A blend built for hopper and tub feeders needs the right seed sizes and ratios to flow properly and appeal broadly, not just whatever's cheapest to bag. Red Carpet Mix combines black oil sunflower, sunflower hearts, safflower, peanut halves, and gray-striped sunflower, bagged fresh and available here as an 8-pound bag.
What's In This All-Purpose Seed Blend?
The mix combines black oil sunflower, sunflower hearts, safflower, peanut halves, and gray-striped sunflower, bagged fresh in-store rather than sitting pre-packaged on a shelf. That mix of whole seed and hearts gives it broader appeal than a single-seed bag.
Which Feeders and Birds Is This Mix Built For?
This is the store's most popular mix for hopper and tub feeders specifically, with cardinals, chickadees, warblers, and finches named as especially frequent visitors. It's built as an all-species option rather than one targeted at a narrow set of birds.
What Bag Sizes Are Available, and Where Can You Get Each One?
Red Carpet Mix comes in 6, 8, 25, and 50-pound bags, with the 8-pound size available for store pick-up. The mix is packaged in Canada using a combination of domestic and imported ingredients, an exception noted for the 50-pound bags specifically.
Who This Seed Mix Is For
- Birders running a hopper or tub feeder who want one all-purpose mix instead of several single-seed bags
- Anyone restocking a feeding station for the season
- Gift buyers looking for a practical, consumable gift sized for easy pick-up
- Birders hoping to draw cardinals, chickadees, warblers, and finches specifically
