RE: Feeder Hung from Tree in Wood??
All my feeders hang from trees. Mine are10gallon trash cans with the lids held on with two screws. Next timei am at one of the places will get a photo. You've got to get innovative to keep the coons off the tops of the feeder. Hang it from a long cable, about 3-4 feet.
Thefeeder unit should be about 5-6 feet off the ground to keep deer from butting the unit to knock the feed out. Got to put chicken wire around the bottom of the containerand extend itbelow the control unit in order to keep the birds out. Had a problem with the crows and jays flying into thefeeder unitand knocking the corn out:Thechicken wire takes care of that problem.
