Crazy HUMMINGBIRDS Fighting over Your Feeders EASY DIY Fix For Hummingbird Feeder Recipe in Garden
#hummingbird #hummingbirds #hummingbirdsfighting
I love the chairs that have plants in them!
Thanks❤
You're brilliant Robbie! Love this fix for the fighting over feeders. Please stay safe! Much love to you.
Robbie, you crack me up. How creative you are, as always!
I always tell my daughter that I hope our humming babies find your garden for the winter.
What an excellent idea!!!
Robbie, you have such great inventions.🙂
You mentioned using lids to shade plants during one of your garden tours. I had tried using wet newspaper to cover my carrot seeds causing them to germinate quicker. I got this idea from another RUclips gardener. However using this method I got mold growing with my sprouting seeds!😕 The next day after hearing you mention about using the lids to shade plants I got my tot lid, shaded my carrot tot-planter and in 24-48 hours almost all my seeds had germinated! 🥳 And no mold!🙂
Thanks Robbie!🙂
I love the way you come up with these ideas. Y'all definitely keep my entertained. I swear I love this channel! Love y'all, keep the videos going!!😎😎😎😎

What a wonderful idea, have a great day you two, much love.
Thanks so much for all the hummingbird info you give. I've had a wonderful summer watching my new friends. Over here in NC I hadn't noticed my hummingbird fighting until recently. I figure they're getting anxious about winter. I'll keep this is mind next spring/summer!
this is our first year maintaining a feeder. we find great info in your vlogs. Hummingbirds are super entertaining!! In southern Ohio, haven't seen any hummingbirds for about a week. love your positive energy!!
Robbie so beautiful!! thank you for share with us!!!
So smart!! Thank you for sharing!!😃❤
So clever! I really have to get a soldering iron lol. Love your enthusiasm, always!!! Thanks for all the inspiration. 😊
Excellent idea friend! I really like it! Hope you guys are staying safe and enjoying the weekend 😊
Wonderful idea!!! You're awesome!
What a Wonderful Idea!💡
I just did this two weeks ago, I already have three feeders on the patio and I put three more in my backyard one over east side and one over west side and one over north side. I tied them to my picket fence to tree limb with parachute ropes. Now I see 3 hummingbirds each one now sitting on the parachute rope beside the feeder like it belong to them. No more fighting as they have their own. Fun to watch them.
Brilliant solution!! Thank you!!
Hi Robbie & Gary. Very interesting idea !!. Thank you. Have a good week.
💛😊👵XX.
I'm gonna try it. Awesome idea!
Can't wait to try this next year. All ours have left the area, PA, until spring. We have a couple that hog 6 different feeders, spaced out, always fighting. Thank you for the idea!!
Great idea. Thank you.
BRILLIANT!🌻
Great idea!
I think that was a great idea not very many people would have thought about that if they had a lot of hummingbirds I love and hummingbirds are so pretty

