Originally called niger in reference to Nigeria and the plant’s origin, the name was trademarked as Nyjer in 1998 by the Wild Bird Feeding to clarify pronunciation. Many backyard birders also call the seed thistle, but in fact Nyjer is not related to thistle plants or seeds. It is believed that calling the seed thistle may have become popular because goldfinches, which adore Nyjer, also feed on thistle and use thistle down to construct their nests.About Nyjer Commercial Nyjer is grown in Africa, India and other areas of southeast Asia, and the seed is imported around the world as a popular type of birdseed. Before it is imported, however, Nyjer seed is sterilized by intense heat to prevent germination of any additional seeds that may be part of the mix. Treated Nyjer may germinate but would typically be stunted, limiting its spread and offering less of a threat to native plants. A type of oilseed, Nyjer is a popular birdseed because after sterilization it will not sprout if spilled and because it is an exceptional energy source for backyard birds. The basic nutritional components of Nyjer are:35 percent fat (25 percent minimum)18 percent protein (16 percent minimum)18 percent fiber (20 percent maximum)12 percent moisture (maximum) Because of this composition, Nyjer is especially popular as a winter bird food , when birds require foods with more oil and a higher calorie content so they can store fat to survive colder temperatures. The protein in Nyjer is also useful for regenerating feathers when birds molt in the late fall and early spring.Birds That Eat Nyger Many seed-eating bird species will happily eat nothing but Nyjer. Birds that will take Nyjer from feeders include:House and purple finchesSong sparrowsLesser an American goldfinches Pone siskins Mourning DovesBuntingsHoray and common redpollsQuailDark-eyed juncos
