      Hello everyone,
      It has been a while, but we still cater to the blues here. Farms surround me and the sparrows are out of control. Currently I have the finch socks, an upside down suet feeder and a on some days some BB suet.
      I do not know who else to ask, but is anyone else seeing the hosp on their finch socks? They are tearing holes in them!
      Anyone else?

      thanks

        Hi, Deena! HOSPs tear into bags of nyger seed and white millet in the outdoor lawn & garden areas at Lowes and Home Depot, all the time. Not uncommon behavior. In general, HOSPs are too lazy to crack open a black oil sunflower seed. They prefer the “easy” meals of nyger and millet, so I feed neither.
