What are the dimensions of the feeder?
The feeder measures 14 x 22 cm.
How often should I clean the feeder?
It is recommended to clean the feeder at least once a month, or more frequently if you notice mold or wet food inside.
Can it be mounted on a wall?

Troubleshooting
Feeder swinging too much in the wind
Use a shorter hanging chain or secure the bottom of the feeder to a light secondary hook if available.
Seed or nuts getting stuck inside
Ensure that the pieces of food used are not too large to pass through the feeding apertures; gently shake the unit if bridging occurs.
Moisture inside the feeder
Check that the lid is fully seated and consider moving the feeder to a more protected area under a tree canopy.
