I'm looking for a house that can be raised &amp; lowered w/ a pulley/wench system. Can this? How do YOU raise &amp; Lower to check on birds?

This model is designed to be used with the telescopic pole which allows you to lower it. If you want a house that lowers with a pulley, we have several models to do that.

The one I use can be found on Amazon It is called "Backyard Boys Woodworking BBW32 Deluxe Oriole Feeder" Click on this link and it will take you there Backyard Boys Woodworking BBW32 Deluxe Oriole FeederI have several varieties of feeders hanging next to each other from a metal tree. The birds just choose what they want. As I also said, I have just an open bowl sitting out on a bench for the ground feeders. Any open shallow container will do.

This house is for nesting.... which I have had birds in it 1/2 hour after I put it up.... think I have had about 3 sets of babies in there so far..... Also have birds using it in the Winter here in Canada

I have several of these raised beds and plan on getting one more; I had no putting them together (and I am no spring chicken!). It was a very easy task. I think "Rogy" is right, and you might have gotten a defective unit. I'd ask for a replacement.

The higher up the better. Got a little stool or ladder? You can tie a piece of tape to any branch....toward the end of the branch where it can be seen by birds and reflected by the sun. Good luck, it works for me.

Comes with everything you need and it's easy to put together & use. My late husband used to love hanging in it in front of the window and wwatch birds. I recommend this lift.

A large bird might be able to. I have an ekkie and a CAG. They do jot climb down to floor but will fly off if they want. Of course thats not alowed. Its great exercise for them. Ive hung lots of toys on top bar and the even climb up and play there as well

I'm gonna say no. I think you would need a thicker (bigger round) pole. My daughter-in-law has a very small birdhouse on it and it's fine, but it's very flimsy.

You can attach the bird house to a post, possible using brackets. The bottom is flat. You may try gluing on a block of wood underneath, with a hole drilled to fit your post.

We have either wrens or finches in our birdhouse. All I know is that we really like it and have had these birds living in there since I put it up. Also have had them living in there all winter long. So far had about 3 sets of babies

Kevin as the ceilings in my house are not high enough to do what you are attempting I do applaud you in your effort I have seen the pulley system from one of these used search "Hunters Specialties Mag Lift System with Gambrel"Hope this helped

The birdhouse fell off & broke, so I don't have it anymore. The hole was pretty small. Had it up for an entire year & no birds visited :( Not super impressed overall.

I'll go out tomorrow and check for you. But now that I know a lot more about chicken care (we knew nothing when I bought this) I would spend the money on building supplies to build a much bigger coop that is tall enough to walk into and gives the hens plenty of room. It takes awhile to build and is very difficult to clean the floor because ya just can't get in due to the size. Also, the ladder up to their coop kept falling and we really had to reconstruct it to keep it from collapsing on the poor dears when they walked on it. This Pawhut is cute as a bug when it's all built but you'll never be able to have more than 4 hens in it, and that's pushing it. Look at some home made chicken enclosures and coops and seriously consider building one yourself that you can walk into and around in and expand your chicken family if you want to. These girls (hens) are pretty addicting and are so fun. I just wish I was not limited to 4. BTW, it definitely looks a lot bigger in the photo than it really is.

The birdhouse has a piece of string coming out of the top to hang it up with. I'm not using mine as a birdhouse as such... I have it filled with rocks to make it heavy and have it sitting on a small stool in one of our flower beds as a decoration.

This will attach a plow/scraper/tiller and other type tools to a square hitch and allow you to raise and lower them manually . Youmust be on the ground beside the device to raise or lower your device. Mine is hooked to a square box hitch on the back of a badboy buggy and works great also works great on my sons 4 wheeler, hopes this helps you

I put a couple in a small barn for bat control only and it worked great for the first year, so we will see about this year... I use to get a few birds flying into the barn, but since you asked, I realized they are not there anymore. Great!! I was concentrating on Bats, so if you want birds to stay, I am not sure it would work, but if you can call the supplier, they are very helpful. Good Luck Duane Mitch
