I've looked in Migros, coop, and a couple of pet shops, but they only seem to have bags of mixed seeds.
Ideally I'm after a 5kg (or more) bag, unshelled.

birds eat peanuts??? sure it isn't mixed seed your after???

Yup, peanuts. They're very picky

If you need hints on what to provide ... http://www.rspb.org.uk/advice/helpin...food/index.asp

I thought there was a law against feeding wild birds in Switzerland.

I saw some unshelled nuts in Migros a couple of days ago. Obviously imported, at the time I remember thinking how expensive they were.I am going to state the obvious, but have you looked in a pet shop?

You're definitely not supposed to feed the swans and ducks on Lake Zurich. They were being fed far too much by "well-meaning" folk. The surplus bread rots and makes them ill

Have you looked in Landi?

Nope! What / where is Landi ?

Landi are part of the Volg chain of shops. They tend to be located out in the sticks and sell lots of pet & outdoor stuff.

There home page can be found here.

Landi is my favourite shop in Switzerland (how sad is that!)

Not just pet, farm and gardening stuff (all very cheap), they have tools, wine, working clothes etc. They even sell toys. Although only tractors and combines

They don't keep everything in stock but they do have a massive catalogue and will order specials for you. They even deliver.

BTW I have no financial connection with the company.

Tools AND wine (and hopefully peanuts...)

I'm there!
