Answer This Question
A:Â Some spillage is normal, excessive spillage may be occurring because large birds are landing on the feeder and tilting it.
by|Jul 5, 2022
A:Â Well, if you're filling it completely to the very top, it might be the weight is pushing it out too fast. It has not been a problem for me, although blue jays are so crazy, they tend to slosh some overboard. If it spills out of mine, I'm happy the doves can eat it, since they're ground feeders usually. What's on your ground might just be the hulls of the seed - watch them sometime eating, and you'll see that often, they grab seeds, then hull them, and the hulls fall to the ground, but that's just the shells. I have two feeders, and they eat it pretty fast - if you have one, then a week might be about right if you have lots of visitors!

A:Â I have this particular feeder and I think you have to talk to the birds about the mess. They sit on the edge and can't help it. I also have deer that nudge it with their noses.

Q:How do you open it to fill it?

Answer This Question
A: The top comes off by unscrewing the finial on top to which the hanging loop is attached. Unscrew the finial until it separates from the long rod running from bottom to top inside the feeder. Once the finial is loose simply lift the top off and the entire inside of the feeder is accessible. Fill with seed of your choice, replace the top by inserting the threaded rod through the hole in the top then retread the finial onto the rod protruding through the top. Screw the finial onto the rod so that it doesn’t unscrew by wind motion swinging the feeder or squirrels attempting to raid it.

A:Â The hook on the lid unscrews from the feeder body and the lid lifts off. To close just screw the hook back on thru the lid. Very simple and easy.
by|Sep 13, 2022
A:Â You unscrew the top unit that has the hanging loop. Then the whole top lifts off.

A:Â You unscrew the top ring then pull the top piece off. I've had mine at least 7 or 8yrs. love it!!!

A:Â Its been my experience that the feeder doesn't matter much as long as you have the correct feed. The only time it would make a difference is to fit a large bird as apposed to a small bird.

Birds love it and it’s pretty. Easy to fill.
Birds love it and it’s pretty. I hung it from a hook (the green kind from HD that are about one foot) from a tree branch. Then I extended it another foot down with a small rope, so I can see it from up on my porch beneath the oak tree branches. I tried hanging it from a Shepards hook in my garden but it was too near the white vinyl fence which the birds destroyed with their poo. The squirrels are happy to eat what drops on the ground but they don’t try to leap onto it from the branch above.

There is no perch for birds to stand on, the lip of the feeding trough doesn't have a way for the birds to grip in the front of their talons. the hundreds of birds who visit my other feeder, gave up on this one after discovering they couldn't hold on. unfortunately, I had already painted the sunshines on the sides so I couldn't return it.
To make due, I made perches with small L brackets, wooden dowels, hardware and wire. It's the most popular feeder now. I like that it holds a lot of food but I wish they had made it with perches to begin with.

Hung this on a 6 foot Sheppard’s hook in the backyard. The birds ( and squirrels) love it. Provides our cat with hours of entertainment. Well made and easy to replenish after it has been emptied out. Photo is of the first Sheppard’s hook I tried. Too easy for the squirrels. Well made.
