Tube Bird Feeders

Tube shaped bird feeders are very popular because they are easy to hang, easy to fill, and fairly easy to clean. You will find many different models of tube feeders. They vary in size, in design, and in the materials with which they are constructed. Here are some popular models.

SQUIRREL PROOF TUBE FEEDERS ARE POPULAR

THIS IS CUTE

  • Squirrel proof
  • Plenty of surfaces for small clinging birds such as nuthatches to grip
  • Removeable perches offer feeding options for chickadees, finches and sparrows
  • Larger birds and squirrels are thwarted by the patented Squirrel Buster technology
  • Not harmful in any way
  • The patented Squirrel Buster technology is truly squirrel proof. Thousands of delighted bird lovers have confirmed it. The Squirrel Buster Classic has openings in the wire grid that align with the seed ports and provide birds access to the seed. When a squirrel climbs onto the feeder, its weight automatically forces the grid down, closing access to the seed ports. Squirrels and many large birds are foiled but not harmed in any way.

 

THIS IS FOR FINCHES

  • Satisfy hungry finches, chickadees, and other birds without squirrels swiping the seed
  • Innovative weight-sensitive design prevents squirrels and other large animals from reaching seed
  • Patented Tube Ventilation System keeps seed fresher longer to attract birds
  • Hang at least 16 inches away from secure foothold for squirrels
  • Includes 2-year warranty
  • Feed thistle to your finches and goldfinches without squirrels pilfering the seed using the Brome Squirrel Buster Finch Feeder. This innovative feeder has a two year warranty against squirrel damage and offers a weight sensitive design crafted to deter larger animals without harming them. A metal mesh shroud surrounds the clear plastic seed tube, creating clinging areas for your birds. Perches at the four bottom ports offer a resting spot for birds, while the four upper ports are accessed by clinging onto the wire. When a larger animal, such as squirrel, lands on the feeder, the shroud lowers over the ports so they are not able to reach the seed. The design of the seed tube also features a ventilation system, which allows warm air and humidity to escape from holes at the top of the feeder, while fresh air enters through the seed ports. This keeps the thistle seed fresh, helping to attract more birds. The tube holds 2.1 pounds of thistle seed for a generous feeding station. A green, metal cap protects the seed from excess moisture and a wire hanger enables the unit to be hung from a bracket or branch. The "negative grip" cover on the hanger disallows squirrels from outsmarting the mechanism - they slip off rather than grabbing the hanging wire with their feet and reaching the seed with their front paws. Hang the feeder at least 16 inches away from a secure foothold for squirrels. Delight the finches in your area with this Squirrel Buster Finch Feeder.
