Home Made Hummingbird Food
If you want to mix your own nectar mixture this one has been found to be a favorite of feeding Humming Bird. Take 1 part cane sugar, 4 parts water, and boil together for 1 to 2 minutes so as to kill bacteria and slow down spoilage. You can add red food coloring to help attract the Hummingbirds to your feeder, however I do not recommend it.Cool the mixture and store in the refrigerator until you are ready to begin feeding them. Keep the mixture in your feeder no longer than two weeks. Store in refrigerator for no more than two weeks. If you leave the Oriel nectar mixture out, use it within a week so you will have a week of food in the Oriel feeder before you need to change it.
In some
areas you may need a feeder that has bee and
ant guards so look for ones that have them or add bee
guard and ant guards to
your new or existing Humming Bird feeder or select a Perky Pet Humming
Bird Feeder that has one..
Now sit back and watch these miniature helicopter in your backyard or patio.
