Nyger Seed

Extra Select Nyger Seed are a small, oil-rich seed packed with protein and energy, perfect for attracting finches, tits, and other small wild birds. Sourced from the Guizotia flower, a delicate yellow bloom native to Africa, nyger seed (also known as niger or nyjer seed) is easy to digest and provides a valuable source of essential nutrients.

To offer your garden birds a more varied and nutritious diet, nyger seed can be mixed with other wild bird feeds. Its high amino acid content makes it especially beneficial during the fledgling season, supporting healthy growth and development.

Benefits:

• Complementary wild bird feed
• Excellent source of natural protein and energy
• Easily digestible
• VAT free

Please note: Nyger seed is often mistaken for thistle seed but is entirely different. Because the seeds are so light, they can easily blow from standard feeders, so a specialist nyger seed feeder is recommended. It’s well worth it – finches and other small birds will love it.
