Making Homemade Bird Feeders  email this discussion to a friend?

We make most of our bird feeders ourselves or I should say, my husband does. He is very talented. There are so many things you can use to make bird feeders with from scrap lumber to water pipes and everything in between. I personally think homemade feeders are more durable as well as very attractive.

Do you feed the birds?
Do you make your own feeders or do you purchase them?

Villa what do you feed your birds with, I used to feed the birds in the park my left over bread but I have been told this is not good for the birds...I would hate to do damage to the birds...

I like the ones kids make in the winter. Where you tie a pipe cleaner to a pine cone,coat it in peanut butter and then roll in birdseed.

I have seen bird feeders made from liquid soap jugs, large milk jugs, coffee cans and of course wooden ones. I bought two bird feeders this year because I'm not at all talented and I wouldn't know what to do. I'd love to have some home made ones I think they are very unique. The ones I bought are just cheap plastic ones.

I purchase them. My husband is a very handy man and I have no doubt he could make a bird feeder very easily. But as he builds for a living, I wouldn't want to put him out and make him build a feeder, so I just purchase them instead. happy

Hello, How are you. Its nice seeing you. I imagine you have been busy, I have too. I am glad that you stop in every now and then and check in. As for your question, I just throw bread and crackers stuff like that out. I have too many cats and also there are lots of stray cats in the neighborhood. I would feel terrible if my kitties got the birds. plus with feeding so many cats, they keep me broke. They sort of adopted me, hehe.
