    Does the bucket have a handle for carrying?

    Yes

      Recently there is a lot more of this woody material in the seed. The woody material blocks up the tube and the seed will not drop down to the feeding port. Why is this happening suddenly? I have used the same seed and feeders for several years..

            What in the world is in the bag ? I always buy these seeds each month and they usually look fine. This latest bag is awful. It’s full of what looks like dry and dusty mud. Lots of debris . The seeds look dried out and broken. What happened?

              Can Pennington do something to reduce the amount of foreign content mixed in with the seeds? Referring to fragments apparently from parts of the plant other than seeds.

              Answer This Question

              Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback! We appreciate hearing from our customers. There should not be other types of seed, partial or whole, in the black oil sunflower bird feed and we apologize if that's what you're seeing! Please reach out to Consumer Services at 1-800-285-7333 so we can resolve this with you.

                  I literally scattered a ton these in some soil and now I have so many sunflowers growing. I’ve seen so many birds come by to eat and not to mention the amount of cardinals that these seeds brought is crazy. 10/10 product. Def. Recommend

                  Awful! Seed had holes and the birds would not touch it.
                  We bought it today. The container is not transparent like it shows here, on the website. All seeds have holes, it is garbage. Not good! Maybe that is why Home Depot put it in a white plastic container so we cannot see what we were buying. Pensacola buyers, those buckets are full of empty black oil seeds, do not buy!

                    waste in the seeds
                    birds love the seeds but there is a lot of wood scraps mixed into the seeds. Maybe maker is trying to add weight to the bag without adding more seed???

                      A lot of debris and other seeds/nuts this time
                      We purchase sunflower seeds every few weeks for our feathered and furry friends. We just picked up 2 20lb bags they have some other type seed or nut mixed in with them and a lot more debris than I care to pay for. In this economy Pennington should be bending over backwards to keep customers-if it gets any tighter, this will be one of the first things we stop purchasing & having junk mixed in makes us reconsider as well…..

                        My backyard birds love this seed. I have 4 feeders and the birds just keep coming. I get robins, finches, chickadees- you name it. I’ve learned to only fill them once a day otherwise the crows come and while they are interesting too, they do tend to hog up the supply.

                        Horrible Quality Control
                        Just bought this online for pickup and delivered to car. Opened it and was completely disgusted! They couldn’t see that the BLACK oiled sunflower seed bag wasn’t black! It was tanish and completely molded in big chunks!!

                          I always order Black Oil Sunflower seeds for my backyard birds. I do appreciate that Home Depot has a reasonable price for the 20 lb. bag and I usually order 2 bags. The birds love it so I buy it a lot. The only problem I have is when I open the bag there is a lot of debris in there from the sunflower stalks that I have to remove. My bird feeders have smaller holes and do work well with sunflower seeds. The problem I have is the bigger pieces of stems mixed in with the seeds. I have to remove these larger pieces so they don't block the feeder holes.
