Does this dome work on a shepherd's hook?

I used it to protect my bird feeder from squirrels - it has worked perfectly. I don't know why it could not be hung from a sheherd's hook.

It does, if the hook is not big enough, which happened to me all you need to do is get a twist tie and make it into a loop, then put the loop twist tie on the hook and hang it that way. Is really durable hasn't left the shepherd's hook or fallen off at any time even when squirrels try to get at the seed anyways.

Yes it does. I had it on one for a bit but moved it to a place with better visibility.

Yes it does. Sometimes you may have to open the dome hook a lttle especially if you have a square shepherds hook.

It probably doesn't matter. As long as it will fit the pole you want to attach it too. Mine are about 3-1/2 feet off the ground on shepherds hooks. Recently a squirrel has managed to leap straight up from the ground to grab onto the bottom of my bird feeder and defeat the anti-squirrel ring altogether. I've seen him do this several times. I've looked for taller shepherds hooks, but no one appears to make anything taller.

The dome is really used to be hung from above and a feeder below. There are other products that can be used on a pole to stop any rodents from climbing

I don't really remember because I gave this as a gift; however, she hung it immediately on a shepard's hook, so it must have had a loop for hanging.

The NATORPEDO is designed to work on a birdpole - not sure how functional it would be for a bird feeder on a wire. I have other feeders with a dome over the top and that works pretty well. If you use the largest diameter dome with your feeder underneath, it will keep the seeds dry from bad weather (rain, snow, etc) keep out the Starlings (they don't like to go under it) ... and the squirrels don't seem to be able to hang on to reach under to grab the feeder. The dome I use is the 'Aspects 182 Super Dome.' It's 18" in diameter and works great!

Possibly could be. Might be a little difficult because it has a cone shaped bottom. We have ours hung from a shepherds hook. It is a great bird feeder and is a good price.

It would, measure the width of the roof, and see if the bar is small enough to fit. But this bar is a stick bar, and if it is not flat on all four edges, it wont stick all the way. I had to lock it in place with my snowboard rack so it doesnt fly away. Also if there is any curve on the roof of your rig, it wont fit correctly. Hope it helps

Hi..maybe not..depending on diameter of the dome. It could work if you hung it a bit lower like from a chain. If your deck is high enough off the ground it would still be hard for them to get to. We use ours for the suet feeder..mostly to keep the crafty raccoons from getting at it, and so far it's working :-)

Both ERVA(http://www.naturehouseinc.com/) and Droll Yankees make excellent shepard's hooks for hanging feeders. When full of seed, this feeder does get quite heavy. I will fill the dome about 1/2 full to keep the weight down.

Yes, the hook comes in two pieces and you can install a baffle when assembling the shepherd hook or remove the top later to install it at a later date (the baffle rests on a bracket that is clamped to the pole).

You can hook it on to any type of fitting. As long as there is some clearance. I do use three types of Aspects domes. The Aspect products are the best.

Yes. Its large enough and the dome piece is able to move from side to side. Love it.

That depends on the mounting bracket you use, but the spalding 316 mount has hardware for round, square, and roof/wall mounting. Mine is mounted on a round pole.

I have ours hanging on a shepherd's Hook so I don't really know how it will hold up with wind

No, it comes without hardware for pole mounting, so you would need to get separate hardware and do that yourself. It definitely would work better on a pole, as I have it on a heavy duty shepherd's hook and it still, when filled, can bend it. This is a big bruiser of a bird feeder. It's well made, but it's not light. It has small openings to prevent critters from running rampant, but I agree with another writer who said to use with a baggle. Squirrels still can get their greedy paws in and scoop out seed.

It most surely does. U have to get a nice set of dove mount rings though, because it cones with weaver/picatanny rings.

Mary,I bought this dome some time ago and don't remember it coming with hooks. I used it to over a thistle seed feeder and attached the dome to it. It really worked well without the hooks -even in heavy snow. Hope that this helped.
