rancid fat balls
2 Answers
has anyone else bought fat balls for the birds that smell really bad, I got a big tub of them last week but the birds won't eat them although they must have been really hungry in that cold weather, I have never had any that smelled that bad before, although I had some last year in a red net instead of green, they did'nt like them either, is someone cashing in by putting horrible cheap stuff in (although they were not cheap to buy).

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.in my experience, all fat balls smell not very nice. sometimes the birds will eat fat balls...and sometimes they won't, it's hard to tell why. the colour of the net won't make any difference, and in fact you should take them out of the net and use a fat ball holder as their claws can become entangled in the net.
i've bought cheap fat balls, and dearer ones from the rspb. sometimes they eat them voraciously and sometimes they leave them. keep putting them out and they will go eventually.
