Safflower seeds come from a thistle-like plant. It is an oilseed crop and has a hard, white outer husk. It is high in protein, but becasue it does have such a hard outer husk, many garden birds are not able to crack it open. Finches would be the one species that can deal with hard safflower husks. Safflower does have quite a bitter taste and squirrels find it unpleasant - so it may be worth adding a small handful to your bird seed if you are having trouble with squirrels eating your bird food.
The safflower plant (Carthamus tinctorius L.) is grown for the production of oil for cosmetics and cooking, for cattle and poultry meals, and for use as bird food. Our high-quality safflower seeds are available in quantities ranging from 4kg to 60kg.
