Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a special feeder for nyjer seed?
Yes — nyjer seed is very fine and light and will fall straight through a standard seed feeder. A specialist nyjer feeder with small ports is required.

Why is nyjer seed so popular with goldfinches?
Nyjer seed is high in oil and has a thin husk that goldfinch can easily crack open with their fine bills. The high energy content makes it particularly attractive to goldfinch and siskin.

Can nyjer seed germinate?
In the right conditions, nyjer seed may germinate if it falls to the ground. Position feeders over paving or gravel if germination is a concern.
