What is the lowest amt. of liquid they can reach in feeder?

We have three, different sizes, locations and change the liquids regularly so it never gets low.

The hummers here in north Texas can reach the very bottom.We just try not to let it get that low...;)

#8 and if your feeding from another box I would use 75 amp minimum. Comes with 50amp+30amp+20amp=100amps. I think 100amp is the way to go

Well, not sure what you mean by "small", but if you're talking newly-hatched to a few weeks old, we've found this one to work quite well for us over the last couple of years: http://www.amazon.com/Miller-Manufacturing-806RED-1-Quart-Feeder/dp/B001D1KXGQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1417563659&sr=8-2&keywords=chick+feeder Hope this helps answer your question! :)

Check feeder for food clogging. You can also email the company, they are very helpful.

I find that most people try to be conservative on completely filling the bottle. This reduces the vacuum properties this type of feeder needs. When drinking from a full bottle the air you see in the bottle is actually at a much smaller air pressure than the air outside the bottle. So the answer is simple, fill the bottle.

Andy,I do not remember the default feeding setting as my feeder fell in the pond and stopped working a year ago and haven't used it since. But here is the manual and step #5 is the feeding info. Here is the manual - http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Media/PDF/74697-P7000FeederInstructions.pdf. I would suggest putting a waterproof bag around the feeder and securing with tie wire etc just to prevent water getting into the electronics.

I'm not sure, but if you could add liquid through the feed tube to make sure it doesn't overflow.

its the usual 1 to 4 ratio - depending what time of year it is - the directions are on the bottle itself. I've used this all summer long & the birdies love this stuff. No icky sandy stuff stuck on the bottom of the feeder.

Smaller birds can reach the food. Ie grackles and starlings. Blue birds and full grown cardinals had no luck getting into mine. Sqirrels did shake it a wee bit. Better than any feeders except the No-nos.

It would most likely be ok but if it gets to low, you take the chance of burning up the pump. I use bottled water in mine. It might help to have a jug of water next to the dish and your friend could feel how low the water is and add some when needed. I don't have the reservoir.

Hi, Buffy... about two-and-a-half gallons. When filling the upper gravity feed portion, though, make certain there is enough "room" in the lower receptacle for the water. I made the mistake of filling the upper portion when the lower section was only about half full and I had "spillage"...

I have my feeder hanging from a chain with an s-hook attached directly on top of the feeder so I guess mine is hanging pretty level. I don't have problems with it leaking. This humming bird feeder is the best one I have ever used. I have probably had about 10 different types. I guess if you have the feeder sitting on something rather than hanging and it's not perfectly level if would leak.

Carmen,If you mean "direct" as to mean a line with 50# to 60# of pressure then I don't really know what you would need. I am quite certain that these waters need low pressure. You could rig up a tank/bucket that has a float valve from a pressurized source then have the your pipe plumbed from that tank. FYI-A five gallon bucket of water will water 4-5 chickens for about a week. Wish I had a better solution for you.

My feeder is about 3 feet below an overhang on a second story window. Birds come all the time. I have to fill it about once a week. It is by far the best feeder I have used (and I have tried about four different types).
