Great British Suet Balls (no nets)

Well, the birds find them yummy - I haven't tried them! After buying basic, hard fatballs which were not particularly well-received, these suet balls are a big hit, especially with long-tailed tits, woodpeckers and robins, the latter sitting on the feeder tray (past problems with rats requiring trays under feeders). They do make a sticky, squodgy mess on the tray due to the recent rainfall but regular cleaning helps. I now wouldn't buy any other fatball.

They aren’t very pretty to look at but the birds don’t care. They absolutely love them

Never any left! Speaks for itself. I usually crumble them up as easier to eat when the weather is freezing

These suet balls have been a previous staple for all of our visitors. Unfortunately the last box I purchased the balls were extremely hard, they were hard before the cold snap we experienced. I also looked at buying just a pack of 6 which were also very hard so did not. Has the recipe changed? Even the jackdaws who normally eat anything weren’t keen!
I have previously reviewed these at 5 stars so disappointed with the last purchase.

My sparrows love the Great British Suet Ball. I had bought the cheaper suet balls ( also without nets) and put them alternately in the holder. They ate all the Great British suet balls and left the cheaper ones until they had no alternative. So I just ordered the nicer ones for them and will do so in future.
