Rain & Snow
We consider Rollerfeeder a rain proof bird feeder, the roof angle prevents all regular rain and it is effective under most stormy conditions. The benefit is the rain prevention feature is built-in and does not require an overhead dome which can cost $20-$30 or more.- Rollerfeeder will prevent snow in many conditions especially if the snow is dry and fluffy, we would consider Rollerfeeder snow resistant but not snow proof – see next comment.
- Heavy Wet Snow 1: For wet heavy snow, if the snow is deep and heavy enough, the weight of the snow will turn the feeder since the snow is heavier than the counterbalance weight at the bottom of the feeder. If this condition occurs simply wipe the snow off with a broom or your hand and it will correct itself. Try to keep ahead of the snow build-up if you can.
- Heavy Wet Snow 2: If you live in an area where heavy wet snow occurs often, the best defense is a cover above or hang in an area that provides natural cover, or under an overhang etc.
