Adding your feed of choice to a ground feeder is much more hygienic than simply throwing it on the ground. Whether it’s a seed mix, sunflower hearts, niger seed, or a mixture of them all, a ground feeder is the ideal way to leave out food for birds such as robins who prefer to feed from the ground. If you’d prefer to give your birds some aflatoxin tested peanuts, then it’s important to always offer these in a mesh feeder so as to avoid choking hazards.
