Diane I have 5 feeders I made out out flower pot inserts one onduit poles 4 foot high You wouldn't belive how they love them. Whats nice is they are 6 sections with drain holes in them. you just put mashed up scrambled eggs in them and they will eat them. I also put shells shells and oyster shells on there also.

Hi pmlover, I too would like to see a picture if possible of the Flower Pot insert Feeders, as I plan on putting some up for next year. Do the birds just eat the scrambled eggs during cold or bad wearher or do they eat them all year?
