Winter "Suet" balls?

[Chicken Happy]

Don't remember if it was this forum or another, but I found a recipe for making bird blocks, and kinda tweeked it.

seeds, I use
sunflower/oat/millet/mixed/ (whatever seed I can find and mix it up)
old bread crumbled
some of their crumbles
whatever else you want to add, keep in mind tho, the above doesn't spoil to fast

Mix it together, I then add molasses to bind it. I baked small loaf size blocks at 350 for about 30 minutes, I then vac sealed them
I also have baked them in cupcake tins..

When I originally started this thread I was only in the thinking and asking mode. With all the info and tips presented, I actually have to start making them!!! What did I get myself into. Good tip about molasses as a binder and baking. Should be tastier than suet. Thanks!
