-shell peanuts. When feeding at their feeder, they frequently come swooping down and grab several at once before stuffing them into their throat pouch and beak.

4. Peanuts in a Mesh Feeder

Excellent price point and highly popular with the birds; Twootz always delivers in excellent time!

Peanuts provide essential oils, protein and nutrients that wild birds rely on for survival in harsh weather. Peanuts’ high-fat content also aids their ability to keep these birds warm and active throughout colder periods by providing extra calories that keep their bodies running efficiently.

Woodpeckers, nuthatches, blue tits, long-tailed tits and more will enjoy feeding off a feeder stocked with whole peanuts.

For maximum bird safety, use a mesh feeder with drainage slots to avoid choking hazards and deter squirrels – an issue common with many bird feeders. The Spruce Quick-Clean feeder comes equipped with drainage slots to avoid clogging while being easy to assemble and clean up after.

5. Peanuts in a Squirrel Proof Feeder

Peanuts provide birds with essential energy sources for many activities they engage in. As well as providing abundant fat and energy sources, peanuts also contain protein, calcium and other vital nutrients which may otherwise be scarce sources of nourishment. Peanuts can help birds remain warm and hydrated during cold weather if other food sources become scarcer than usual.

Woodpeckers, Titmice, Jays and Chickadees all love whole peanuts! If you want to attract them as well as other species of birds to your property, use this deluxe squirrel proof feeder.

This feeder is easy to hang, has a large capacity, and features a mesh window which keeps out larger birds while still allowing smaller species such as tits and sparrows to feed readily. Furthermore, it comes backed with a two year hassle free warranty.
