FAQ's:

What makes Lyric Fruit & Nut different from other fruit & Nut mixes?

• Nuts:
  In order to make a genuine fruit and nut mix, it is important to start with a wide range of highly palatble nuts. Lyric begins by using roasted, shelled peanuts and Valencia peanuts - sweet, raw peanuts grown primarily in the Southwest. Valencia peanuts have a bright red skin that adds color and nutrition to the mix. Three of the most bird-desirable tree nuts are added next: almonds, pecans and cashews. Pistachios complete the nut portion of the recipe adding more color and variety.
• Fruits:
  Cherries, cranberies and raisins are viewed as three of the most acceptable fruits for wild birds. The contrast in colors of Lyric Fruit & Nut adds to the attractiveness of the mix.
• Bird Favorites:
  A filler-free mix of sunflower kernels, shelled pumpkin seeds and steamed, crimped corn is added to the Lyric Fruit & Nut. These prized are highly palatable to birds. A touch of a bird staple - black oil sunflower completes this unique mix.

What feeder should be used for Lyric Fruit & Nut Mix?

• Any hopper or tray-style feeder can be used to get the widest of variety of birds. You can limit the variety of birds by using specialized feeders for woodpeckers and other birds like nuthatches that do not require perches.
