Black Oil Sunflower Seed works well in tube, platform and house type feeders. Feeding Year Round: Turn your backyard into a natural habitat for birds by feeding them year-round. While winter creates a demand for a high energy diet, spring and early summer find nature's food in short supply. A plentiful supply of Pennington's vitamin enriched bird foods will attract newly hatched birds, as well as many other varieties of migrating birds not seen during the winter months. It's important to always provide a supply of fresh seed in your feeders at all times. Make it a habit to clean out the feeder before adding fresh seed. A constant supply of clean water is needed especially during harsh winter months. About Pennington Bird Seeds: In 1960, Pennington Seed established a bird feed experiment station which offered birds a choice of 48 different types of seed. The intake amounts of each variety were measured and recorded weekly. Using this valuable information, along with research on nutritional values, Pennington was able to determine specific formulas preferred by the different bird types. Today, the birds' choice of seed, their dietary requirements and the food value of each ingredient is used to establish a balanced ration. In addition, vitamin and mineral supplements, not readily available in nature, are added to the bird seed mixtures, creating an enriched seed diet birds love. Bird-Kote is a special coating added to the seed when it is packaged. It contains added nutrients, vitamins and minerals for birds. Vitamin A and D-3 are also added to replace their natural deficiency in seed. The vegetable oil used in Bird-Kote enhances birds' attraction to the seed, as well as adding a concentrated source of energy.Ingredients
