I gave mine on a pole that has four curved hooks that curve out from the pole and under a squirrel hood and it's just fine. Only thing I wasn't that struck on was the filling of it and the sun flower seeds don't seem to come out as well as I think they should. Overall well made and good feeder though.

44inches. mount to the underside of feeder. Just don't expect it to be squirel proof. Little devils are really devious. I found the best thing for squirrel proofing is to buy some liquid hot pepper [not suited for humans] and mix it with the bird seed. Its only about 3 tablespoons for 5 lbs of seed. Just hold ur breath when u wash the bowl u mix it in.- hot stuff. But it works after they get their first taste they tend to not come back , only the newbees get after it. So you may do it twice and they won't be back for a while and u can put in 15 or 20 lbs of plain seed before they realize it not hot anymore. Enjoy still to watch their methods of attack.

About 2.5" and 16" tall. I have three feeders and lots of birds. One filling lasts 2-3 days.

The only area open to the elements are the 4 feeding ports on the bottom. The upper part is metal & plastic. The area where you refill seed is closed when not being filled. I supposed if you had a lot of rain & left the seed for an extended time it would clump. But this is a tiny feeder, & mine empties nearly daily.

I don't really know, but for this feeder I don't believe you need a seed tray. Seeds do not come flying out of this type of feeder like they do others. We have had a few seeds sprout but it's almost nothing.

Susan, the feeder probably weighs close to 2.5# . It is built to last. You and your birds will love it !!

The tray is about a half an inch deep, and then it sits inside of the base of the feeder, so you probably get another inch on top of that for seed and for birds. The birds in my neighborhood love this feeder!

Well, the base is deep enough (actually birds can walk in there) that only a few seeds fall to the ground but the same birds eat them after that. Besides I covered half of the openings so there's a controlled seed flow. My real problem is with a pigeon that knows there are seeds on the ground at any given time, it eats the seeds and leaves me with droppings. Other than that, I like this feeder very much.

This feeder will accept and deliver a variety of seed sizes. The seed storage area is divided into 3 different sectionsand a different seed size may be used in each section. Or the same size may be used in all three and/or mixed in allsections. My birds find the perch area to be solid and sure.

I just weighed the feeder when it was full and it comes to 9 pounds. It holds a lot of bird seed!

The feeder including the ring at the top is approximately 14 inches. It is a great feeder. Mine often has 8 to 10 finches on it at the same time!

About a 13 oz. coffee can full, holds about 12-13 oz of seed. You do have to watch this one as where the two sides are put together , there is a small space and it caught the toes of two birds, had to take metal tape and wrap this are to protect the birds. I did buy two of these, but would not get another one due to this problem unless you want to take the time to prevent this mishap. mjo

My feeder is about 6' off the ground, that height keeps the smaller animals that can't climb trees from getting the squirrel food and still low enough to easily refill it. I've had it about 3 months now and the squirrels love it. This feeder, unlike my last wooden feeder should last for years, well worth the extra money.

I haven't had a problem with wet seed. This is an excellent feeder. The interior is divided into three sections/sides which helps keep seed flowing freely

I fill the feeder 2-3 times a week. I used to use only sunflower seeds but now I mix regular bird seed into, makes it a little cheaper.

I estimate the Stokes Select holds a little over a quart of seed. Unless we have an unusually large number of finches feeding, we rarely fill the feeder more than halfway full. It is working out well for us.
