Henry Bell Essentials Pre Filled Seed Feeder Bird Feeder Mixed Wild Bird Food Ready to Hang

Henry Bell Ready to Feed Superior Seed Mix Feeder – 250g

This is Henry Bell's Ready to Feed feeder: a hanging tube that arrives already filled with 250g of their Superior Seed Mix, so it goes from packaging to branch in one movement. It is the cheapest way into garden bird feeding, and a sensible gift for someone who has never put a feeder up.

The useful part is that it does not stop there. Henry Bell make the point that the feeder is reusable and easily refillable, so once the first 250g has gone it carries on as an ordinary seed feeder — you buy seed by the bag from then on, not another feeder.

Performance & Benefits

• Arrives pre-filled with 250g of Henry Bell Superior Seed Mix; nothing to assemble or decant.
• Reusable and refillable, so it is a feeder you keep rather than a disposable pack.
• Hangs straight from a branch, a hook or a feeding station arm.
• A seed mix draws a broader range of species than any single straight seed does.
• Low outlay, which makes it an easy way to test whether a spot in the garden gets used.

Suitable For

• House sparrows, greenfinches, chaffinches, blue tits, great tits and coal tits.
• First-time bird feeders, and gardens with no feeding station yet.
• Gifts, and a spare feeder to rotate in while another is being cleaned.
• Refilling with any Henry Bell seed mix or sunflower hearts once empty.
• Not the feeder for peanuts, which need a mesh feeder — the Henry Bell Heavy Duty Everyday Peanut Feeder or the Heritage Everyday Peanut Feeder take those.

Feeding

• Unwrap and hang it; the 250g of Superior Seed Mix is already in place.
• Hang it clear of fences and low cover, ideally within a few metres of a bush the birds can bolt into.
• Refill through the lid once the level drops, with any Henry Bell seed mix or sunflower hearts.
• A mixed seed leaves husks under the feeder — move the feeder occasionally or sweep beneath it.
• Keep fresh water available nearby.
