New hungry mouths.

It's at this time of year that our newly fledged birds can do with a bit of a boost

Live meal worms are pretty much guaranteed to get birds into your garden (even your hand) especially Robins and Blackbirds. And it's satisfying to know that by continuing to feed your birds you are helping them survive what is becoming a topsy turvy year, weather wise.

We have several mixes with dried meal worms included, Fledgling Saver, Super Mix also with fruit and a full range of live and dried meal worms in stock.
