Chubby Peanuts in Shells, also known as monkey nuts, are a natural, high-energy food for squirrels and other garden wildlife. They are packed with natural oils, and squirrels love the challenge of cracking the shells open, which makes them great fun to watch.

The shell keeps the peanut inside fresher for longer and encourages natural foraging. You can hide them around the garden, put them out on a squirrel picnic table, or take a handful with you to feed squirrels in the park or woods.

Feeding Through the Year
