Gardman | Wild Bird Feeding | Flip Top Niger (Nyger/Nyjer) Seed Feeder
A durable plastic feeder for feeding Niger Seed and very fine finch seed blends, the Gardman Flip Top Niger Seed Feeder is a simple feeder designed for easy refilling and cleaning.
The micro feeding ports allow small birds to feed without creating the mess that Niger seed is often associated with, while the handy feeding perches allow birds to eat comfortably when the feeder hangs from your Wild Bird Feeding Station.
Always use Bird Safe Disinfectant when cleaning bird feeders, and remove uneaten food regularly to prevent the build-up of bacteria and the spread of disease.
Height: 20cm
Holds: 270g of Niger Seed
Description
Durable and built to last, it has a sturdy waterproof lid to prevent food spoilage and is the ideal feeder for nyjer seed which needs a specific feeder due to its tiny size.
Our top tips for encouraging more birds to visit your garden:
- Consider providing clean, fresh drinking water alongside feeders. You can use a bird bath or a hanging Wild Bird Water Drinker to dispense the water. Providing a source of safe water not only encourages birds to spend more time in your garden, but also helps your local birds to survive, particularly through the Summer and Winter months, when other sources of water can dry up or freeze over and become inaccessible.
- If birds are visiting your feeders, consider continuing to provide food throughout the year. If local birds recognise your garden as a reliable source of food, they will be more likely to be make a habit of visiting you. Additionally, feeding throughout the year will aid your local wild bird population in the event of temporary food shortages, which can occur in any season.
- If you are new to feeding birds, please note that it may take some time before birds start to use your feeder.
- Refill feeders in the early morning, to ensure that there is always food available when birds are looking to eat to replace energy lost through the night.
- Protect your local bird population by helping to reduce the spread of disease between different birds. All food available to the birds should be fresh and dry; wet food should be discarded on a daily basis, as it can harbour harmful bacteria. Feeders and other areas where birds may gather within your garden, such as bird baths, should be cleaned on a regular basis, using a bird safe cleaning product such as Johnson's Clean 'n' Safe Bird Disinfectant.
