Suet pellets / nibbles and sprinkles FAQs
What are suet pellets?
Previously known as nibbles and sprinkles, suet pellets are a small, high-energy food designed for wild birds, usually made of seed, animal fat and insects.
Are suet pellets good for birds?
Yes, suet pellets/nibbles and sprinkles are a great source of nutrition for a variety of birds. The pellets are easily digestible and energy-dense. They are ideal for fuelling birds in the winter months when food is scarce.
What birds eat suet pellets?
Suet pellets, or nibbles and sprinkles, are enjoyed by many species of wild birds. Some of the most common birds that consume suet pellets are Robins, Blackbirds and tits.
Placement of your suet pellets is important to consider. By scattering them on the ground you’ll attract larger birds such as Blackbirds and Starlings. If you place them in a suet or seed feeder, you’ll give smaller birds a chance to eat too, as the larger birds are not able to consume food upside down.
Can ducks eat suet pellets?
No, ducks and other water birds like swans should not be fed suet pellets/nibbles and sprinkles as animal fats are not part of their natural diet. The fats are not easily digestible and have the potential to cause health problems if they consume too much.
