Hello Wood Thrush Friends
Unfortunately, we will be out of Live Mealworms for perhaps a week, and hopefully not longer. Our supplier has very limited stock at this time and has suspended shipping until their stock has a chance to catch up to demand.
One week can make a big difference as mealworms grow relatively quickly. We will post updates as we get them from the supplier. We sincerely hope to have mealworms back in stock by middle to end of next week.
Until then we are ordering extra quantities of dried mealworms and Bluebird nuggets. Remember, Bluebirds will consider other food choices in cold weather. Try dried fruit like raisins and cranberries, suet chopped into smaller pieces, shelled sunflower, and even scrambled eggs in small pieces. I see Bluebirds every day at my suet feeder.
A number of customers have seen Bluebirds at feeders with Woodland Blend and Premium Blend. Both of these blends contain shelled sunflower and peanut pieces. Try different things and see what they will accept. Let us know what you experience.
