Can this deer feeder work with poultry feed?

Not sure. If Poultry feed is pellets than it would, if it is powder type no it would not

yes, it works great with cracked corn. However, if you use the solar battery, you will need to clean off the solar shield as it will get corn dust on it.

I don't see why not. My two have been working for two years with only one problem--the squirrels can eat a hole through the plastic top so we have to protect it.

It should work fine with scratch feed. I put cracked corn in mine a couple of times.

I have used them to make several bird feeders. They work great with a spray paint and attaching jar. This item and similar ones are usually described as poultry feeders when I have looked for this type of item. Assuming if you have chickens, this is a type of item you might use. Thus, it can be used in multiple ways depending on your needs.

if you use the quail rails for this, it should do fine for birds also. I use my regular chicken rails for my ducks, chickens, and pheasants. I use the quail rails of course for my cortunix and bobwhite quails.

I don't think so. The slits are very small, just enough room for a thistle or two to be taken at a time. Be aware this is an upside down feeder for goldfinches only. I have found it to be a waste of money as I have only had one or two visits occasionally. They just have not taken to it.

There are two holes, opposite each other. The feed tends to "Pool" outside the feeder, giving ample opportunity for multiple deer(And squirrels and raccoons) to reach the feed. I don't think this would be good for pellets because they would get wet.

NOT with this bird feeder. My birds LOVE it!! It's the first one emptied!! It may take awhile for them to eat out of a new feeder. I put up a feeder last year, that took the birds 3 months to *find* it!! No kidding!! Once they start eating seed out of this, you'll be out there all the time filling it up ;)

Yes, we have woodpeckers at this feeder. We only use sunflower seeds. It was a great buy!!

Yes it would be suitable. I have even small softbills using it. The only thing is: You got to sand down the acrylic perch inside of the feeder to make it more secure for pearching, because it is too slippery for the birds.

It just does not work. The deer graze within feet of the unit. I do not know about squirrels since they ar not a problem in my garden but I doubt this thin will help.

Well idk. I don't see why not tho. I like the way it's made. It is my favorite feeder and I have tried 3 other styles. The metal uprights keep my chickens from wasting feed on the ground. The only thing I did to optimize its construction was to fasten it to a piece of a 2x6 the same length to give it move weight so they wouldn't turn it over. Some had suggested wire tie to fence but I like to be able to move it around and pick it up to clean it. So I found adding the platform base made more sense for me. Best of luck with your flock!

I don't know about birds, never noticed. It does keep larger animals, such as rabbits out of my garden. Does not appear to work on deer. I can say that when I remove it after growing season there are bird droppings on my car and when it is out the bird droppings are not there on the car.

I'm pretty sure it could swallow a 10 lb bag of mixed nut and fruit seed with no problem. I don't put more than a couple of pounds in at a time b/c the deer have been vacuuming it clean at night if I forget to bring it in the garage

Yes, but you need to crush it very fine, and be very careful with how you set the feeding door. Large flakes will block it, and you may end up with the feeder not feeding at all.

I believe this feeder is intended for outdoor wild bird feeding. At least, that is how I use mine.

From what I've researched this feed would be OK for quails and they also like food from your kitchen such as pasta, cake, rice and lettuce. You will find that if the quail doesn't like it then the food won't get eaten but I would check the internet for their favorite foods as there are different species of quails.

I don't know. We have mixed bird seed in it. There is a bar that you set to a certain weight. Anything heavier than that weight will drop the bar and close the feeder.

The opening at the bottom of the feeded is about 1/2" so I would think they would...we use a product called Clean Mix bird food which is pieces of peanuts and we don't have a problem. We have been very happy with this feeder. Hope htis helps...
