Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Washed it, put whole peanuts in it and hung it in my yard, which is a very successful habitat for both small and large birds. Took about 4-5 days for blue scrub jays and tit mice to get interested in the feeder. Sort of works painfully. The jays, who are problem solvers have now given up on the feeder.
Here are the reasons:
The spiral ladder on the feeder is too narrowand uncomfortable for their feet to hang onto.A platform landing became absolutely essential for the jays. Abase screwed under it, made it swing and turn madly interfering with getting to the peanuts. The holes of the feeder are too small for whole peanuts and too big for unshelled nuts which fall out. The jays will work on the feeder briefly only if there isn't any food around provided halved peanuts in shells are in it.
Titmice and wrens do go up and down the spiral but can only get at peanuts placed facing holes in halved shells. Once a nut is removed from it's shell, the shell blocks the hole. The flickers wouldn't go near it.
Feeder required constant monitoring. Difficult to clean. Had to buy base for it. Don't know why it was painted a bright yellow. Tired of it. Birds loving 'the spiral stairway' is rubbish. But will give the design another shot. Have ordered one with much smaller holes. Will place mashed peanuts in it for the wrens and smaller birds. We'll see if that works.
