Birds Choice Single Cake Tail Prop Suet Bird Feeder 12" Taupe & Green: UV-Resistant, Weather-Resistant, No Assembly Required

I bought this in hopes that our neighborhood pileated woodpecker will come by. I haven't seen him but the other woodpeckers love it. It is sturdy and easy to fill and hang. Highly recommended.

Nicely contstructed but no one came. No birds on the suet.

Its a great product. It might be make even more attractive by adding a little coler, possibly a forest green top. Also it might be great to have the top be peaked, rather than flat.

Yes, I use suet feeders year round and I love the two cakes feeder best. I serve the regulars and have seen some very small birds now. It's a handsome feeder, easy to load and hang, very popular right now.

It took a little while for the birds to use it. They probably never seen a tail prop before. Woodpeckers are more steady feeding from this than the regular suet feeders.

The squirrels are eating the plastic surrounding the wire cage. Do you make a different product that perhaps the squirrels won’t destroy. We love the item we purchased because he pileated woodpeckers love it, but the squirrels have destroyed this one in a matter of weeks

Great buy. Exactly as described. Can't wait to use it.

Bought this feeder to replace my boring metal cage feeder. Excellent quality and weight. Like the green color as it matches my other feeders. Easy to load. Highly recommend!

Both Downy and Red-bellied woodpeckers love visiting this feeder.

Works great! Good value. The birds seem to love it.

Squirrels destroyed it in 3 weeks. My last one in the same spot lasted years. This is garbage.

High quality double block suet feeder keeps me from having to refill very often. Woodpeckers love it! Tail prop made all the difference for attracting our woodpeckers.

It's a beautiful color but the local woodpecker managed to peck away at the plastic sides in a few days, leaving red pellets on the ground (which are not good if accidentally ingested by other creatures). I suggest getting a suet feeder where the cage is all metal.

What a great suet feeder….It was only up for a few minutes before it was visited…..The recycled material is great! It is so sturdy. Happy….Happy….Happy!!!!

Read this particularly if you hate squirrels: I bought this for the squirrels, thinking the wood prop might help keep the feeder from spinning so much, and the larger grid would be easier for them. I hung it on my porch rail to discourage them hopping up to the suet I put up for birds. Mostly I am afraid they will one day knock one down and get injured. The prop does stabilize the feeder and seems to be a great solution. Most squirrel hate is driven by marketing to get you to buy the much more expensive squirrel defeating feeders. They advertise squirrels as your and your bird's nemesis. Don't fall for that con. In reality, there is no member of wildlife that is more helpful to humans. I know squirrels. I've studied them, rehabilitated them, learned their language and habits and most important to you, learned how clean, disease free and beneficial they are to humans. They are nature's arborists, grooming trees and feeding off everything that is harmful to them. Those clever little hands are designed to not only climb, but also to clean fungus, lichen, termites, and other parasites off of and out from under bark. And when you see them burying nuts, watch them. They don't bury to eat later. They are planting those nuts. How can you tell? They hold an acorn between stumpy thumbs, and rotate it with long and nimble fingers, sniffing it for freshness and viability, and to find the dorsal end, which they then chew off to stimulate germination. And then dig a hole and bury it. For 30 years, I've fed them from the same bird and squirrel friendly feeders and never had a single incident where squirrels drove birds off. or hogged all the food. Nor do they destroy feeders unless you try to out-ummm-squirrel them. Did you know they fall right under primates on the evolutionary scale? they are advanced in intelligence, social skills and yes, ethics and empathy. When I was given an orphaned squirrel to bottle feed, I went searching for information on them. It was no small feat. I discovered science overlooks common woodland animals and the only people who have studied squirrels are arborists. . Squirrels and opossum (your ground level equivalent of squirrels) are completely odorless. If you have an animal in your attic and can smell it or see their waste - those are not your problem animals - most likely it's mice or rats. If their territory is threatened and especially if they have babies, they will sometimes get into a house but rarely do damage. So I reward mine by providing them with suet and bird seed, as well as non sugary cereals and other natural foods that have gotten pantry moths - things I'd be tossing out otherwise. If they don't eat them, they get moved to the other side of the house for my crows, who are too shy to share feeders, but love cereal, cat and dog food and peanuts.

Really well made, easy to fill and hang. The Brazilian walnut wood tone is not too dark and the wood grain pattern is very attractive.

This is the second one I have put up. It took the Pileated woodpecker a while to move to it, but now she loves it. The smaller woodpeckers also love it.

the woodpeckers are happy. this product lasts along time. very well made. i love that it is made in USA THANK YOU

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I hung this from a pole in my house and I love the look of it. Not sure if my birds really care for it. I hate that I have to buy a thing of suet for it all the time. Suet seems more epensive in the long run than just buying bird seed. Also my birds don't seem to care for it that much.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quality product from design to materials to functionality! I have many bird feeders at my home and I can say this is one of my favorites! I never realized woodpeckers need a place to rest their tails to comfortably eat and this makes them stay and enjoy the suet cakes much longer! It is made from recycled plastic which is not only a great use of plastic but also extremely durable! So many different birds love this feeder because it is sturdy and allows for multiple birds to dine on either side at once! I will definitely look for more products from this brand to add to my collection!
