Heath Outdoor Products 407 Birdie's Diner Small Mixed Seed Feeder Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have small bird out front that are fun to watch. When I saw this feeder I thought just what in need for my small tree and birds. However it is a disappointment in that the bird try but are unable to get to the seeds. I have looked for ways to make it better but being made of glass and metal could not find away. I am going to look for a feeder at local hardware stores.

Marina Nutrafin Nutramatic 2X Fish Food Feeder Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this product the day before going on vacation, so i didn't have much time to research. I've owned it for 28 days, and it's been working fine so far. I use small pellets, not flakes- so that's all i can rate it for. It seems to work at the same times every day, and a uniform amount of food appears to drop. It is not quiet, so if it is used in a bedroom, make sure you adjust your feeding times as not to be disturbed while sleeping. I acually don't mind knowing when it's running, so if i'm around I can check on it's function. Time will tell if it's a great product- but so far, so good.
I must change my review- I too had one of the battery contacts break off, and the unit became unreliable. I'd often have to remove and replace the batteries to get it to work again. I'd look elsewhere before buying another.

Heritage Farms Corn Trapper Squirrel Feeder Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I had this type of feeder, and a squirrel got its hand stuck in the bottom of the spiral. The squirrel had to rip its hand off to free itself. I saw it struggle to free itself for at least ten minutes. Its hand was still stuck in the feeder after it got away. Please do not purchase this type of feeder.

Droll Yankees Yankee Whipper Squirrel-Proof Bird Feeder, Model# YCPD90 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great feeder. I had it up for 3 weeks, no squirrels. Plenty of Cardinals, chickadees, nuthatches, etc. However, today I saw a squirrel clinging to the holes and sides of the feeder.
The feeder is suspended buy very thin 30 lb. monofilament fishing line from a very high branch; feeder is about 7 feet from ground. Would be difficult for a squirrel to slide down the fishing line - but possible, I suppose.
Edit - now I know he leaped up from the nearby giant Rhododendron. I moved the Whipper away from the Rhody - but too close to the trunk of the tree - about 5 feet. Witnessed many squirrels leaping from trunk of tree onto Whipper. They grab onto the birdseed holes.
I moved the Whipper - now it is at least 6 feet off the ground, but over the lawn - will need to move it again.
I liked having the feeder over the Rhody - empty sunflower shells fall onto the ground under the Rhody, out of sight. Rhody gives the birds plenty of cover - they perch in the Rhody before darting over to the feeder, then dart back. A good thing as I saw a hawk peering down yesterday from a tree in the next yard.

Kaytee Products Inc. 4Sock Finch Feedstation 100501088 Bird Feeder Specialty Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this on a whim, and I assumed that the picture on the box, showing clusters of goldfinches, was an exaggeration. It isn't. It's an understatement. Right now there are more than a dozen goldfinches scrambling around on my feeder. At times there are probably two dozen. If you have finches in the area, they will find the feeder. But I am a victim of my own success. The socks that come with this feeder spill out enormous quantities of seed. Not only is it expensive, it also makes a real mess on our deck, which I have to clean up constantly. As a result, I'm going to get a tube finch feeder and try it instead. I will miss seeing the crowds of finches clustering literally side by side, but the mess is just too much.
I wanted a feeder right outside my kitchen window. If you can put this feeder somewhere where you don't care about large amounts of spilled seed, and you can afford the seed, then you will love this feeder.
One minor quibble, you will see that a plastic dome attaches to a green ring, and the green ring attaches to the main body of the feeder. Both of these parts come loose far too easily when you fill the feeder, which can mean you spill huge amounts of seed. The trick, I have found, is to hang the feeder from a very low hook when filling it, so that the top of the feeder is about chest level. Then you can fill it easily, without the thing coming apart, and then put it back on its normal hook. I got a big S-shaped thing, from which you can hang other things. At filling time, I take the feeder down, put up the S-hook, then hang the feeder from the S-hook.

Heath Outdoor Products Filled Thistle Sock Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was unable to find a product like this in my area, so I was very pleased to find this on Amazon (with Prime Membership free shipping!) It didn't last as long as I'd hoped as small sparrows seemed to like the thistle as much as the few finches that came. The sock is reusable, however, and I found I can buy thistle in bulk at my local pet store.

Solar Crackle Ball Bird Feeder Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is the third solar crackle ball bird feeder that I have purchased - the other 2 were purchased a couple of years ago and the style has changed slightly. Instead of 4 small exposed lights in the top, the lights are enclosed in tubes that run down each corner. I think that this change will protect the lights. One of the older models has had a light damaged by the birds or squirrels. These feeders hold up very well and the older feeders stay lit for a long time each evening. I have never had to recharge or change the batteries.

Perky-Pet 216 Clear Plastic 16-Ounce Hummingbird Feeder, 3 Feeding Ports Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I wanted to wait a while before giving a review. This Hummingbird feeder works well and several males fight over whose gets to use it (females of course having free reign). It doesn't refill as well as I would like - but none of them do. It also drips on its own when the ambient temperature rises, but that means the holes aren't clogged up like I've seen with other feeders.
I wish it had perches - and apparently, so do some of the birds. I made some and glued them on. The birds seem to appreciate this, as I put on two (there are four feeding areas) and those are the ones the females use. I guess not having to expend energy while replenishing it works better. The males prefer the openings without the perches so they can be ready to chase off other males I presume.
I also have chickadees and orioles who visit on occasion, and seem to appreciate the perches.

Kaytee #100501109 4CT Replacement Finch Sock Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I own this product and finches love it however it is too porous. Much of the precious nyjer is wasted on the ground beneath. For a fraction of the price I bought a THISTLE SAK FEEDER by Gardner/Homestead and remedied the situation. The mesh is finer yet sturdy. I am now visited by dozens of finches without mounds of wasted uneaten seeds. Give it a try, you'll more than make up the cost in no time!

Scotts Songbird Selections Wild Finch and Small Songbird Seed Blend Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We live in the Mid-Atlantic and I guess we're bird-people because even our squirrels are glossy and fat, and we've got birds that come back year after year, bringing their babies.
I usually buy just straight Thistle seed for the Siskins and Gold Finches. This year I'm trying two sock feeders along with our usual 4-perch 'house' feeder because there has been such a traffic jam. And as an experiment, I bought the Scott's "Wild Finch & Small Songbird Blend". It was a whim, but I was interested in the 2X claim, as well as whether our birds would like the red millet.
Well, the short of it is that they don't particularly care for it. Certainly we haven't seen any increase in Finch traffic, in fact it's died off a bit... but I'm not going to lay the blame for that at Scott's feet. With birds you just never know. But in the socks all of the thistle is gone and what remains is red.
THE SKINNY:::
I was concerned that the red millet might not fit through the slim feeder-slots on our house-style thistle feeder, but apparently it does.
The Pine Siskins seem to like the millet better than the Gold Finches.
As for the Red Millet, I did a bit of research and found out that it is frequently used as 'filler' and doesn't have a magic effect as one might conclude from the claims on the package.
I'm not planning on buying more except for the sock-feeders. It is just so convenient to have the spout on the Scott bag that I think it's worth the price.
Note: if you haven't been feeding birds for a long time, you might not know that local populations can have their own preferences. So it makes sense to experiment and try a bag of this-or-that to see what your local birds prefer.
