Q: Got the general store store hopper for mothers day. The only problem I see is that the birds are having problems with where to stand to feed. The platform is rather small. Any suggestions?
3 years ago1 Answer
- A: Thank you for your inquiry. Typically birds do not have a difficult time standing and feeding from the feeding tray of the feeder. A larger base would not be protected by the rooftop and the seed would be overly exposed to rain. It may be that they may be hesitant to use a new feeder, which is common and does take some time. Here are some tips to assist with introducing a new feeder: 1. Spread a little seed on the ground beneath the feeder as well as on top of the feeder, if able. Birds find food by sight, so spreading some food might aid birds in finding your feeder. 2. If it's a new type of feeder for your birds, hang it in a spot where you've had a feeder before. Birds aren't too dissimilar from us: sometimes it takes a while to get used to new things. 3. Place feeders within 15 feet or so of a place that birds can quickly fly to when escaping other flying predators, like hawks. 4. Place feeders in a safe place, not right above places where ground predators, like cats, might hide. 5. Add a nearby birdbath to help birds notice and visit a new feeder. A bath with moving water will be the most effective at catching birds’ attention. 6. Use quality food. A new feeder filled with seed that is old and stale, will not attract birds. With birds, it's all about energy in and energy out. A low-quality seed that requires more energy to find and eat is just not worth the bird’s efforts. 7. Be patient. It takes time for birds to become accustomed to a new feeder and to visit it regularly. Patience is essential when using a new bird feeder, but by taking proper steps to make the feeder attractive to the birds, you will soon be refilling it frequently.3 years agoHelpful?
Q: How do I open to clean inside of feeder?
5 years ago1 Answer
- A: Thank you for reaching out to us. The base on the Village Collection feeders is removable. The best way to do this is to lay it on it's side and note where the colored tabs are on the bottom side of the feeder. Then, use the palm of your hand to strike the base so that tabs slip to the opposite side of the slot, allowing the base to be removed. Alternatively, an easier way to clean the feeder would be to remove the chimney from the top of the feeder and insert a garden hose through the opening.5 years agoHelpful?

Hard to fill

This thing is a nightmare to fill. It's cute but I absolutely won't buy anything else from this brand.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review about the General Store feeder. We are sorry to hear that you are having trouble filling the feeder. To fill the feeder you want to simply remove the chimney and fill the feeder with seed. We do manufacture a feeder scoop that is designed to fill our village collection feeders. Please email us customerservcie@northstatesind.com and we can gladly assist you.

Cap was broke couldn’t use
5 months ago
I only gave this a 1 star due to the fact I was not able to actually try it. I was super excited to receive this bird feeder. Yet I disappointed when I unpackaged it. The opening cap was broke in half. So no way to keep the food dry if I filled it. I contacted influencer twice regarding this issue with NO response back!!!!!!Which I am very frustrated and dissatisfied with. I would have loved to of been able to try this bird feeder.

Easy fill & easy clean
5 months ago
Given that its still winter with subzero temps, high winds, and freezing rain on and off, I havent been able to put this out for birds yet. So I will update this spring.
This birdhouse is adorable. I love they had themed ones and I had to have the general store. Can be hung or mounted on a pole. Holds up to 6.5lbs of seed that can be monitored with the clear windows. The chimney lifts off for easy fill, and the tray comes off easily for cleaning.
Im really looking forward to using this in the spring!

Beautiful but badly designed for birds
6 months ago
I have to start with how beautiful this feeder is. The details are crisp and attractive. It really looks good. However, there are numerous functionality issues.
Filling the feeder for the first time, halfway full with black oil sunflower seeds, the whole thing nearly fell apart. It is standing outside on our feeder pole and I do not know what is keeping it together.
Also, it is hard to fill. You lift off the roof piece but the opening is small enough that you spill a lot of seed unless you use a funnel.
Additionally, the ledge is too small/narrow for most birds except the little ones. Our red-winged blackbirds made a go of it but our Cardinals couldn't really land.
I wouldn't want someone to buy this feeder, not get a lot of birds, and think it was their own fault.
5 stars for beauty.
1 star for functionality.
