2L Bottle Feeder for Larger Seeds

Last crawled date: 4 years, 4 months ago

This is a simple remix I made in Blender of Gazorpa's "Big Bird Bottle Feeder". The feeder itself has been scaled up a bit to increase the size of the seed holes, and the conical shape inside the feeder (to distribute seed) has been lowered to a short dome. These are the only two changes I made - the threads portion is still the same size to fit on the same 2L bottles. The changes allow for using larger seeds/blends, like stripped sunflower or fruit and nut pieces. I had been using 2 of the original feeders for awhile and the sparrows loved the cheaper seed blends of mostly millet and milo (small seeds). However, when I used some higher quality seed blends that some other birds around me prefer (Nuthatches, Chickadees and Titmice) the sunflower seeds and peanut pieces would "clog up" the holes and not flow into the tray. This remix seems to have fixed that problem
