Does this feeder have a hook or something to hang it on the inside of the cage? I don't want to cut a hole in the cage wire...

Yes, it has a hook, but, you have to hang it from outside.I mean you have to have a hole in the cage.

The hooks on either side could be used inside a cage too. I don't know how successful that would be with a rabbit bumping it and playing with it though. I cut holes and hung mine on the outside. Refilling is also easier from the outside. This is a nice, sturdy container, better than some I've seen.

Not always. Definitely better than the round feeders with holes in them. This is higher and the spaces between wires are large enough that you have to be carefut that the chicks can reach the food and don't actually get into the feeder. I use the round feeders with the spaced holes around the feeder and set it up on a small food dish (for dog or cat) that is same size as feeder or tiny bit bigger so elevated it a little. This helps a bit. Need to make sure all the chicks can reach the food. I have seen some people rig up a way to hang a round feeder above the bedding but still need to make sure they can reach it and that it is safe. Hope this helps.

I gave mine on a pole that has four curved hooks that curve out from the pole and under a squirrel hood and it's just fine. Only thing I wasn't that struck on was the filling of it and the sun flower seeds don't seem to come out as well as I think they should. Overall well made and good feeder though.

There's a hole (roughly 1/4-inch) on the bottom of the feeder for mounting. This is a wonderful feeder for hanging, hummingbirds love it.

It has a hanger on top of cage for a hook. You have to order a wall mount of shelf for it. I suggest you not use hook it could fall possibly a shelf would work better..note I removed hook on top and fed light into top and made it light up. You buy this cabinet light at hardware store and it disconnects so cord can feed through thought the hole and hook up the light. I have three finches...love mine. Enjoy

There is no hole opening on the feeder. It can be attached to a pole with included bracket hardware whch will work with a pole anywhere up to maybe 1-1/2" dia. The included bracket will also allow the feeder to be mounted on a wooden post. We hang ours on a shepherds hook type post which works very well also.

Yes you can. It comes with an S hook that fits into the center post when the top is all the way on. We hang it from a hook but you could easily put a chain between the S hook of the feeder and a hook somewhere else.

No-no place to hang a nestbox on the outside of the cage. I use wicker nests inside the cage.

The red cap on the top of the feeder has a hole that you can run a wire through to hang it in a tree or whatever location you choose to hang the feeder. You can also purchase this hanger from Amazon Perky-Pet 67 12-Inch Metal Hook for Bird Feeders

The picture shows the hook from which it can be hung. There is a hole on the bottom that is designed to slip over a post. Without seeing your railing, it is hard to know how you might mount it, but if it is a wooden railing and you don't mind drilling into it, you could mount the feeder on a dowel round inserted into a hole in the railing.

Yes, I use a hook. I also duct taped around the areas on the perches that looked like a bird could be caught. Love the feeder...so do the birds!

yes.. it is just very hard to load the feeder if you did not cut a whole in the cage as the directions state you should do with his type of feeder

Sorry, I can't really help you. I didn't have that problem during the short period of time my feeder was in use. It was destroyed by a hungry bear shortly after I installed it! I guess if there is a space where a small bird could get into the feeder, it's a possibility. It's been quite a while since I had my feeder, so I don't remember much about it. You might want to call the Perky Pets folks -- they might be able to shed some light on the problem. They are an old, well-established bird-feeder company!

There is a hook on both the top and the bottom. You attach the top hook to the place where you used to hang the feeder, then hang the feeder on the bottom hook. It lowers the feeder by about 3 inches. Works like a charm!

bottom of the feeder is a straight pole. You could anchor it in concrete or in the soil

So its obvious from the other answers that the hook is a sturdy black plastic. I will add to this by saying though it seems strong enough, I removed the one on mine & bought a metal carabiner to hang the feeder from. The hole is big enough once removed you could also hang it with a bird feeder hook.

Attach the top hook to a chain or hook so that it's sides aren't touching anything else. Hang feeder from bottom hook.