Thanks im a new subscriber you are awesome 👌
You’re a genius😁
Gonna try to fashion something like this tomorrow
Do you ever get headachs? Your always thinking & comming up with brilliant ideas!
I had a hummingbird that kept sitting on top of the shepherds hook guarding the feeder . I happen to put up an umbrella on my balcony. The hummingbird doesn’t sit their anymore. I wonder if it decided to go in a tree where it can see better. Wow maybe I had a type of blinder without knowing It was a blinder. I just thought he didn’t like the umbrella. I guess it blocked his view. Interesting. I like your idea. This hummingbird was a bully lol Ty for posting
You are so smart! I live in an apt so my patio in the back is small. I have a hummingbird who sits on my kumquat tree or the fence and scares everyone off, except a couple who I assume are his siblings. I don’t know what to do. Any ideas? I have 2 feeders, they always have plenty of food. How come they don’t fight at all the feeders by your window?
Great ideas as always! I need help with the house finches. I never knew I had so many in my yard. They are constantly on the hummingbird feeders. They are adorable also but I told them they have to share. I even bought them a finch sock and they are even more on the feeders... any advice would be great. Thanks for another great video.✌❤🙏
My grandmother ended up just taking out all the feeders except for the ones only the hummingbirds were able to use. If you stop giving them something to come for, they wont show up. Idk what a finch sock is. But I'm assuming it's one of those little hang8ng nests and by providing them with a nice cozy place to sleep or nest is just asking them to populate your yard/land. Lol
For now i will start with putting them at different sides of the house. I started with 3 and i’m up to 10 in 2 years with 2 feeders
I have a question? Is there a time in the season here in Torrance CA, that the hummingbirds will stop coming? And do I take down my feeder during certain times of the season?
Unfortunately that won’t work in my small backyard 😭 plus we wouldn’t be able to see the other feeders if we covered the ones we have in front of our windows.😞
But a great idea for a garden!
I gave up my view of the birds to ensure more of them get fed. It is about them, not me.
we like to see them chase each other around. love. raz our hummers are gone until spring. 2 weeks or so. no travelers today. been gone most of day. so could be more. northern indiana. love. raz.
B Reid i am in south central pa. Haven’t seen a hummer for about 2 weeks. Brought feeders in for the winter.
No, don't encourage aggression! I saw a hummingbird stab to death another hummer because of competition!!!
Thank you so much for these ideas. I'm in the Midwest and haven't seen any hummingbirds in over a week. I'm still putting food out for them just in case. I'm saving this video for next year.
Yet another reason to mix more sugar in your syrup!! For those hummers that can only grab a quick sip or two before being chased off by a dominant bird. By weight a 1:4 mix is only 17% sucrose; a 1:3 mix is 22%; a 1:2 mix is 30%. Filling your feeders with 1:2 sugar means that a weaker bird can grab 76% more sugar each time it manages to steal a sip, giving it a much better chance of getting the energy it needs.
How did I come up with those numbers? One cup sugar weighs 200 grams; 1 cup water weighs 237 grams. A 1:4 mix is 200g + 948g = 1148g. Percent sugar by weight is (200 / 1148) x 100 = 17.4%, the other mixes follow in the same way. At 30% sugar by weight, a 1:2 mix is much closer to the 30-35% sucrose content of natural flower nectar preferred by hummers. Don't be afraid to do it - you're not gonna kill 'em - they've been managing their diet for thousands of years - and... You'll be helping those hummers that are constantly being chased away by dominant birds... - waw -
BTW: Benjamin F Tucker was among the first to mass-feed hummers in the 1940s. He made his own feeders using laboratory glassware. His work is described in the December 1946 Popular Mechanics story "Hummingbird Cafeteria." The lead photo shows 22 of his 'flask' feeders lined up on wood shelves. A quote from page 125: "If you supply artificial nectar - half water and half sugar - he'll stay long after blooming time." Sounds like a 1:1 mix to me - 46% sugar by weight and I don't believe he poisoned any hummers... (Yes, PM December 1946 may be found on-line - I'll let you figure that out for yourself...)
I was having trouble with a lot of bee trouble keeping the hummingbirds from feeding. I found on utube to put olive oil between the flower ports where they feed and the bees left!!!
I should have this problem! I only see one at a time.
I had lots of hummers until a few weeks ago and noticed they started fighting so bad that nine was getting to eat so they finally just left. Mine are hanging in my big picture window so hoping to see you come up with something for window areas.
My feedersare on the front porch. The Hummingbird was a great source of entertainment this summer and I was so excited when more came. But the bully bird would not share so I put another feeder out. He wouldn't let them eat from the second feeder either. I have seen up to 5 at one time, but the bully sits in the tree and runs the others off. I wanted to put him in time out. I hope your ideas work for me!
I just got me a four flower hummingbird feeder and it said on the box plus food including 8 oz of hummingbird food makes 32 oz of liquid nectar how much of the nectar would I put in to my four flowered hummingbird feeder I'm kind of lost the directions really don't make too much sense but the food that they sent me is dried up food I guess it will dissolve I think it says yeah it will dissolve mixes two tablespoons of dry nectar with 4 oz of water stir until completely dissolved makes two makes 32 oz 1 quart of liquid nectar any unused liquid nectar is best stored in the refrigerator and a closed container you recommend you clean hummingbird feeders between each refill how would I make more nectar like do you have a ingredient on what I could use to put in next time once I run out of this stuff
I've had to add up to. 9 feeders, hummingbird Battle Royale ,east coast north Carolina had more hummingbirds this yrs then ever, October now & most are gone. See occasionally.
I found a solution for my territorial hummingbird that was taking over two hummingbird feeders. I force my hummingbird to share with himself. By putting a little mirror on his favorite perch. Now he's so busy looking at him self other hummingbirds just come in and feed
Are the feeders better with perches?? I noticed you’ve added perches to some. I bought three feeders last month, all without perches because I thought those were for larger birds, but I didn’t attract any hummingbirds. 😩 I’m going to order 2-3 new feeders with perches to see how things go next year. I think they’ve already left my area for this year.
If you added perches though, can you please show us how?
In another video, Robbie shows how she creates perches (on feeders that don't have them) for each "flower" using twist ties!
How’d you like to eat yr dinner standing up the entire time?😊
Hello Sweetheart
Bob Cooney
First
I have broad billed hummingbirds and they are mostly all males..they all seam to own a feeder but will share with the others at times but there is 1 bird that claims 1 feeder and he will go far away and watch it but most of the time he will hang out all day long close to it in several differant places..the funny thing is an oriole likes his feeder too and all he can do about it is fly around it squawking that does nothing at all to stop it
Not sure how I'm going to get blinders on my humming bird's

Yes, it is funny sometimes but I feel bad for the birds that has to sneak and drink
I tried this and it scared the Hummingbirds away , they didn’t come back for a almost two week
What about trapping the bully humingbird and putting him in humingbird jail for an hour?
😂🤣 best comment so far. Lol hahaha.
To catch a humming bird😂😂😂
That is what I thought, too. Just joking.
I did trap one once And he nearly killed himself trying to get out which was extremely stressful to watch so it is definitely not worth it. He had some stuff stuck to his foot that needed to be removed is the only reason I did it and was able to get it off of him and then immediately released him so he would stop almost harming himself trying to escape.
Multiple ways to do this
Only shows one
Hummingbird fights are the #1 reason to have feeders. Just sayin.
