Cheaper still....melt crisco and blend your ingredients...melt a cup of peanut butter (dollar store)...corn meal...cheap oats...mix, blend freeze and put in suet cages.......BIRDS LOVE IT....PUT FLOUR IN MIX FOR NOMELT SUET!
The little birdies up here in Central Minnesota tend to go for the smaller millet seeds, which are more expensive in the bird seed store bags. I buy big bags like your mixture online ~but I do see I need to add some of that smaller millet. The big birds want bigger chunks of fruit and things like that and nuts and so I’ll spend the money on that but try to mix various big bags I could get delivered. When the birds don’t like what’s in the feeder they don’t leave it alone they pull it all out till they find what they want. But in the end the snow melts and the ground shows all the spilled seeds ~the larger flocks of red wing blackbirds, grackles, and crows will show up and eat it all eventually. I bought some suet online some high protein suet and the woodpeckers won’t even touch it because it has GMO corn in it. The animals can tell the difference.
I started feeding the birds during the extreme heat and drought here in Louisiana this year and they helped by hunting down my garden pests each morning. I don`t use poisons except for some dust I had to put on my amaranth to save it from worms but I only used a tiny bit once. I put trail cameras out where I feed them and captured some great pictures.
Omg this is so funny. I just fed the birds and used the last of our bird seed. I came inside for coffee and a bite to eat and I seen this notification 🤣
Thanks Papa this is great suggestion, I need to make 500 heart shape bird food for a project and the prices online is almost $700 plus dollars and delivery is not even guaranteed so this suggestion helps me create mini pouches as a favor.
When I see milo I think of the 55 gallon barrel we had at the corner of the garage filled with a couple bags of milo and water, it stunk! But dang it is a good catfish attractant
Inthoght PAPA was gonna break out the still when I seen that cracked corn😆🍺 PAPA & Madi keeping our feathered friends full and happy! And saving some cash doing it👌 thanks for sharing brother, have yourself a great one, you all stay safe!👍👊🍻🇺🇲
Great idea! I should look out for those bulk bags as I spend a fortune on bird seed! I have a lot of birds in my garden though and they seem to invite their friends! 🙈😂. Great job Madi! ♥️
Yes! I just bought a bird feeder and the premade cakes! Those were not cheap considering everyone came from far and wide and attacked it all lol, was gone in a week. So I need a cheaper way..

Your son would have a blast mixing and bagging bird seed. And then you get to save money!
Yes! I just bought a bird feeder and the premade cakes! Those were not cheap considering everyone came from far and wide and attacked it all lol, was gone in a week.
So I need a cheaper way..
Great video PAPA Texas! Surprised you don’t have more subs 🤔Where do you buy the corn chops and milo? Hard to find anything on the internet
Thanks Gooch, I buy mine at Feed Stores. (Farm Supply Stores)

Easy to do and a money saver!
You’ve gone to the Birds PT!

Feed Store
Harvester ants would love those seeds as well ☝️

👍
Wow
Papa Texas how do I get that when I can't drive anymore can't get anywhere I need to order a bag
See if your local feed store delivers!
Thanks
I heard the ducks love this mix!
Where do u get supplies
I go to my local Farmer Supply Store
I wonder if mixing in cayenne pepper will keep the squirrels out of it.
I have heard that works.
Is this only good for wild birds?
I wouldn't feed this to a pet bird
:-)) hey hello dear Papa Texas... just coming from the anouncement :-)) what did you screw up big time??? Was it a joke .-)) Happy Easter anyways!!! :-)))
We screwed up on the Pizza pocket video Simone!
Hello, PAPA Texas.
I watched your latest video, but the comments are turned-off😱
Yea, I did that on purpose Ms. Money. Hope you had a great day!
