Red Barn Classic Seed Feeder with Guardian

The robust metal guardian cage on the Red Barn Seed Feeder will help protect the contents of the plastic feeding tube inside from cheeky squirrels and greedy larger birds, meaning there is more seed left for your small feathered friends. Only smaller birds will be able to fit through the gaps on the plastic caging to access the feeding ports inside, allowing them to feed in safety. 

The base of the Red Barn Seed Feeder can be removed, turned upside down and then reattached for use as a seed catcher tray, so no tasty seed goes to waste! Available in small or medium, depending on how many garden visitors you have. 

Dimensions: 

Small - Height 30cm x Width 18.5cm (2 feeding ports)

Medium - Height 45cm x Width  18.5cm (4 feeding ports) 

*A Note On Squirrel Protection*

The feeders can only protect against adult grey squirrels and large adult birds. Some birds may not fit through the bars but could manage to get their head into the feeder.  Adolescent young squirrels could squeeze into the feeder due to their flexibility. The young squirrels look very similar to adults. This is a temporary seasonal issue.

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.

A deterrent of chilli flakes mixed in with the nuts or seeds will deter the squirrels whilst being completely harmless to the birds.
