Walter Harrison’s launches value pack of fat balls



Walter Harrison’s, one of the UK’s leading suppliers of wild bird foods and accessories, has launched a value pack of Energy Boost No Net Fat Balls.

With a recommended retail price of £9.99 the box of 50 fat balls offers both consumers and retailers excellent value for money and is ideal as a refill pack for those people who have previously purchased tubs.

Supplied in a sturdy box with carry handle Walter Harrison’s 50 Fat Balls Value Pack is easy to merchandise and creates an impactful display.

Traditionally Fat Balls have been supplied in a plastic net from which they can be hung from a tree or bird table. If the net isn’t securely fastened it may litter the garden or surrounding area when empty. Not having nets not only means no litter but the additional benefit of being completely safe to use without the risk of trapping birds’ beaks and feet.

Made from high quality suet and packed with a selection of seeds including millet and black sunflower Walter Harrisons Fat Balls are a high energy food suitable for most varieties of garden bird and particularly attractive to great tits, blue tits, long tailed tits and coal tits.

Fat balls provide an important source of nutrition throughout the year, particularly during the nesting season and the colder months when birds need to maintain their fat levels. As well as feeding from a fat ball feeder no net fat balls can be fed on the ground, on a bird table or crumbled and added to other food.
