Read the name against the composition

Insects are 0.4%, and ground peanuts are in the list with no percentage against them at all, which matters if you are avoiding peanuts near a feeder or have a nut allergy in the house. Honeyfields also declare preservatives and colourants without naming any of them, and various sugars the same way. If what you want is an insect-rich food for a garden full of insectivores, this is not it. If what you want is a cheap, dense block of winter calories, that is exactly what it is. Nothing supplied to us says whether a holder is included, so assume you need a suet block cage already.

Why we chose it

A suet block is the cheapest calorie in the wild bird aisle and this is one of the cheapest blocks on the list, which is the entire reason it is stocked. The energy figure is published, so you can actually compare it against the fat balls sitting next to it. I would rather sell an honest block of fat than an expensive one with a mealworm on the front.

Full description

Insects are in the name of this block and they are 0.4% of it. That is not a scandal — nobody buys a suet block for its insect content, they buy it for energy — but it is worth reading before paying a premium over the plain one on the same shelf.

What the block is actually made of is cereals, oils and fats including ruminant tallow, seeds and ground peanuts, along with various sugars and those insects at 0.4%. Gross energy is 505Kcal/100g and crude protein is 8.6%, which is the shape you want in a winter food: fat doing the work, protein second. Honeyfields describe it as highly palatable and easy to consume, and name the colder months and the breeding season as the times it earns its place.

Who it's for: garden feeders keeping the calories going through winter and the breeding season, where the job is fuel rather than variety, and anyone already running a block feeder who wants to fill it cheaply.
