    Nice Feeder but I was put off by the price.

      They are pricy but they are built from high quality material that will last forever and they are all hand built in Indiana.

    Could you add a suet feeder to the side? Do you recommend that arrangement?

    • @MarksBackyardBirds

      Yes, some companies attach them but the adaptable suet cage from Birds Choice have mounting holes and screws for that ver application

    Does this feeder already have pre-drilled holes on the underside to mount or do they have to be drilled?

    • @MarksBackyardBirds
      @MarksBackyardBirds  5 месяцев назад +1

      You have to drill the holes. A good mounting plate generally comes with the screws.

      @@JujuPig-vz5mq There are many different mounting plates available so they couldn't possibly predrill for all of them.

      Hi Mark! How do you occasionally clean the pole mounted feeder for esthetic purposes? Do you just take a hose to it?

      @@deniseaukerman I take it off at least once a year when I have the power washer out and give it a good cleaning but most of the time I just use the water hose spay nozzle and a brush to work it over.
