Suet To Go Berry Suet Pellets Wild Bird Treat, 12.75 kg

I bought these as they are advertised as Suet To Go brand, however they were not in a branded box, just labelled Premium Suet Pellets. They are much more dusty & crumbly than the Suet To Go pellets I have previously bought, & I don't believe they are are as advertised.

The pellets themselves are fine, and this is a good price for them. The delivery was also very fast and efficient.HOWEVER ...the outer cardboard box was fine, but when I cut it open I was dismayed to find the pellets were encased in tissue paper. Nothing else. Not even heavy duty packing paper, but actual TISSUE paper. It immediately began to disintigrate when I tried to open it, especially as it was stuck to the inside of the cardboard box.Fortunately I had a few sturdy containers to transfer the pellets to, but it took quite a while to scoop them all out (and clean up the floor afterwards) as this is a large and very heavy box.Saving on plastic is a wonderful ecological move, but better paper exists for packaging. I'd suggest they use it. If this box had been left outdoors in the wet, this would have become quite a mess.Hence the 3, rather than 5 stars, which I would have given had the pellets arrived in sensible packaging.

Doesn't crumble and get wasted like other brands, the birds don't leave a trace, maybe too nice

very good product

I have previously bought this brand and been very happy with the quality : the birds also love these suet pellets. The reason for 3* rating is not for product quality, rather the packaging. No brand name on box as per photo on Amazon site and unfortunately not packaged in protective plastic, again, as previously received and currently advertised on website. I know we're doing our best to reduce the use of plastic, but such an amount of loose suet pellets in a cardboard box is definitely not satisfactory so far as I'm concerned....... Added 17/03/22 I am now wondering if these are genuine 'suet to go' as having fed birds with the new batch recently received I find the quality dry and less fatty than my previous purchases.......

Brought suet with mealworm. Starlings and sparrows and other birds love it. So I am happy.Just trying to figure out a way so that all birds can eat in harmony.Update : 21/11 - these lasted more than 3 months. And all birds seem to have loved it. But I don’t think I would buy it again. Because (1) EVERYTIMe it got a bit wet, it sets like cement which birds don’t like(2) my grass under the feeder looks white from the dust of suet pallet (3) i stored this in my shed and found that towards the end it was going mouldy so had to throw away. If I need to buy again, will get it locally in small quantities- sure is hassle and not a good value for money but where is the value when one ends up throwing a lot of this big bag stuff too. Reducing my rating from 5 to 3 now.

The birds like it, most days though the pellets at the bottom get eaten and the ones above don’t drop down. Maybe it’s the length of the pellets?

I like this product because it doesn't flake like the last suet pellets I had bought.The crows I feed, absolutely love this stuff.I'll be re-ordering when I run out (which won't be for a while yet).
