We use a wide range of seeds in our mixes and the following are all available as straights - in other words, on their own rather than in a mix. Please enquire with your requirements!

Often referred to as Thistle Seed, despite the fact that it isn't! These small, long black seeds are VERY popular with finches, particularly goldfinches. Being small, they are best fed from the specially designed niger feeders which we stock.

Maize that is chopped up into small pieces! Eaten mostly by larger birds such as collared doves and pheasants, but also eaten by smaller birds, including finches.
Hemp is an oil rich seed, liked by a wide range of birds. This is industrial hemp, not the narcotic variety, so there's no need to worry if some starts to sprout under the bird table - you won't be arrested!
This is the same thing as the oatmeal that people over the border use to make oatcakes! Pinhead oatmeal is particularly popular with robins and other songbirds.
Popular with canaries (surprise, surprise!) Also enjoyed by other birds though, including finches and the tit family.
Enjoyed by a whole host of seed eating birds.
Used in our squirrel food, but pine nuts are eaten by other creatures, including parrots - not that you're likely to have any on the bird table.
Not a lot you can say about flaked maize, really. It's just...well...flaked maize!
You can't beat starting the day with a bowl of porridge, and the birds would agree. Rolled oats are particularly liked by the ground feeding birds.
Much loved by blackbirds, thrushes and robins.
If you're looking for a particular type of seed, we can probably get it! Please ask, and we'll do our best.
