Description

A favorite of almost every backyard feeder bird. They have easy to crack, thin shells and can be offered in a wide variety of feeder types, like platform, tube, and hopper feeders. These seeds also have a high fat content that is perfect for giving birds energy all year long, especially in winter. This Yankee Flipper squirrel-proof feeder is the ultimate feeder for keeping your feathered friends fed, and the furred fiends hungry. Let's talk about the basics first. The sturdy polycarbonate feeding chamber is a whopping 4-3/4 inches in diameter and 21 inches long, giving you a break between refills--and ensuring that squirrels can't hang down from the top to reach seed. The four feeding chambers are easily accessible via the perch ring, and the interior of the chamber is designed to direct seed into the seed ports. Now, for the fun stuff: The birdfeeder features an encased motor and rechargeable (and replaceable) batteries. When you receive the feeder, simply charge the batteries overnight, hang the feeder from its looped bail wire, and prepare to be amazed (and entertained!). The motor is connected to the weight activated perch ring--birds will not set it off, even larger species like woodpeckers and cardinals. But the minute a squirrel hops onto the perch, the motor is triggered and the feeder begins spinning, taking the squirrel for a whirl before it loses its grip and is thrown (gently) from the perch. It's a humanitarian way to deal with persistent squirrels--there are no shocks or poisons to hurt them, simply a wild ride that they won't be inclined to repeat. Birds are free to eat without disruption, and your family will get a kick out of watching squirrels go for their rides. There's a lifetime warranty on the feeder body and a one-year warranty on the motor and battery charger. --Ariel Meadow Stallings

  • Fantastic quality.
Color: Yankee Flipper Style: Yankee Flipper
This is my favorite bird feeder. The birds love this bird feeder. Squirrels do not like it because it turns when they try to get onto it. They have tried unsuccessfully to get onto the feeder and have essentially given up. As a result, the birds are free to use this bird feeder any time they want. The feeder is weatherproof and very sturdy. It also holds a lot of bird seed. It looks great in my backyard. ... show more

  • Finally, one that works!follow up after 5 momths
Color: Yankee Flipper Style: Yankee Flipper
This anti-squirrel feeder is the bomb! It's a quality piece, easy to assemble, easy to clean, and easy to refill. And...it actually works in being squirrel-proof! It works so well that after about a week, the squirrels no longer even try. They just gather the seeds that lay on the ground. It has been such a joy watching the birds come and feed in the mornings and late afternoons. It's become quite the attraction. We now have the neighborhood diner for squirrels. I felt I was taking a small risk as this feeder is not inexpensive. But it works so well and the value is so great, this morning I ordered another one! Dec 2023. We've been using it for nearly six months now and I am more convinced now than ever before. This is an amazing feeder and is worth every penny we spent. The squirrels actually learn to stay away despite their best efforts to get to the seeds. It's easy to full and maintain and seems, except for one minor concern, to be incredibly durable. The battery holds a charge, but the longer we leave it out, the less frequently it needs to be charged because the squirrels learn to stay away. When it does need to be cleaned and charged, it's an easy and quick process. Our feeder area has become an incredible community center for the birds in our area. We spend early mornings and lazy afternoons amazed by the number of birds that show up. Trying to identify them all can be a challenge! One benefit is that, while the perches are better suited for small birds, the seeds that fall to the ground attract larger birds as well. I'll attach a picture of the lid to the feeder. It's made of rugged metal and shows the evidence of some squirrels that managed to get on top and tried to gnaw their way into the seed chamber. This is a well-thought-out design! Our only minor concern is the container for the seed. It is showing a faint crack near the top. I am going to investigate whether replacements are available. It will be a small price to pay for all the enjoyment we get form this feeder. ... show more

  • A solid product - updated again! 5 years later
Color: Yankee Flipper Style: Yankee Flipper
The media could not be loaded. Video: the Flipper in action! No squirrels got hurt in the process of making the video. :) Initial review from 2010: Works well so far - it's been outside since I got it in July and the birds love it. The squirrels were at first wary and then they got a little daring - and got flung gently away. I don't get a huge variety of birds (it's winter now so that has something to do with it) and my local birdfeed store guy told me that cardinals can't clutch the ring perch. It seems to be true - the cardinals will eat from the other (bar type perch instead of ring perch) feeder but not this one. It does seem tough and well made, extremely easy to fill, and it looks absolutely brand-new although it has been out there in the elements feeding a ton of birds for about six months now. I am glad I bought this, although it is pricey! and I would buy it again. It would make a great present for anyone you know who has a regular feeder and is sick of battling the squirrels. By the way, I spill some seed on the ground for the squirrels - I am not trying to starve them but I don't want them scaring away the birds. UPDATE to review (September 2012): Okay, 3 years later and this thing is going strong. The squirrels have been able to chew a little bit into the paint on the metal top (the damage is not disfiguring, or noticeable from a normal distance) - otherwise this has held up really well, and it's been out there 24 hours a day for over three years now in all weather. I have only had to recharge it once or twice a year (I bring it in overnight and charge with the AC adaptor) - you can tell when it needs charging when you catch the squirrels lying in the perch ring and gorging themselves :) I have had cardinals, house finches, very pretty goldfinches, and a few red-bellied woodpeckers. Summary - this was a really satisfying purchase and I recommend it. If I need another feeder I will only buy Droll Yankee = every other feeder I have ever used has fed the squirrels and not the birds. UPDATE to review (July 2015): 5 years of gentle squirrel deterring and it's still working well! It's a bit scarred and scraped up by determined and toothy squirrels, but it works flawlessly. It still needs to be charged only maybe twice or three times a year (as above, I can tell it needs a charge when you see a squirrel lolling in the ring at the bottom gorging LOL - if you pay more attention than I do, you may notice that it needs a charge before the situation gets to that). I have seen the new version of the Flipper, and they have added a thingy at the bottom of the unit so that a clear plastic tray can be added very easily to catch the sunflower seed hulls. I would consider buying another just so I can use one of those with it. Those hulls make a terrible mess. So again - what a terrific purchase. Really, really happy with it. I am bumping my rating from four to five stars bcs seriously? What else works this well for this long without issues? Five stars it is! ... show more

  • The best feeder ever!
Color: Yankee Flipper Style: Yankee Flipper
My third Droll Yankees flipper. Always fun to watch the squirrels get flipped off although they have learned they can ride the feeder and have it fling seeds while they do. These feeders last a long time (5-6 years) and the birds love it. Highly recommended.

  • The Best Bird Feeder
Color: Yankee Flipper Style: Yankee Flipper
My neighbor got one of these birdfeeders for Christmas. After watching the squirrels empty my traditional birdfeeder time and time again this spring, I decided to take the plunge and make this purchase. I have to say it is expensive but you get what you pay for. This works. The squirrels cannot get to the seed and believe me they have tried. The birds are able to use the feeder with no issues and there are always a few of them perched at their respective holes munching away. The squirrels and chipmunks mainly stay below and eat with the birds drop. The birdseed last much longer. Sometimes the squirrels will get on top and try their hardest to remove the cover, and then try to slide down the unit, but are unsuccessful. If a very large Bluejay or a large dove tries to use it, it has triggered it for a 1/4 spin at times but they remain on. Easy to fill, charge so far lasting 3weeks, holds a good amount of seed. ... show more
