Attract every backyard finch variety with the More Birds® Topsy Tails Finch Feeder. Featuring seed ports above
& below each perch, goldfinches can feed upside down while other finches feed right-side up! A built-in metal seed baffle
keeps seed levels from going below the bottom seed ports, and the clear plastic seed tube holds 1.5 lb of
thistle (Nyjer®) & finch mixes to keep hungry finches happy and coming back for more. The feeder is easy to fill and clean by simply sliding
the cap up the pre-attached metal hanging wire. With durable metal construction and vibrant yellow powder-coating
to attract more finches, the Topsy Tails is fabulous for finch feeding!
Cleaning: Dirty bird feeders spread disease. We recommend cleaning your feeders weekly, or
monthly at a minimum. Do not put your feeder in the dishwasher as the high temperatures can permanently damage the
feeder parts. Clean your feeders outdoors with a large bucket, and always wear gloves when cleaning. Soak your
feeder in a 9:1 solution of water and bleach for 15 minutes. Then use a bird feeder brush to scrub the feeder with
dish soap and water. Refill when completely dry.
My birds loved this feeder. However. The tube became brittle from the sun. Cleaning it without removing the perches is very difficult and seems to aggravate the cracking. I would love to replace the tube, but no luck so far finding one.
This is a perfect feeder for finches! Within minutes after hanging this tube feeder, I had finches feasting on the finch and thistle seed in the tube! So much fun to watch them and a big bonus is that I have been seeing many more finches in my yard!

The Yellow Topsy Tails Finch Tube is lightweight and will fill the needs of many that want to attract finches to their backyards. Squirrels hound my birdfeeders, but ignore this one since they aren't attracted to thistle seed. Within minutes after placing, the feeder was occupied by goldfinches and even two common redpoll. My only concern is with cleaning the feeder; the bottom is designed for removal, but appears far more complicated than any other feeder I have seen.
This Feeder is very popular with the finches in our yard. Perhaps the yellow attracts them but there is finch traffic throughout the day with the occasional chickadee dropping by to take some seed as well. This is a sturdy feeder and should last many years.
This is a very nice feeder. Sturdy and easy to fill. We've tried both Nyjer and finch mix. Larger capacity than some, so we don't have to go out as often in the snow. So far, we've had a few Common Redpolls and two House Sparrows. No "topsy" Goldfinches or House Finches, as yet. The bottom is a bit hard to remove for cleaning, but the rest of the feeder is easy to do. Our birdies are happy, we are too!
Colorful feeder that appears to be well made. I’ve been using it for a few weeks now. I rarely see goldfinches but I did see a couple on it right after I put it out! The other finches seem to prefer my other bird feeders—I have at least three others out with black oil sunflower and peanuts. I started out using nyjer and added a finch mix in this feeder. I received this feeder as part of a promotion. I have a Droll Yankee ring pull thistle feeder which I took down to use this one. I had very few birds visit it. I have loads of squirrels that destroy the thistle sock feeders. They can’t get in this feeder! Bottom line, it’s a great feeder but you’ll probably get the most activity on it if you have goldfinches! The bright yellow color is a plus for me!
The finches loved it for the first 24 hours then, unfortunately ,the squirrels got to it and chewed huge holes in the plastic to get at the seeds. It is no longer serviceable. I would suggest either metal grommets in the small holes or a different housing. The feeder will not survive where there are those pesky animals.
