This Nyjer wild bird seed provides an oil-rich, high-energy food source that appeals to goldfinches, siskins, redpolls, and other small songbirds. Also commonly called thistle seed, Nyjer is a tiny seed intended specifically for wild bird feeding.
The seed is heat-treated to prevent germination, helping keep fallen seed from sprouting around lawns, patios, decks, and garden beds. A resealable 5 lb bag helps maintain freshness between feeder fills.
Key Features

- Oil-rich seed supplies high-energy food for finches.
- Heat treatment prevents the seed from sprouting.
- Suitable for dedicated Nyjer tube feeders, sock feeders, and fine-mesh feeders.

Specifications
- Net weight: 5 lb.
- Seed type: Nyjer, also commonly called thistle seed.
- Contents: 100% premium Nyjer seed with no fillers.
- Feeder compatibility: Nyjer tube feeders, sock feeders, and fine-mesh feeders.
- Feeding limitation: The tiny seed needs small feeder ports; standard hopper and platform feeders have openings that may allow it to spill.

Keep the feeder consistently stocked in a stable location where finches can see it from above. Replace the seed every two to three weeks and keep the feeder clean to maintain freshness and encourage returning birds.
