Bring bold color and convenient design to your backyard bird-feeding routine with the Perky-Pet® Pinch-Waist Red Glass Hummingbird Feeder. Offering the classic silhouette you know and love, this 8 oz feeder now features a bright red bottle, cap, and base to capture the attention of hummers from near and far. The wide-mouth bottle, simple disassembly, and insect defenses all combine to make this our most convenient feeder for birders of any experience level. Find the best seat in your house now, because hummingbirds are sure to be on their way!
Translucent Red, Wide-Mouth Bottle for Easy Filling
Filling your feeder doesnโt have to be messy and frustrating. Thatโs why weโve designed the Perky-Petยฎ Pinch-Waist Red Glass Hummingbird Feeder with a convenient wide-mouth bottle. It makes filling easier, resulting in fewer spills as you pour nectar. Plus, the bottle is made of translucent red glass so you can effortlessly monitor nectar levels.
Keeps Insects Out
Provide an effective line of defense against unwanted insects with our built-in bee guards and ant moat. These features combine to protect your nectar, so itโs reserved just for your hungry hummers. The bee guards keep bees at bay, while hummingbirds can still easily access the nectar. To keep ants away, fill the top of the lid with water to create a barrier that prevents them from crawling down to the ports.
Accommodates Multiple Birds
The Perky-Petยฎ Pinch-Waist Red Glass Hummingbird Feeder boasts four ports with comfortable perches. The vibrant red color of the base, moat, and bottle paired with the attractive flower-shaped ports are perfect for attracting hummers, while the number of ports ensures thereโs enough room for multiple birds to dine simultaneously.
Comes Apart For Thorough Cleaning
Hummingbirds prefer to visit fresh, clean feeding stations. To make that easier, this feeder disassembles completely for effortless cleaning. Remove the ant moat, base and bottle with ease โ even the built-in bee guards come apart! In addition, the wide-mouth design allows you to access hard-to-reach spots of the bottle. Remember to clean your feeder at least once per week with a mild soap and water solution to prevent mildew buildup.
โWill definitely buy this item again! So far, this is one of the BEST hummingbird feeders on the market. [Iโve been feeding backyard birds] since 1985, and still going strong. Now my 11 grandkids [are] involved. We have fun identifying birds that visit our feeders. Iโve had mine since 2017, and so far NO: leaks, bees."

Perky-Petยฎ Pinch-Waist Red Glass Hummingbird Feeder
Moved to the foothills, noticed the hummers flying around so purchased this at our local Ace. The birds enjoy it, BUT SO DO THE BEES. It leaks and drips constantly, so the bees and wasps (?) are all over it. The design, yes it's inexpensive, is terrible. Either the drinking holes are to big or the angles wrong so it coats itself in a sticky mess. I only fill it to below the waist. But turning it right side up after filling, results in nectar squirting out the the ports. What a mess ... so we bought the glass pineapple which I will negatively comment on next ...
Weโre sorry to hear about the leaking and the trouble with bees and wasps around your Perky-Petยฎ Pinch-Waist Red Glass Hummingbird Feeder. When filling the feeder, we recommend filling it while the nectar reservoir is upright, avoiding overfilling, and firmly securing the base before carefully inverting the feeder. A small amount of nectar may escape from the feeding ports during this process as the feeder equalizes, but placing the feeder in a shaded area and away from direct sunlight can help reduce dripping and fermentation. Keeping the feeding ports and base clean and free of sticky nectar can also help discourage insects. We appreciate you sharing this detailed feedback and hope these tips help provide a better feeding experience.

Why canโt you make bee guards in red? Everyone knows yellow attracts bees and wasps. I like my feeder but will switch to one that can have red portal flowers instead of yellow. Insects scaring off my birds. Get with it, not rocket science.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. Weโre glad to hear you like the Perky-Petยฎ Pinch-Waist Red Glass Hummingbird Feeder. The yellow bee guards are designed to help prevent insects from accessing the nectar while still allowing hummingbirds to feed. To help reduce insect activity, try moving the feeder to a different location and keeping it clean and free of spilled nectar. We appreciate your suggestion regarding red bee guards and will share your feedback with our product team.

