Why we chose it

Nyjer seed is the reliable way to bring goldfinches to a garden feeder, and buying it as a 25kg sack rather than small bags is simply cheaper per feed once you know a feeder gets regular use. It is a straight seed rather than a blend, so you know exactly what is going down.

Pack size: 25kg
Seed type: Straight nyjer
Best suited to: Nyjer feeders

Full description

Put a nyjer feeder out and the birds that turn up first are usually goldfinches - it is close to their favourite seed, and a feeder built for it (with the smaller holes nyjer needs) will pull them in ahead of almost anything else on offer. That is really the whole case for buying it as its own product rather than folding it into a general mix.

Marriage's supply it as a straight seed rather than part of a blend, described as high in oil, which is what gives small birds the energy density they need in cold weather. It can be scattered into an existing mix or fed on its own, and it is best offered through a dedicated nyjer feeder rather than a standard hopper, since ordinary feeder holes are too large for it and most of it will end up on the ground.

Common questions

Will this attract goldfinches?

Marriage's describe nyjer as a particular goldfinch favourite, and it is one of the main reasons people buy it.

Can I add it to my existing seed mix?

Yes, it can be fed alone or added to your usual mix.

Do I need a special feeder for it?

It is best fed through a nyjer feeder, which has smaller holes suited to the seed - a standard hopper feeder will waste most of it.
