I have several of these that the yellow flowerets "so to speak" that have broken or been pecked on by bigger birds can I but replacement flowers?

I bought some replacements this spring from Amazon. Search Perky-Pet and they should show up. They just snap in.

Yes, replacement flowers can be purchased. They are available both online (Amazon, e.g.) and in stores that carry the Perky Pet feeders.

Yes, indeed. I bought a little pack of replacement yellow flowers at a pet shop, to replace the little yellow flowers that cover the portals. Amazon probably sells them also. They are cheap. Also, the red plastic base will eventually deteriorate from the ultraviolet solar rays after several years daily usage, you can pop off the yellow flowers and keep them as replacements. Downey woodpeckers sometimes drink from the hummingbird feeder and sometimes pop off the flowers, and I find them in the flowerbed, they pop right back in easily.

Yes you can. From Perky-Pet a package of 9 flowers is $3.64 each plus about $6 shipping. From Amazon they are $6.18 each plus shipping unless you are a prime member with free shipping. In either case you just might want to order a couple of packages.

There is a weight limit of just a few pounds. If the hanging basket is fake flowers, it would probably be fine. If it is real flowers with dirt and all, it may be too heavy. I have a humming bird feeder, but had to use the smaller version. The large would be heavier than the recommended weight.

I doubt that you can get a replacement for that since they are not removable. My suggestion is to get in touch with the company.

I don't recommend this product. The plastic around the eating holes shatters within a fewweeks of the birds finding this. As a result the eating holes get huge and theseed won't stay in. The plasticperches break. I will be reverting to a yellow sock feeder.

Contact manufacturer directly. They do not sell replacement parts, but may replace the new bottoms for you. They had a great customer service area when I needed a replacement for my feeder.

no they can not. it is made for smaller birds like finches, chickadees and such. I would put on a different feeder for bigger birds....

Oh sure. Birds always do that regardless of the feeder. I've even seen them go out of their way to pick out items from a suet cake and drop them. All you can do is try to stock as much of the "favorite food" of the majority of the birds that visit your feeder. That might limit the variety of birds though. My chickadees only seem to want peanuts or corn while the finches eat only millet. Most of the niger seeds and sunflower seeds go over the side but the towhees and squirrels police those up off the ground. All just "part of the show."

I too have lost flowers from time to time. I have used these feeders for years and never thought to even look for replacements. My hummingbirds actually prefer these feeders to the hanging ones. Thanks to Wepna for providing the information that they can be found from my best friend Amazon.com

Hi,I've owned two of these. They're my birds' favorite feeder. I broke the plastic insert when I dropped the feeder.Because the feeder isn't that expensive, I just purchased another one. Don't know if the plastic insert is avail separately, but I would suggest contacting the company. Here's the link to their website: http://www.homesteadbirdfeeders.com/Good luck!

There are wingnuts on the bottom that can removed to disassemble the feeder. Should provide convenient access.

You could try contacting the manufacturer for a replacement piece... http://www.petmate.com/

A squirrel managed to get onto the feeder hanging on the hook from my deck. While attempting to get the seed from the bottom, it knocked the feeder off the hook. It dropped down ten feet and the plastic broke. I am left with the beautiful bronze top and bottom.

Not that I know of. You can always try to get your racket replaced through your local proshop, but that is hit or miss depending on how the racket broke in the first place.

I have not tried that model, but we have others with the yellow flowers. The birds don't seem to have a preference.

Unfortunately when I received this "Hertage Farm birdfeeder" I found it was not from Heritage Farm but made in China. So I sent it back. I called Amazon and told them that it was false advertising to say it was "made in the USA" and made by Heritage Farm when it indeed wasn't. So they assured me they had the correct feeders and it must've been a problem in the warehouse. So they sent me another feeder which again was the one from China and again I send it back. As far as your broken hanger, if it is the real Heritage Farm feeder you can call them directly. They have a website. But if it's one from China I don't think you can do anything. Maybe Amazon will take the whole thing back.
