Bird Song- Fat Balls

Give your garden birds something to sing about. Heatherlea Bird Song Fat Balls are made from 100% natural ingredients and are completely net-free — making them a safer, more environmentally friendly choice for your feathered visitors. Expect regulars like robins, house sparrows, chaffinches, and blue tits to come flocking.

Simply pop them into a fat ball feeder, hang it in the garden, and let nature do the rest. For best results, position your feeder around 2 metres from the nearest shrub or hedge — close enough for birds to feel safe, far enough to spot it easily.

Our top tips for a bird-friendly garden:

  • Offer fresh water — A bird bath or hanging water drinker alongside your feeder makes your garden far more attractive to birds, especially in summer when water dries up and winter when it freezes over.
  • Feed all year round — Once birds recognise your garden as a reliable food source, they'll keep coming back. Year-round feeding also helps your local bird population through unexpected food shortages in any season.
  • Be patient — If you're new to feeding birds, it may take a little time before they discover your feeder. Stick with it — they'll find you!
  • Top up in the morning — Refill feeders early to ensure food is available when birds are hungriest, replacing energy lost overnight.
  • Keep things clean — Remove wet or stale food daily, and regularly clean feeders and bird baths with a bird-safe disinfectant such as Johnson's Clean 'n' Safe Bird Disinfectant to help prevent the spread of disease.
