how do I mix wild bird food using peanut butter?

Question

am using bird seed and cornmeal as well

Answer 1

I found a recipe online, here it is:

Bird Bread

This recipe is from the Bird Watcher's Digest.
2 c. melted peanut butter, bacon grease, meat grease or other fat
2 c. cornmeal, or stale dry cereal blended into crumbs
Warm water
2 to 3 c. wild birdseed
Raisins, nutmeats or chopped peanuts

Slowly melt peanut butter, grease or fat over low heat. Add cornmeal or stale cereal crumbs. Slowly add enough warm water to make a stiff dough, then add birdseed and raisins, nutmeats or chopped peanuts. Pack mixture into small foil pans or a large flat pan and refrigerate overnight. Cut into pieces for tying onto tree branches.

Answer 2

Hi Karen, As you know i feed the birds in my garden. I find them endlessly fascinating (and hungry) I am very surprised at some of the things on your list and will certainly be a lot more careful in future! I usually feed my birds on peanuts and seed from the pet shop, along with fatty mixtures in the winter months. Thanks for the information very useful to know and I am off now to do some research of my own.

First make sure you're not using Peter Pan peanut butter with 2111 on the product code - or you'll have dead wild birds.

Answer 4

just mix the bird feed up in the peanut buter
