Just like it is natural namesake this cone looks perfect hanging from a tree. It is not just for looks however – our carefully crafted seed cone will attract birds from far and wide. 

Our premium New Zealand-grown seeds are high in energy and rich in essential nutrients, providing a boost for wild birds when food is scarce. When these highly nutritious seeds are sculpted into an easy-use seed treat you will find the local birds will soon find their way to your place.

  • Perfect for colder months when food is scarce
  • Easy to hang
  • Your Seed Cone can attract finches, pigeons, rosella and more…
  • Set it up high off the ground to avoid predators

Feeding Guide: Protect your bird buddies from anything that might pounce while they peck! Place your see cone well off the ground to keep birds safe from predators. It may take some time for the birds to recognise the new food so do not be discouraged if they do not turn up straight away. Be sure to replenish food regularly during autumn and winter also because that is when they’ll need it most.

Ingredients: Wheat, barley, NZ sunflower seeds, oats, sorghum, kale, canary seed, grass seed, edible binding agent.

Analysis: Protein 15.2%, fibre 10.3%, fat 16.6%

FAQs

Where can commercially compostable packaging be processed in New Zealand?

A number of facilities around New Zealand accept commercially compostable packaging, and the list is growing.

  • Christchurch City Council Organics Processing Plant – Operated by Living Earth
  • Capital Compost – Wellington Southern Landfill
  • Revital - Central North Island including Waikato, Bay of Plenty and Taranaki
  • Palmerston North City Council (Awapuni Resource Recovery Park)
  • Hampton Organics – Hampton PARRC - Waikato
  • Envirofert Limited - Auckland & Waikato

An alternative is to find someone locally who makes “hot compost”. In this method of composting, the temperature of the heap rises to 55°C, just like a commercial facility. Our packaging will break down in a well-managed hot compost heap.
