Corn Bird Food
Corn bird food such as dried whole kernel corn will attract larger birds and the easier to eat
cracked
corn will attract additional smaller-sized birds and is best offered in
ground-feeders.
Containing both protein and fiber,
cracked corn is a great addition to a bird's diet.
Types
of birds attracted to Corn:
jays, pigeons, doves,
turkeys, pheasants, quail and if cracked: blackbirds, finches, sparrows
Cracked corn is also an ingredient used in
wild bird seed
mixes which most birds will eat after the preferable seed is gone. Corn is a cheap alternative for attracting pheasants, quail and doves. But if you
start getting too many blackbirds, cowbirds and/or house sparrows, you may want
to eliminate corn from your wild bird food offerings.
