Perky-Pet 209B “Our Best” Glass Hummingbird Feeder
Hovering and buzzing about, the delightful hummingbird is a mesmerizing sight to behold. Easily attract hummingbirds to your yard with the Perky-Pet “Our Best” Glass Hummingbird Feeder. This feeder promises hours of hummingbird-watching pleasure–perfect for bird lovers of all ages.
30-Ounce Capacity & 6 Feeding Stations
Holding up to 30 ounces of nectar at a time, this hummingbird feeder features a durable transparent glass bottle with a wide mouth opening for easy filling and cleaning. Its bright-red plastic top and base offer visual appeal while quickly catching the attention of hummingbirds. The feeder’s welcoming design also includes six feeding stations, each with a built-in, bright-yellow, flower-shaped bee guard to protect the nectar supply. Even more, the feeder comes with a circular perch all the way around the base of the feeder for the birds to rest upon, along with a built-in ant moat on the very top of the feeder (simply fill with water to keep the ants away).
Suggested Placement
Use the included hanging hook to hang the hummingbird feeder near a porch, deck, patio, or a window overlooking the garden. An ideal location not only provides a great view, but is also hummingbird friendly. Hummingbirds prefer an open space, so they can easily move from one feeding port to the next. They also like to be near flowers and in a location that gets both sun and partial shade during the day. A hummingbird-friendly location will be at least 15-20 feet away from windows and 10-15 feet away from nearby coverage, like a shrub, so they feel safe and protected from predators.
Easy to Clean
Keep the feeder clean and filled with fresh nectar to ensure return visits from happy hummingbirds. In addition to its wide mouth opening, the hummingbird feeder’s base comes apart to ensure convenient access and thorough cleaning. Perky-Pet recommends cleaning the hummingbird feeder at least twice a week, more often in very warm climates or seasons.

No Ants!—with this one. ** Changing my rating…sad! This has been a great year for the hummers in our yard. Have two nests, each with two eggs and a source of pleasure just watching. The one feeder that we have had just doesn’t hold enough and a royal pain to clean. So glad we were able to get this—it holds plenty of our “nectar” and refills a lot less often, very easy to clean. A great feature is the “ant moat” The top of the feeder has a indentation that you fill with a bit of water, preventing the ants from stealing the nectar….and…
MAJOR LEAKING! Horrible design! I’ve been using the original Perky Pet Model 209 for years with great success. I wanted to add a second one to my garden, and got really excited when I saw the new 209B model. The improvements looked like a huge plus, mainly the larger opening and the easy-open base for cleaning. Unfortunately, the latter proved to be a huge problem. The upper piece of the plastic bottom does not screw or snap on, hence, there is no seal of any kind. The top portion of the base rests loosely over the bottom…
BEST HUMMINGBIRD FEEDER! I’ve fed wild birds most of my adult life. We love to see a flurry of wings and hear the varied birdsongs around our patio..
