Create a safe haven for garden birds with the Nuttery squirrel proof feeders, their clever cages allow your garden birds in but keep those unwanted guests out! Predator proof they prevent adult Squirrels*, Jackdaws, Magpies, Pigeons and other large birds from getting to the treats.
The Nuttery Original Ocean Green Squirrel Proof Nut Feeder has been designed based on the traditional parrot cage which will make a great addition to your garden. With a squirrel proof cage, the peanuts inside can only be reached by your small garden birds as the steel bars prevent access to adult squirrels and large birds.
Made from high quality metal, and finished in a stylish ocean green, this peanut feeder features a domed base to help with peanut flow within the feeder, a sturdy handle which is ideal for using to hang up this feeder from a branch or hook, and a quick release lid for easy filling.
This classic bird feeder can also be fully dismantled for a thorough clean by simply unscrewing the base, taking out the inner tube and then easily removing the perches to ensure every part of this bird nut feeder is well cleaned to keep it hygienic and safe for garden birds to feed from.
*A Note On Juvenile Squirrels
The Nuttery feeders can only protect against adult grey squirrels and large adult birds such as magpies, crows rooks etc, which ultimately do the most damage. Some birds, such as a woodpecker, wont fit through the bars but could manage to get their beaks inside and access the food.
There is always a chance than an adolescent young squirrel could squeeze into the bars and access the feeder. The young squirrels look very similar to adults but are actually far fluffier making them much more flexible! Squirrels are normally born in March, April, July and August so there may well be a risk around these months. This is short term issue and will be the problem of any feeder that has researched the necessary bar spacing required. You may also find that adolescent jackdaws, crows and pigeons may find their way in. The bars on these feeders cannot be made smaller to protect from adolescent or red squirrels as this would pose a risk to the birds.
If squirrels do manage to get into the feeders to prevent damage to the plastic tubes a a dash of chilli flakes mixed in with the nuts or seeds will have no effect on the birds at all but will deter the squirrels.
Dimensions: Height: 34 cm x Diameter: 17 cm.
Capacity 450g
Please note the feeder is not supplied with a wall bracket.

Having wasted my money twice (elsewhere!) on supposedly squirrel-proof feeders, this one finally seems to be living up to its name. The trick seems to be in the combination of two loop-shaped hangers, which when looped together over a branch etc. seem to stay in place and thwart unwanted visitors. For extra security, you could even use a bit of garden wire to twist around them each time you refill, but the point is that unlike so many feeders, the squirrels can't access the top of the feeder in any way that they could penetrate it and get to the nuts inside, something that was regularly happening with other feeders I've tried, even those with a cage around them.

Great product. Keeps the squirrels outs. Lets the birds in. I love it. (Posted on 19/11/2019)
I bought this feeder to replace the original Nuttery feeder which was over 20 years old and had finally got damaged by juvenile squirrels. The new one is of the same good quality and I’m sure it will last just as long. (Posted on 17/11/2019)
