JCS Wildlife Golden Safflower Premium Seed Cylinder
Upgrade your backyard feeding station with the JCS Wildlife Golden Safflower Premium Seed Cylinder. Made with 100% premium NutraSaff—a high-nutrient hybrid safflower seed—this compressed cylinder offers more protein, fat, and oil than traditional white safflower, giving wild birds a high-energy food source they can enjoy year-round.
NutraSaff also features a naturally bitter taste that helps discourage common backyard pests, including squirrels, grackles, and starlings. The result is a convenient way to provide desirable songbirds with quality food while helping reduce unwanted activity around your feeding station.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Golden Safflower (NutraSaff) and traditional white safflower?
Golden safflower is a natural hybrid developed specifically for bird feeding. Its golden hull is approximately 40% thinner than traditional white safflower, making it easier for birds to crack open. It also provides higher levels of protein, oil, and fat than standard safflower.
Does safflower bird seed really help deter squirrels and blackbirds?
The naturally bitter taste of safflower is generally less appealing to squirrels, starlings, and grackles, which can help discourage them from feeding. During periods of extreme winter weather or limited food availability, however, unwanted visitors may still occasionally eat it.
Will this golden safflower cylinder leave a mess under my feeder?
NutraSaff's thinner, softer hull makes the seed easier for birds to consume. Some shell debris may still fall beneath the feeder, but the thinner hull can help reduce the amount of leftover material compared with traditional safflower.
How long does a bird seed cylinder last compared with loose seed?
Compressed cylinders can last longer than loose seed because birds peck at the compacted food rather than scattering it while feeding. This helps slow consumption and reduce waste around your feeding station.

These are always a hit with my finches. They often have one eaten in less than 2 weeks! I buy them in bulk. This cylinder is more popular than any other seed I put out for my birds.

Repeat customer - mid-summer for my area in FL, larger cylinders last about 12-14 days.

I love this seed because there's no mess under the feeder. I just put the seed cylinder on, and my birds are happy.

I'm hoping this hulless safflower seed will not bloom under my feeder. I now have a mess of weeds from the hulled safflower seed I'm currently using.

The cylinder arrived intact and did not fall apart in the feeder like some do. The birds definitely prefer this over the white safflower seed and allows us to offer a variety of options to the local birds. I'd love to see cardinals eating from it, but they're the one bird that consistently snubs all of our seed cylinders in favor of loose seed.

I have been ordering this product regularly for at least a year now & it's awesome! My finches love it. It's the only seed option which makes it nearly impossible for bully birds to eat it. Even the sparrows can't feed from it. Extra bonus: whatever falls to the ground is quickly eaten up by the wild quail that frequent my yard.

I have a subscription of Golden Safflower Premium Bird Seed and the birds go through a cylinder in five days and that is all small birds, the big black birds don't eat it. I get six cylinders every six weeks. I also feed them loose feed. My order comes every 6 weeks like clock work

Birds prefer this one over the regular white safflower seeds. It attracts all the backyard birds but not Starlings. Will repurchase them.
