that's because millet is the main ingredient in those
cheap mixes....
Cardinals mainly want SAFFLOWER "the white ones"
which is absent from those mixes
so i don't /won't buy them ....plus the seed doesn't need shelling like sun-flower seed does...
so the sparrows just gobble it up
what was the price of suet at bass pro shops $1.99
each ? or similar ?
Christmas tree had them 3 squares for 2 bucks last time i looked
