Good morning Marie! Thank you for watching and for making our little feathered friends some winter treats! That is a great idea to give as gifts for your Amish friends too! Take care and have a lovely New Year!
Watching some of your older videos, I was just going to make some suet for my bird feeders ! For Xmas gifts this year I glued tea cups tipped over on their saucers and filled with suet .
Good morning! Thank you very much for watching and for your lovely message! I love those little rings too...a girl at work gave them to me years ago and I think they are just perfect for making suet "donuts" for the little birds 😄 Have a great day! 🌷
Hey Kelvin! Thank you so much...those chickens and birds must appreciate my treats as they seem happy flitting around! 😊 Thank you for joining me today and have a wonderful evening!
I can understand why Ottis would want to eat that suet Alana😋 looks delicious. Its cold here too and I feed the birds all year. Thanks for this tutorial I will need to try this! Mom is visiting (Feb 18 ) Bernice for a few weeks . Hope she gets to meet you!!
Good morning Geri! Haha...Otis will eat anything but I have to admit, the suet did look good enough to eat! Bernice was in to the store yesterday and she is excited to see your Mom...I hope I get to meet her! Have a great day Geri and thank you for watching!
Thanks! I haven’t tried it yet but will and going to see if adding the string into the cake and then freezing will work without breaking apart the cakes.
@@alanacawker-therusticwife My wife and I already made a batch this evening and put 2 cakes out, Consistency was easy to make the cakes, came out of the freezer solid and smelled delightful, excited to see the morning bird feeding frenzy.
Hi there...thank you very much for watching and for your kind message! There is quite a great article I have read regarding this issue...I can link it below for you if you would like to read it! Thank you again and I hope you have a great evening! bitchinchickens.com/2020/12/07/myth-buster-is-oatmeal-harmful-to-chickens/
Hi. Thanks for the video/ Where can you get good quality but inexpensive bird seed (in Ontario)? I've never seen dried apples, cranberries, and oatmeal used as bird seed. I take it that it works well?
Good morning! Thank you very much for watching and for your message! The birds really seem to love the dried fruit and rolled oats but I found they leave raisins for some reason! The chickens also love the dried fruit and oats too! I usually get my bird seed at our feed store...the prices are much higher in the last year compared to others but when I buy a larger bag, it saves a bit of money compared to getting smaller ones at the hardware stores or Canadian Tire stores. I hope that helps and that you have a lovely day!
@@alanacawker-therusticwife Hi again. Thanks for your reply. I checked our local feed store and they do have pretty good prices on seed. (BTW, i used your recipe for mincemeat and I received rave reviews on my tarts and turnover. I'm enjoying one right now in fact. Many thanks for that too!!)
Good morning! Haha! They do look delicious, don't they? James would certainly get a surprise biting into one of those "bagels" 😀 Take care and thank you very much for watching!
Please that's a lot of oats, dear❤. I've done a great deal of research for the care of healthy hens. Please look up ,should I be feeding oats to my chicken.? They can NOT digest it. Their intestines blow up. It can kill them. Yet many say its OK. If just a small amount mixed with other ingredients just as you're doing. Just not 3 cups. There are so many other ingredients to choose from. Flax .teff, and so on 😊. I study chicken care every day, because most have their own way of doing things and we like to share. I do just as you but with 1 half cup of oats, please please do the research, you'll be surprised, I was. Agape love ❤😊
Your little feathered friends will thank you for this winter treat! ❤️
great idea..going 2 makes these for my amish friends outside of hanover ontario were its pretty cold all winter and the birds love 2 visit🤗

Heat your peanut butter and lard together . Makes it easier to mix .

Thanks for the video! What are the yellow birds here?
P.s. a little honey molasses and kelp has many health benefits agape ❤
How do you serve frozen cranberries
Spray your pans with cooking spray . It makes UN molding easier.
Another great tip...I ran the underside of the pan under hot water for a second but your way seems easier...some of mine fell into the sink! 😄
Hi looks great but now I'm wondering about the amount of oatmeal after reading comments. Hmmmm guess ill look it up
