I too, fell for this feeder from Walmart.
First off, the only metal on the whole thing is the hanger at the top. The bottom is plastic. The bottom is tapered and does need to be released of air a few times a day. Also, it does leak when the pressure gets to high. (from the heat of the sun)
This is, by far, the worst feeder I have ever bought. Just my honest opinion.
I have many many hummingbirds daily where I live. 2 to 3 cups of necter a day!
This feeder is no good.
Choose a flat bottom feeder with a glass container. These types are so much better.

I’ve got one of these wine bottle feeders, but for some reason the humming birds can’t get the liquid out of it. I filled it in early spring and the mixture went milky and filled up with ants. It was still full in May. So, I cleaned it out and tried new stuff, same result. Three days ago I cleaned it filled it this time with just 2 cups of syrup. I’m using the same recipe I always do. So today I tried to draw some liquid out with my husbands insulin syringes. Nothing! The needle part is 1/2 an inch long. The liquid is not coming up to the surface.
Is this my problem? Are hummingbird beaks longer than this? Anyone else with this problem?

I had one of these feeders but it broke and now my Wal-Mart doesn’t have anymore. Can anyone help me find another one?

It really does look like a wine bottle! Very nice – I’ll have to look for one.

We have no Walmarts on the Sunshine Coast, but I’m going to get my sister to check the one in her town…this is a must-have feeder and thanks for posting the info about it.

I love the hummingbird feeder and if our Walmart ever opens, will certainly look for one.

Oh I love it! My Mom bought me a lantern-shaped, stained-glass looking hummingbird feeder for Mother’s Day. I put it up the other day and I am praying to see a hummingbird! I have never seen one in my life!
