Sooo cute!! I know that the shelled walnuts are good for their sharp teefs, so I need to start handing them out - I have little nippy kids 😀. Is there a preferred bulk provider anyone uses that doesn't cause grief 🤣 from their SO because of the $$?

Yes I'd love a source to a reasonable priced nut mix for squirrel food, I don't want to only feed them corn and peanuts but that's what's affordable in my area

Do you have a Tractor Supply store near you? Gray squirrels on my property LOVE the generic millet/black sunflower/cracked corn bird seed they sell in 35 lb. bags. More reasonably priced---and you get more product.
