Product Details
Johnston & Jeff Monkey Nuts — Peanuts in Their Shells for Birds & Parrots
Monkey nuts are simply peanuts that are still in their shells — and that's exactly what makes them so brilliant. Birds have to work to get into the shell before they reach the reward inside, keeping them busy and providing a genuine mental workout. Watching birds tackle monkey nuts is also a charming spectacle in its own right, and can provide hours of garden entertainment.
Monkey nuts aren't just loved by parrots — wild birds are equally keen on them. The tit family in particular are enthusiastic monkey nut fans, and will often choose to tackle the shell rather than go for an easier kernel option. Johnston & Jeff's Monkey Nuts are sampled and tested for aflatoxin before entering production, so you can feed with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
What birds eat monkey nuts?
Monkey nuts are popular with a wide range of birds. In the garden, the tit family — including Blue Tits, Great Tits and Coal Tits — are particularly keen. Nuthatches, Jays and Woodpeckers will also tackle them. For pet birds, parrots of all sizes enjoy the challenge of removing the shell.
Are monkey nuts safe for wild birds?
Yes — Johnston & Jeff's Monkey Nuts are aflatoxin tested before entering production. Aflatoxin is a naturally occurring mould toxin that can be harmful to birds, so testing is an important quality assurance step. Always buy from a reputable supplier to ensure safety.
What is aflatoxin and why does it matter?
Aflatoxin is a toxic compound produced by certain moulds that can grow on peanuts and other nuts. It can be harmful or fatal to birds even in small quantities. Johnston & Jeff test their monkey nuts for aflatoxin before production, giving you confidence that what you're feeding is safe.
Can I put monkey nuts in a feeder?
Monkey nuts in their shells are best offered loose on a bird table or ground feeder, or threaded onto a string feeder. They're too large for standard peanut feeders, which are designed for shelled peanuts. Offering them loose gives birds the full foraging experience.
How should I store monkey nuts?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Once opened, keep in an airtight container and use within a reasonable time to maintain freshness and prevent mould.
