Henry Bell Heavy Duty Fat Ball Feeder

Fat balls lose most of their point once they turn soggy, so a feeder that lets water pool underneath one is working against the thing it was bought to hold. Henry Bell's answer is drainage built into the base itself, rather than relying on the ball drying out between rains.

It is made of aluminium and finished in black, with a single all-in-one base that gives birds more room to perch while catching the debris that falls as they feed - useful for keeping the ground beneath the feeder tidier. A broad umbrella top sits over the whole thing to help keep the feed itself in better condition, and Henry Bell say it is easy to clean and refill.

On capacity. Henry Bell do not publish dimensions or a weight for this feeder, so we cannot tell you how large the base is or how many fat balls it holds at once - worth bearing in mind if you're planning to feed more than one bird at a time.

Who it's for: garden bird feeders who have had fat balls turn to mush after rain, and who want a feeder built with drainage rather than relying on a sheltered spot to keep it dry.
