I tried some and it immediately ran out the bottom holes and into my sink as I had expected. I was SO disappointed. I was really looking for a replacement for the Thistle Socks I have used and replaced several times. After rereading the reviews of others, I even tried again thinking I missed something. NOPE!!!! The nyjer seed falls right through the holes. This is definitely not the item I need. 6 of 7 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Perky-Pet NF16 16-Inch Metal F-Inch Feeder, 1-1/2-Pound Capacity (Lawn & Patio) This Perky Pet NF16 16 inch long metal Finch Feeder is going overlooked unfortunately. It has no perches for the Finch but what it does have is hundreds of perforations where the feed sticks out and the birds cling to while eating. The Finch literally cover the feeder each clinging in a different direction. Getting the food out appears to be no problem for these birds. A good quality plastic feeder lasts one or two years here in the OK summer sun and cold winters. It will be interesting to see how long an all metal feeder will last. It feeds more birds and has less waste. Enjoy a flock on your feeder - try this one!

This review is from: Perky-Pet NF16 16-Inch Metal F-Inch Feeder, 1-1/2-Pound Capacity (Lawn & Patio) This is the best Gold Finch feeder out there! The holes are just big enough for the gold finches to get the seeds out but to small for the aggressive house finches that are here in So. California. Now that the house finches don't come around I have 40+ gold finches feeding on this feeder (not all at once but 10 can feed on this feeder at one time) and in my garden! I highly recommend this :) |
