Fine ... as long as it doesn't rain2

Hi folks. I don't have spare time to review every product I buy here with over 250 orders in the last year. However I do feel obligated to mention or warn others when a product fails under normal ordinary conditions.



This bird feeder looks very nice it holds plenty of bird seed and I have no problems with the funky lid or filling the feeder. (I don't like the flimsy plastic glass)



I wondered "WHY are the birds completely ignoring this feeder when I clearly see it's still half full of seed? They used to like it. What's the deal?" Hummm.



I quickly discovered the problem. What happens is; every time it rains the bottom area (tray) gets filled with water and saturates the seed turning it into a thick muddy paste. At this point the birds have no interest. After examining the feeder I noticed the "tray" has little tiny drain holes - not quite the size of lead in a pencil. These drain holes are obviously insufficient. I doubt I can drill the plastic holes larger without breaking the tray.



In summary I find it surprising that no other reviewers mentioned this problem. Ultimately my recommendation is to only buy this feeder if you hang it in a dry area such as in a pavilion under an eave or a similar location. For me it's time to go bird feeder shopping once more.

Avant Garden 8110-3 Looking Glass Hummingbird Feeder


Great feeder4

I am ordering my second feeder today. I've been using the same one for 3 years now year round because we have hummers all year long in Phoenix. It is still in perfect condition. I like this one because the parts are mostly metal and the sun is brutal here on anything plastic. The only problem I've had with it is aligning the bottom correctly so the nectar doesn't leak out. I've mastered it now so it's not a problem. To avoid breaking the neck off of the jar I soak the unit in warm water for a few minutes before unscrewing. I'm also very careful not to over tighten. I fill it only half way as the birds don't like the food if it's over a few days old especially in warm weather. Here is a trick for cleaning your feeder. Put about 3 Tbls. of white vinegar mixed with two cups of water in the feeder. Add about 1/2 cup of white uncooked rice. (I use a funnel) and shake. The friction from the rice will clean even the dark mold off of the inside. Rinse well before filling.More detail ...
