Cole's NI05 Straight Bird Seed, 5 lb Bag, Ingredients: 100% Niger Seed, Corn, Oats, Peanut Butter, Peanuts

Niger Seed, often mistakenly called Thistle seed, is a favorite of beautiful wild Finches like the American Goldfinch. Imported from Africa and sterilized upon entry to prevent germination, this special seed is a great source of energy due to its high oil content. When served straight, it is used in a specifically designed tubular feeder, like the Nifty Niger feeder or thistle sock with small holes where it can be economically dispensed.
