Welzhofer Fat feed – all-season bird feed
Welzhofer's fat feed is an energy-rich power mix suitable as an all-year-round bird feed
The basis of this classic huskless mixture is plenty of fat-coated oat flakes. The special thing about this fat feed is that the fat is natural. With its many rich nutrients, natural fat is an excellent source of energy. The fat is processed immediately in our gourmet kitchen without any additives, so it retains its intense and full flavour. Unsulphurised sultanas, peanuts and minerals round off the menu.
This concentrated mixture provides all wild bird species with essential nutrients. They form the basis of a healthy diet and are important for vitality and the immune system. The feed is particularly suitable for feeding on cold days and during the breeding and rearing period.
All the benefits of Welzhofer fat feed at a glance:
The fat feed is ideal for filling bird houses and as scatter feed, but not suitable for feeders due to its high fat content.
The fat feed is extremely tasty and is therefore picked up completely. The feeding area is clean, a lawn remains a lawn.
The variety of ingredients and their full flavour, as can be recognised by the appetising smell, attracts a large number of different birds to the garden.
The species-appropriate ingredients of the fat feed meet the nutritional requirements of birds.
We deliberately avoid preservatives and additives, and the feed is also free from artificial flavourings.
We guarantee that the fat feed does not contain any ragweed seeds, cereal seeds or fine seeds that could lead to wild growth in the garden.
