This broader ingredient list attracts a wider variety of finch species including Purple Finches, redpolls, buntings, towhees, and tanagers — that plain Nyjer® alone may not draw in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use Fancy Finch Mix in my existing Nyjer® feeder?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The seeds in Fancy Finch Mix are sized to fit through the small ports of standard Nyjer® tube feeders and sock feeders. No special equipment is needed, just fill your existing finch feeder with Fancy Finch Mix instead of plain Nyjer®.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat finches does Fancy Finch Mix attract?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFancy Finch Mix is designed to attract American Goldfinches, Lesser Goldfinches, Purple Finches, House Finches, Common Redpolls, and Pine Siskins. The canary seed and millet also draw in buntings, towhees, and tanagers that are less commonly seen at standard finch feeders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Fancy Finch Mix a no-waste seed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Every ingredient in Fancy Finch Mix is a premium seed that finches and small songbirds actively seek out. There are no filler grains like milo or wheat that birds discard. The hulled sunflower heart chips also mean no shell debris under your feeder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow often should I refill my finch feeder?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNyjer®-based blends can go stale faster than sunflower seed, especially in humid conditions. Check your feeder every 1–2 weeks and replace seed that appears clumped, discolored, or has an off smell. Finches will avoid stale seed, so freshness is key to keeping them coming back consistently.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Duncraft","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45348139598060,"sku":"8405","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/7424\/0236\/files\/8405.webp?v=1750940328","url":"https:\/\/duncraft.mom\/products\/duncraft-fancy-finch-mix-wild-bird-seed-5-lb-bag","provider":"Duncraft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
