Larry, what have you got in that feeder?
Is it that ready made nectar gunk?
If so it is cheaper to make a 1:4 sugar water solution for your feeders-especially if you want to keep all those hummers happy and give them each a personal feeder to claim.
I have to confess that 5 of my 7 hummer feeders that are constantly fought over by my regular four bullies are the 97cent Walmart variety and easy to fill and change because they are small.
And yes they like the Pavonia, Firebush and Bauhinia in the yard too.
