Household Items that can be used to pour suet in:

We use the "Jell-O Egg Jigglers" mold for some fun. These molds are given away at grocery stores during the Easter Holidays. For a picture of the molds and/or ordering information, visit Kraft Foods

1. Make suet using any one of the suet recipes listed below.
2. Cut twine or heavy string into 12" lengths (optional). (see Note 2 below)
3. Using a paper towel dipped in vegetable oil, lightly wipe inside of both sides of the mold and along the rims.
4. Close the mold, matching up the rims of the egg halves until you hear the firm snap.
5. Insert the string in the top hole (optional) and pour the suet mixture through a funnel.
6. Refrigerate or freeze.
7. To pry open the Jell-O Egg Jigglers Mold, open the mold using a dull flat knife (butter knife) between each egg. Do not open mold by pulling the handles apart. Shake gently to unmold eggs.

Note:

1. If you don't want to use the twine/heavy string, just pour suet in molds. Place eggs in a nylon mesh onion bag and hang anywhere in your backyard!
2. If the twine will be used, you can tie the eggs together and hang from a tree branch. The twine should not be more than 12" in length. If you want to tie the eggs around a tree trunk, use longer lengths of twine.

Suet Feeders:

There are a variety of suet feeders that can be purchased or made. The popular commercially available suet feeder is a wire cage that holds one cake of suet. Some bird feeders have a hopper for seeds and suet cages on the sides of the hopper.
