DIY: How to make fat balls for birds

Just remember, fat balls also attract rats

E così gli uccelli si mangiano il grasso vegetale, buona cosa? Perchè non mettere i semi in una ciotolina, troppo semplice?

😘

the only problem with this is that many of the birds actually need animal based protein and fat. Many of the vegetable oils are not suitable for many of the species. I like the initiative to consume less meat but there is a dangerous trend to turn dogs, cats, birds, etc. into vegans as well.

Vegetables don’t have fat—vegetable shortening is made from hydrogenated, genetically modified omega-6 rich soybean oil and fully hydrogenated palm oil—only problem is neither soybeans nor palm fruit are vegetables. So not only is “vegetable” shortening bad for consumption (increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, and cancer), manufacturing these products is abusing the planet to grow the crops needed to create these oils which includes deforesting sacred lands, displacing indigenous people, losing biodiversity and increasing air pollution with insane levels of carbon emissions. Use suet or lard instead.

Just pour them on a wall

Fat balls for birds during the day and will surely feed the rats by night.

Why put the seeds in a glass cup to then put in a bowl 😂

I use lard and make them for mine and my brothers porch. They are gone after a few hours so no worry of rats. But the cats would love so e rat

Winter is most difficult for almost everything alive
