Helpfulness
short perches
Jun 28, 2024
Bought this in a discount store. My birds were having a tough time with the short perches. I took a hard plastic drinking straw and cut it into 2” pieces and gorilla glued fit over the perches and it seems better. Tried to find longer replacement perches but didn’t. Now I know why it was in a discount store.
These feeders are great.

These feeders are great. Bought one brought so many finches they were fighting so I bought another. Easy to clean, best feeder I have had.
How to extend the perches on a Ring Pull feeder
Oct 2, 2022
I recently replaced my old classic A series feeder with a ring-pull feeder.
I was concerned about the comments that the perch rods were too short. On my old feeder, I cantilevered the perches so they would stick out more on one side, creating a longer perch for the cardinals. On the new feeder, the perches cannot be moved, so I used 1/4 inch PEX plastic pipe (PEX pipe 1/4 in x 5 ft PEX-b tubing) to extend the perches, using a 4 to 5 inch piece of tube on each one.
The plastic tube slips right over the metal rod. If there is writing stamped on the plastic, you can clean it off with nail polish remover.
The cardinals can sit on the end of the perch and easily reach the seeds without contortion.

I love it, the birds love it: maybe they love it too much, they empty it in an hour or two!

The bird feeder is ingeniously designed for both people and birds! Super easy to fill and clean, and the birds love it. All those pictures you see on the site with birds all over the feeder - that's exactly what happened with ours. Wonderful!
great for black sunflower seeds

birds eat quite rapidly from this feeder. I'm disappointed that the cardinals and blue birds aren't finding it to their liking. I did have a separate Droll Yankee Tray that I attached to the bottom but that just encouraged the starlings and grackles to eat the meal worms I placed in the middle. So I took off tray and took out worms, now they're gone. Other than that, it fits the bill. But still wish the cardinals and blues would use it. Also wish I could place a separate cage over the feeder to keep out larger birds. However, a well made feeder.
I’ve had a B series model for 10+ years.

Wonderful feeder. I have not purchased a feeder in years for myself because mine is still working very well. I have purchased numerous feeders as gifts for friends though. A durable gift, well worth its $$! Walmart and Lowe’s generic feeders have broken on me many times. Never has a droll failed me.

Arrived in great condition. Easy to work with. Sturdy! I had searched our local stores and couldn't find affordable quality like this anywhere. Love it.
