- Best hummingbird feeder
- I have tried several different types of hummingbird feeders, ones that were very cute and decorative and the birds NEVER drink from them. The Perky Pet 209 Hummingbird Feeder attracts hummingbirds and are here constantly.

- Not that great
- I did look this product over at a local hardware store.My husband saw an antique glass feeder that was being sold next to this one and we bought that instead and it works great. Important things to remember about feeders is that you need to be able to clean them every 3 or 4 days at the latest. Hummingbirds are delicate so its really important to keep to a cleaning routine. I make my own nectar 4 pts water(2 cups) with 1 part organic sugar(1/2 cup). You boil it for 1 to 2 minutes, then cool and put in the fridge. Fills a glass feeder twice. I change usually on Sundays and Wednesdays. The hummingbird comes all the time. They are such wonderful creatures. Also,please don't add red food coloring. You do not need it to attract them and its also potentially damaging. I place the feeder among my bleeding heart bushes.The bird frequents the feeder all day long.

- Perky
- This is one of the best hummingbird feeders I've ever owned. If you were to go to the local pet store for one of these it's $35.00 or more. Thanks Amazon. The hummers love it.

- Terrific feeder
- This is a terrific hummingbird feeder. I have visitors using it every day. They like the perches and I like that it holds a large amount of nectar and is easy to fill and clean. I was also happy that it came with a hanging wire. So often I have to try to find something to hang a feeder with and that is a pain.

- This feeder is idiot proof
- I bought this feeder after reading the reviews here. I installed it outside
my window and filled it w/ 4 parts water to 1 part sugar (which is the recommended mix) and put it out last night. Today I have humming birds feeding from it! That's what I call idiot proof.
To clean this feeder, bleach is perfectly fine so long as you rinse it thoroughly w/ hot water. I brew beer all the time and bleach is my preferred way to clean beer bottles. Home brewers have a faucet attachment which
aids in cleaning a beer bottle. Basically an inverted high pressure squirter. It costs about 7 bucks. I recommend getting one of them. All your cleaning troubles will be over. - 2008-05-26, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
