Our Wagner’s Cracked Corn is enjoyed by a variety of ground feeding birds such as Blue Jays, Cardinals, Doves, Juncos, Quail, Pheasants, Ducks and Grouse. Rabbits, chipmunks and other playful wildlife will be attracted as well. It can be fed on its own or mixed with other seed. Many people feed cracked corn separately from their regular bird feeding area so that playful squirrels and other small animals have their own place to eat – diverting them from eating at your bird feeders. Sprinkle some on the ground where it is easily accessible by both birds and animals. Use Wagner’s Cracked Corn and enjoy that “close to nature” feeling that comes with feeding your own backyard wildlife. Trust your backyard birds to the experts at Wagner’s.

Good bird feed.
Birds love it.
Rick Kohler –
Great Product
It really helped with the cost of bird seed to blend this 50/50 with finch lovers blend. But I did have to blend it into a finer size since the large pieces were not being eaten.
Paul A Vetrone –
Excellent product
10 pound bags are easy to deal with especially Seniors. Cracked corn looks clean with very little dust. We get lots of English Sparrows, European Starlings, crows, Magpies during winter. Lots of migratory birds in the spring. Recommended product

Finally, a Review From a Mallard Duck
I see a lot of human reviews here, but I think what matters is a review from who’s actually eating this stuff. So hello.I really enjoy this cracked corn. Sure, it can be dry, and I have to get a sip of pond water after a few bites, but the taste is great. There is nothing like eating corn with 40 of my friends on a cold winter day, just make sure to put it in a line (not a big pile) so we don’t all fight over it, okay? Plus, cracked corn is a lot better for us than bread.If anyone has wine pairing suggestions please let me know.

Great quality, easy on the wallet
I have a bird garden, and feed other wild life which likes to visit – squirrels, skunks, ground hog (even though he is in hybernation at the moment), raccons etcThis is a great affordable food to add into other food, such as sunflower seed and peanuts to stretch your budget.This is an item I will be purchasing from here on forward.

Oddly popular with blue jays and woodpeckers
I’m feeding birds at a Brooklyn apartment window birdfeeder with humans clearly visible, and there are a good many bird feeders in this area (you’d be surprised at the variety of birds that call Brooklyn home) so it’s a bit of a game to find what attracts birds the most. Mess free was always a requirement.Peanuts are a sure win, though since I have a nut-allergic friend coming over regularly that’s literally off the table. They are the most popular, and if that’s an option for your birds, go for it. The only downside there is sometimes it looks like the birds, especially the doves, might choke on it.For morning doves, sunflower hearts and this cracked corn are tied for second. As I type one dove it sitting on the windowsill eating the hearts and the other is eating this. Doves are city birds. They don’t care. A human wants to watch? That’s fine. There’s food. They’re fast and they know it. They just eat. Some of the doves, having had thistle seed, will settle for nothing else. Yep, we’ve taught a flock of scavenger birds to be finicky.The bag say titmice won’t eat this. The titmice did not read the bag. They love it. It is tied with sunflower hearts, but for them I suspect it’s based on comfort level with humans. The ones who just snatch a seed and fly away prefer the more portable sunflower hearts. The ones who feel confident enough to stay a few minutes and eat prefer these. If your feeder is in a place birds feel less threatened, I think this will be a top winner. That means I like this best for them, because I get to see them longer.For blue jays, this is more popular than the sunflower hearts. Again, there is the nervous nature of these birds. I’m more likely to catch them eating when I first come into the kitchen, before they see me. Sometimes they hang out and eat, and that’s awesome. They’re beautiful, and I hope this tempts them to hang out more. I’m definitely getting more visits from them since I started putting this out.For woodpeckers this is beaks down a winner, even over peanuts. They love this stuff. I’ve had more of them visit since putting this out than ever before.It’s trial and error to find what the local birds like, what tempts them, and I’ll probably keep experimenting but I’ll be stocking this for my feeder. It’s a hit.The bag is very sturdy, opens easily, and sadly doesn’t reseal. I don’t know why that isn’t a more common feature in bird food bags. Seems a needed and obvious one to me.

Ducks love this
The wild ducks that visit us love this feed. It also attracts other small birds. I have to chase them away. I bought this for the ducks, no one else.

Birds love this cracked corn. My young son made a ground feeder and we puts some in there. So many birds came – sparrows, mourning doves, blackbirds, cardinals – it even attracted mallard ducks to my yard.
Dave –
I use it to feed geese and they love it, once the geese are done feeding the pigeons and sometimes seagulls will join the party.
Rosslyn Perry –
The big birds in my yard love this at their ground feeder. I am very pleased with this product.

Bought this for the ducks at the cottage. Ate it up like crazy. Kind of expensive for such a small bag tho. Otherwise it was good.
