hi all havent been on here for a while,

 

ive got a seeder that spins that is green on the bottom and has little prongs poking out where the seed is , its like a spot for each bird to eat,

my question is it always gets seed on 1 side and none on the other and there is always no new seed coming thru the top, i have tried lossiong it off and all but i dont know whats wrong, is there something im doing wrong?

 

thanks in advance cameron

sounds like a chook feeder to me

white plastic not clear with a hook through middle and a green tray with sections

your not doing anything wrong but its a chook feeder not a budgie seed holder

you can screw it up or down to let more feed out

 

personally id just get a new one i use to have them and found two many probs with the birds even had one try get into it and head stuck

Put it on a pedestal stand instead of hanging....if you have the room for it. As GB says its a chook feeder and as such is designed to be a ground feeder.

I used to use them, but i found them too much trouble. I found that they were not that effective as the husk would sit in the try and had no real chance to escape without my help.

 

I think you are much better off buying a bird bath and using that as a seed dish. That is what I did.

I use them and they work well for me. Mine hang also. Make sure the inner rod is not to tight. I'm not sure it wouldn't be flowing though. Mine dig into it and go through their seed no worries. They actually prefer these feeders over normal dishes. If your birds don't get where the fresh seed comes from, then it wont work as they're relying on you doing it, which defeats the point. Hope you can sort the problem out.
