Fill it with a small handful of black-oil sunflower seed every morning, and tip out old seed after a rain. This is a small feeder on purpose — it is made for little birds, not for a whole flock. Every piece is finished by hand, so small differences are normal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- 11 SPECS --\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"prod-h\"\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"prod-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContents\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 ballerina feeder dish with 3 gold-tone chains and clip hook\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast resin, hand-sanded and hand-painted; metal chains\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIvory with brown hair bun and gold-tone chains\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDish about 4.7 in (12 cm) across · figure 5.6 in (14.3 cm) tall · about 12 in (30 cm) with chains\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHolds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAbout ½ cup of seed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBest for\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChickadees, finches, wrens, juncos and other small songbirds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHanging\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutdoors from a branch, porch hook or eave — ideally under cover\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCare\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRinse with warm water; tip out wet seed after rain\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade by\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVivienne Ballard, Asheville, North Carolina — last season, 212 remaining\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade so far\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAbout 2,600 since 2011\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"Handmade by Vivienne Ballard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51318658924769,"sku":"CF-BBF-US","price":35.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0786\/5234\/2497\/files\/bbf-gal1-hero.jpg?v=1793811365","url":"https:\/\/craft-folk.com\/products\/viviennes-small-bird-ballerina-feeder","provider":"CRAFTFOLK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
