Two premium ingredients. Zero shells. Maximum birds.
Peanut Bits & Sunflower Hearts is the no-waste blend built for birders who want results without the mess. Every piece in this bag is 100% edible — peanut bits that woodpeckers, nuthatches, and jays can't resist, combined with hulled sunflower hearts that virtually every feeder bird will eat. No shells to crack, no hulls to pile up, nothing that sprouts in your lawn. Just two of the most bird-attractive ingredients available, working together in one clean, high-value blend.
What's in the blend.
Two ingredients, both premium, both hulled: peanut bits for the nut-seeking species that often get overlooked by standard seed mixes, and sunflower hearts for the broadest possible appeal across all feeder birds. Together they cover a wider range of species than either ingredient alone, with no filler and no waste.
- Peanut bits — irresistible to woodpeckers, nuthatches, jays, and chickadees
- Sunflower hearts — hulled, high-energy, eaten by virtually every feeder bird
- 100% edible — no shells, no hulls, nothing discarded
- Won't sprout on your lawn, patio, or garden beds
- No cleanup under your feeder
- Ideal for year-round feeding in any season
- 5 lb resealable bag — available exclusively at Duncraft
Birds attracted: Downy Woodpeckers, Hairy Woodpeckers, Red-bellied Woodpeckers, White-breasted Nuthatches, Blue Jays, Black-capped Chickadees, Tufted Titmice, Northern Cardinals, House Finches, Dark-eyed Juncos, and many more.
How to feed: Works in any hopper, tube, platform, or tray feeder. Because both ingredients are hulled and bite-sized, they flow well through most port sizes and are accessible to birds of all sizes. Ideal for deck and patio feeding where a completely shell-free experience is the priority.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Peanut Bits & Sunflower Hearts different from other no-waste blends?
Most no-waste blends focus on sunflower chips and millet. Peanut Bits & Sunflower Hearts specifically combines two of the highest-value ingredients for attracting nut-seeking species — woodpeckers, nuthatches, and jays — alongside the universal appeal of hulled sunflower. The result is a blend that attracts a wider range of species, including many that standard no-waste mixes miss.
What birds are attracted to peanut bits?
Peanut bits are especially attractive to Downy, Hairy, and Red-bellied Woodpeckers, White-breasted Nuthatches, Blue Jays, Black-capped Chickadees, and Tufted Titmice. These species are often underrepresented at feeders stocked only with sunflower or millet, making peanut bits a powerful addition for birders who want more variety.
Will this blend sprout or leave a mess under my feeder?
No. Both peanut bits and sunflower hearts are fully processed and hulled, so neither ingredient can germinate. There are no shells to accumulate under your feeder. This makes Peanut Bits & Sunflower Hearts one of the cleanest options available for deck, patio, and balcony feeding.
Is this blend good for year-round feeding?
Yes. The high fat and protein content of both peanut bits and sunflower hearts makes this an excellent year-round food source. In winter, the concentrated energy helps birds maintain body heat. In spring and summer, it supports nesting adults and growing fledglings. Woodpeckers and nuthatches are resident species that visit feeders in every season.
What feeder works best with Peanut Bits & Sunflower Hearts?
Any hopper, tube, platform, or tray feeder works well. Because both ingredients are bite-sized and hulled, they flow easily through most port sizes. A platform or hopper feeder gives the widest variety of birds — including larger species like woodpeckers and jays — comfortable access to the blend.
