How would you make a bird ball feeder with suet/beef fat/ pork fat?
I read somewhere that people would make some sort of bird feeder ball with seeds/fat. Then hang them on their tree/xmas tree for the birds. One way to decorate xmas tree.
I have never heard of using the fat to make them but another way and a more prettier and taseful way is to take a paper cup or whatever shape u plan on using and coat it in layers of honey letting each layer dry of course then after u have coats of honey going layer it with birdseed or whatever kinds of bird food u are using. Now u want to keep a spray bottle by u filled with Hot water, butter, and honey… after u have the seeds on it spray it then keep adding seeds soon u will have this big ball of seeds and if u use a cup then the out side will be nice and coated while the inside nice and clean… lay it on a cookie sheet and bak it on 250 to 300 degrees for and 15 mins but keep an eye on it when its done let it cool then tie a bow threw the center of the cup and it will look very pretty and be so tasty to any bird eating it:)… u can also us peanut butter and u can also use foil instead of the paper cup this way u can shape the foil to any shape u want such as a star or heart or christmas tree for that matter
Have fun and good luck its a messy but fun project!
