“The construction is very good and robust. The birds seem reluctant to use it but I experienced similar with another enclosed feeder so I think they just need to get used to the new design.”
“Well made, will last. Needs a little extra wire to hold lid - but once in place - a quality feeder that protects from squirrels. Excellent speedy service from Vine House Farm and their delivery partner DHL. The seed mixes available from Vine House Farm for this feeder are very popular with garden birds.”
“Narrow so my jam funnel does not fit which I have used in all my feeders to load the seed.
The lid doesnt fit securely so the squirrels were just taking it off.
The hanging mechanism is odd
And so far the birds don't like using it!
Not my best buy :(”
Thank you for your review, sorry to hear you've had a difficult time with this feeder. We will pass your comments on to the manufacturer so they are aware.
“Rooks and Jackdaws were eating the bird seed from my hanging feeders. They have not been able to get food from the caged feeder leaving more for the tits and finches so it does what it says - so much that I have purchased a second feeder.”
“The seed holder is too narrow and the seed hearts I use jam up in the feeder so the supply to the birds fail. This is because the tube is too narrow.
The hanger is also too complicated making hanging it difficult. It should have a single hoop as in other feeders.
It also is too small to contain sufficient”
