Birds help keep our ecosystem healthy, so help keep birds healthy too with the More Birds® Bird
Health+™ collection. Bird Health+™ products are made of bird-safe, BPA-free materials and recyclable
parts. The More Birds® Bird Health+™ Garnet Hummingbird Feeder features soft ports and an
integrated perch design that optimize the feeding angle and comfort for all species of hummingbirds. Hummingbirds
easily feed from the 5 bee guard ports, but bees and wasps are stopped right in their tracks. The Garnet features
a glass nectar bottle and a colorful red top and base. The wide bottle opening and detachable flat base make
filling easy and cleaning a breeze. The built-in ant moat stops ants right in their tracks, keeping
precious nectar fresh for hungry hummingbirds. With a 20 oz. nectar capacity, the Garnet provides plenty of nectar
to keep hummingbirds happy and coming back for more! For best results, use More
Birds® Bird Health+™ nectar, which simulates natural nectar found in flowers.
Cleaning: Dirty feeders spread disease. We recommend disinfecting your nectar feeders every
three to five days, or more frequently if you notice your nectar has become cloudy. Do not put your feeder in the
dishwasher as the high temperatures can permanently damage the feeder parts. Soak all parts in a 50/50 solution of
white vinegar and water. Use a bird feeder brush to brush away grime inside the feeder.
Waste of money. Feeder does not feed nectar out of the glass reservoir as air cannot get in to replace nectar as it is depleted from feeding tray on the bottom. Easy to clean but hummingbirds quickly deplete nectar lever beneath the "flowers" until is no longer accessible and do not return to the feeder.
Thank you for this feedback. We're sorry to hear that this is happening with the feeder. If the nectar is not dropping down, it may be air-locked. We recommend slightly loosening the base and bottle.

Great easy-to-clean feeder, but the removable plastic white flowers and purple rubber centers tend to fail, and it doesn't appear that replacement parts are available.
I have purchased several of these feeders over the years. We used them for summer and fall to feed our popular of hummingbirds since the hold a good amount of nectar. For spring ,we use the big gulp feeders as we feed hundreds of birds during migration. They are super easy to clean and maintain, which is extremely important for anyone who wants to feed hummingbirds. Our birds seem to prefer these feeders over other brands.
I have several of your "More Birds" plastic, ruby-red hummingbird feeders but I'm finding in the newer ones that the liquid pours out from where the red piece, that holds the flowers, attaches to the clear tray. So clearly there is not a tight fit.
In the past I used to buy the copper metal feeders until one really, cold day, I noticed that a hummingbird landed on the perch and when it tried to fly away, for a brief moment, its feet stuck to the perch. I temporarily solved the problem by applying a very thin film of Vaseline around the entire perch. I was hoping this did not hurt the hummingbird but in the same sense I did not want its little feet sticking to the feeder. I no longer buy this type of feeder and have been only buying the plastic ruby-colored feeders.
But, bottom line I will continue to buy these feeders!
The feeders and parts i ordered were perfect and my backyard birds love them. Service was fantastic from More Birds, I had help from customer service which was great and shipping, packing and delivery was perfect. Great products and great company, Thank You.
The quality of the feeders was great. The way the feeders are built make them easy to fill and to keep clean. Definitely enjoyed by the local flying gems.
I routinely buy approximately 100 pounds of sugar a year for my birds, this feeder is the easiest to clean comes with its own ant cup and provides the correct angle for the birds to sit in feed with ease at peace. Every afternoon every port is filled with a sweet little ruby throated hummingbird they are a true joy .
We get alot of hummingbirds here and it's difficult to keep the feeders full. This feeder holds alot of juice. The feeder tubes are soft and flexible and it's easy to clean and assemble. I would highly recommend.
This gem is perfect! No metal, soft parts for gentle bird tongues. Easy to clean with glass receptacle and plastic parts. Not rust or metal contamination! Hummingbirds like the multiple perches. Generous nectar capacity.
Would got to 5 stars if the 2 openings for the liquid base were higher, but they are too low. Therefore there is too big of a gap between the insert to the liquid, very hard for hummingbirds to reach the liquid. Folks are drilling 1/4" above the current opening to allow the water level to be higher. Others are tilting the feeder daily to get the water higher. Please modify the 2 opening so they are 1/4" higher. This info is posted on Amazon with pictures. Great feeder otherwise. Can this be corrected? I would like to order another base with the larger openings. Maybe you can send me another base, I will try drill holes. Once correct, I would be glad to update this to 5 stars.
