Last year we went through more than 8lbs of grape jelly ( we make sure it is real sugar no hi fructose corn syrup.) 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 13,005 #6 Posted May 2 Grape jelly and an orange. They do go through a lot. I stop feeding them about mid summer so the young ones will get more protein rich goodies and be better prepared for migration. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