Easy filling. Bird Friendly. The red glass and base is very attractive to the hummers!
Used these for 30 years but the new ones seem thinner plastic and base splits and cracks. They refuse to sell parts. Junk now. I'm so sorry to have to say this.

I have used this feeder for 30 yrs. They were great for years. The plastic that is the screw on piece to close the bottle used to be made of softer plastic. If a part would happen to break replacement parts could be ordered online. 3 or 4 yrs ago I bought all new feeders (I bought 8) The screw on parts ALL cracked. I checked with Perky-Pet, no parts available to replace broken parts. DO NOT BUY THIS FEEDER. It is now junk.
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Perky-Petยฎ Pinch-Waist Red Glass Hummingbird Feeder. Weโre sorry to hear about the issue with the base cracking and the difficulty finding replacement parts. Thatโs not the experience we want for a long-time user.
To help reduce stress on the base, avoid over-tightening when attaching it to the bottle and handle with care during cleaning and refilling. If the feeder is not functioning as intended, weโd like to help with a solution. Please contact us and our team will be glad to assist.

Not perfect but a good feeder

I have used this feeder for years. i have six in use at all times. Buy at Walmart for best price. Not always happy with performance but best value. Takes and performance issues...
--Size is perfect. Wouldn't want larger size as nectar would spoil.
--Bees remain present but Hummers work through it. Non issue.
--Occasionally I get some leakage were bottom feeder screws into glass vessel. I use a PVC water tape and it solves problem.
--Older feeders fail in two areas, 1...Top plastic loop breaks. 2...top plastic unit cracks making connection to glass vessel impossible.
I will continue to use and buy this feeder.

I have three t...
hey are very easy to take apart and put together and clean so no complaints lots and lots of hummingbirds ...
all three are attached to deck clamp- hooks along with numerous other perky pet hummingbird feeders
They leak leak leak!!!!! Worst hummingbird feeder we have ever owned...what a waste of money....we r going to try to figure out something to fix the slow leak. Normally I wouldn't say such horrible things about one of your products but this one is awful....so sorry but the honest truth!!!!!
I like the idea behind the design; easy to take apart and clean and keeps bees and ants out. But it leaks nectar around the flowers. The bottle seals well with the base; but the pool inside the flower leaks at the stem. I can take the bottle off, fill the base and watch it slow drip. I tried sealing it with teflon tape but to no avail. Not worth the hassle.
Thank you for sharing this experience. We're sorry to hear that this is happening with your feeder. These concerns have been shared with our Product Managers. The feeder has a 30 day return period at the retailer and is covered under a one year replacement policy.

I bought two of these to defeat the bees that suddenly started swarming my other feeders. They almost work. You have to invert these to fill and then right them to hang. If you are not very careful some nectar will spill. Even rinsing the with a light spray will not clean the spill and bees will attack. Sometimes there are only a few but sometimes they mass on the "bee proof" ports and attack the hummers. See photo. This is not the bee resistant feeder you are looking for. Thank goodness the hummers know how to dance to avoid the stings while feeding!
do you have replacement parts? The top has broken so I can no longer hang it.

Hi, we appreciate that information and are so sorry to hear your feeder broke. Unfortunately, replacement parts are not available.

This is a wonderful Hummingbird feeder. It is the only type that I use, and have used it for years. I saw that you do not sell replacement parts, but I would like to suggest that you consider doing so. The yellow bee guards are not easy to clean and break. I have had to replace to entire feeder multiple times because I needed bee guards. Perhaps your CEO or Controller will see an opportunity for increased revenue with replacement parts. Thank you.

My husband bought me 3 of these for my birthday in October. I have put them up for the summer, and they leak everywhere. How can I fix this?
Question by: Angela on Jun 3, 2025, 10:25โฏAM
Make sure all parts are tightly secured and the feeder is kept level. Leaks can occur if itโs tilted or overfilled.

Does it come with a hanging wire?
Question by: Darlene Farlow on Apr 17, 2026, 12:23โฏPM
Yes, the Perky-Petยฎ Pinch-Waist Red Glass Hummingbird Feeder comes with a built-in metal hanger, so itโs ready to hang right out of the box.
