CJ Wildlife revolutionary Seed Feeder Designs
02-01-2007 -
The tube feeder has been around for a long time & fundamentally remained unchanged from its original design by Peter Kilham. Subtle changes have occurred but these were hardly noticeable until now.
The new CJ Wildlife tube feeders have made a major step forward. The new Perching Ring not only attracts more birds but the birds are much more comfortable using them. Traditional perch configuration meant birds had to sit sideways on the feeder. This was not very comfortable & the birds were more vulnerable to predators because their vision was obscured by the feeder.
With the perching ring the birds can sit & feed naturally facing the food. Due to their near all round vision, by moving their heads slightly the birds can see behind them .This makes them feel more comfortable and they are safer from predators. The other big advantage of the perching ring is it will attract a wider range of species to the feeder than the traditional straight perch.
Other outstanding design features are a new patented profiled base, this allows seed to flow more easily to the feeding port, this means the birds can completely empty the feeder, rather than leaving some food potentially rotting in the bottom of the feeder. The feeder is easily taken apart for cleaning; this is done by unscrewing the bolts that hold the ports in place.
