Three-Tube Thistle Bird Feeder for Fresher Seed
It’s all about distribution!Thistle Bird Feeders will attract finches, buntings, pine siskins and others. The great thing about thistle, or nyjer seed is that it doesn’t germinate, so there’s no worries of weeds below the feeder. There are many types of these feeders on the market, but the best feeder is the one you clean and maintain.
The advantage of a triple tube thistle bird feeder is a more even distribution of seed, as opposed to one of the very long tube feeders. With the longer feeders, thistle tends to collect moisture, and spoil at the bottom of the tube. Birds will not eat spoiled food, so it’s wasted seed, and wasted money.
With the tree-tube feeder shown above, you get the advantage of full view of all perches. This innovative design allows you to see all 24 perches at the same time, an incredible sight when it’s completely filled with finches!
