Q. We recently moved into a new house and there are no trees or shrubs nearby. Our cats love watching the birds. How can we install some bird feeders near the house so the kitties can watch the birds from our bedroom window?
Q. I've just been reading the "Feeding Tips" article on your "Bird Feeders" page. Your article states that birds will not eat wheat. I'm wondering why Bogle Seeds grow and sell wheat.
Q. I'm using your "Squirrel Buster" feeder hung from a shepherd's hook in my back yard. I've noticed that when some of the larger birds (like crows) land on the ring, they are heavy enough to close off access to the feeding chambers. What can I do to fix this so larger birds can also eat the seeds?

A. We sell products which will mitigate this problem. Visit our "Bird Feeders" page to review these products.
A. BE CAUTIOUS WHEN CONSIDERING THIS OPTION! We have a detailed warning outlined on the "Bird Feeders" page. Click on the "Tips on Bird Feeding" link for more information.
A. Yes. This gives you a great opportunity to see the parents bringing their baby birds to the feeding station. You will often see the parent regurgitating undigested seeds into the baby's open beak.
A. Obviously your birds do not like the other seed mix. Remove all of the seed from your feeder and replenish it with Bogle bird seeds and the birds will come back.
A. Go to your local Garden Centre and purchase a shepherd's hook. Your feeder can be hung from this hook and your kitties will enjoy watching the birds. See our "Bird Feeders" page for some photos.
A. We use wheat in our Chicken scratch mixture.
A. The "Squirrel Buster" feeders have provision to adjust the spring tension that allows feeding for heavier birds. Refer to the instruction brochure that came with your feeder to see how this is done. If you have a problem, bring the feeder to us and we will adjust it for you.
