nanny,

I'm now using the Stokes Finch Tube Feeder with my mixture of approx. 50/50 thistle and fine sunflower chips in it. The GF love sitting on the perches and munching alot! I've been even thought of getting another one just like it for the GF's!

I also have the same mixture in another Stokes feeder, called the Finch Screen Feeder. The GF's love to cling to it and munch away!

I've seen both of these feeders at my local PetSmart and my local Tractor Supply carries the Stokes brand (and a little cheaper than PetSmart).

My mixture is the Morning Song Finch & Chips bird food and mix it with about 50% of thistle seed into one of those plastic pour and store containers (for bird food). The Finch & Chips mix is fine sunflower chips with thistle seed. You can find it at PetSmart (locally and/or mail order). I use the Garden Song Scoop N' Fill too. (found at TS and mail order thru PetSmart).
