Can this feeder be poll mounted? Thanks.

Only if it has a place to hang. What makes it work is if the cage has squirrel weight on it making it drop down to cover seed ports. I have the large feeder with the cardinal ring and this one. This one the flickers, creepers and blue jays particularly enjoy because they can hang on the cage in any position. Brome, to me, is the best feeders on the market! We live in a rural forested area and its not unusual to have up to 30 - 40 squirrels trying to do anything and everything to get in the feeders. They even wrap theirselves around the cardinal ring and nap. Their only success is to do a flying assault to knock seed out on the ground.

Yes, you need to already have a pole with mounting bracket or get one seperately. I already had one that we reused. The feeder has predrilled holes in the bottom for the bracket. Hope this helps! If you live in the country, o highly recommend the raccoon baffle, also available thru Amazon. I have had it about 4 months now and not a squirrel or coon has gotten past it :)

Yes, I have mine on a pole. You have to mount a plate on the bottom that don't come with it. I took the one off my old birdfeeder. You can buy the plates at most places that carry birdfeeders. I love my feeder:)

I'm not sure you can. The way the roof is hinged, you might just be opening the feeder when it hangs. You might be able to rig something with some eyes on the end panels but I'm unsure if that would cause stability issues.

The picture shows a mounting bracket because you can mount it. That is what I did. There is a removable screen in the feeder that allows for drainage. I have found that rain water does not collect in the feeder. The seed gets damp, but there is not a pool of water. The bottom of the wooden part of the feeder is not solid and the metal screen allows for drainage. I have been very pleased with my feeder. The construction of the feeder is very good.

That - hmmm - I don't see how. The mechanism that controls the opening and closing of the feeding slots - means that the thing needs to hang, and the outer grid moves up and down. I can't see how it could be mounted on a pole. I would recommend emailing the company with their suggestions.

Sorry, but I think it isn't ideal for mounting, it's made to hang (from a tree branch, hook, etc), but the company may have suggestions for you. Their customer service is excellent, and they offer a one year guarantee for their products. It's a great feeder, though.

Guess I am not quite sure what you mean, but the feeder has a wire piece at the top to hang on hook. Nothing on the side can be used as it would spoil the squirrel busting mechanism.

This feeder is really meant to be hung from a hook or sheperd's pole. The hole's are not large but they are big enough for small birds to eat from. Hope this helps you.

Yes it does, and that is the best way to mount. I hung the feeder and it broke after two months due to cheap plastic construction. I had an opus feeder for 15+ years I was replacing.

Yes. It has a hook on top and a hook on bottom. Extremely simple to install with dual hooks. If your square feeder hangs straight down and does not extend over the dome, then it should work great. It could be any shape of feeder as long as it hangs down and is smaller in diameter than dome. It is not bulky and looks great. Good value. The Seller shipped in a timely manner and without damage. It looks exactly like the picture. I liked the dome because it was boutique and not overwhelming to take away from bird sightings. I also installed a tubular, cylindrical green baffle at the bottom of my feeder pole to discourage squirrels and chipmunks from eating bird feed. Everything works great. Hope this helps. Dennis

Probably, if you mount it to your house or another structure that they cannot climb up to the base of the pole. Mine is mounted to my deck, so the animals have easy access to it. Luckily, one the squirrels get to the feeder, they can't get a good grip on it and they fall off.

Yes. Our pole is shaped like a T and the feeder hangs on one end. It is durable, attractive and the birds love it - especially cardinals.

The pole mount is built in. There is a round tube shape that goes up from the bottom inside where the seed goes. This feeder does keep the squirrels at bay.

It's not a feeder that will sit on top of a pole. It hangs and is somewhat hard to pu the lid on tight when you fill it. Not squirrel proof.

It does not. I mounted it to an existing post to replace another feeder I had.

Yes, there is a mount under the feeder which the pole slips into. It comes with all the hardware.
