brome 1024 bird feeder: does this feeder come with hardware for hanging from a hook?

The feeder has a simple triangle hook at the top. It slips over a j-hook easily. I have mine hooked on a d-ring like the use for mountain climbing on the end of a rope with a pully so I can get it high off the ground and away from the deer.

No, it does not. It comes with holes but not actual hooks. I received this 12/11/14.

No it doesn't. My husband attached it to a piece of treated lumber that is actually wider than the bird feeder by several inches on each side. He then attached the pole to this wood base. It works perfectly plus the lumber acts as a platform for the birds to stand on. Let me tell you they love it! It is a great feeder.

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.

The short answer is yes you can hang from a wire or chain. Keep in mind that this is a large bird feeder and is quite heavy when filled. The feeder comes with an "S" hook that you can loop from an eye screw on the lid of the feeder. Both the hook and eye screw are substantial in size so it will support the weight of the feeder when filled. I would use the same gage wire or chain as is the eye screw on the lid.

No. I hung my feeder but I seem to remember it had a pole mount. I might add that the little red roof opening where you load the seeds into is very small and partially blocked inside by support structures. I had to cut out two of the four structures to allow seeds to flow in. It is a big feeder and holds a lot of feed.

I'm also using a hook to hang my feeder. You'll need the 'hanger' plus 2 large hair pins (cotter pins) that are supplied with the feeder. To attach the hanger to the assembly, look at the sides of the feeder. Away from the perch, of each side of the feeder, there should be a slot and a hole punched through the side. Insert the loop portion of the hanger through the slot and the stub end of the hanger through the hole. Do this on both sides. Once you have the hanger inserted completely, insert the hair pins through the loop on the hanger, inside the feeder. That's all, folks!

No, it does not come with mounting hardware. I used the set at the following link but there are lighter-duty versions on Amazon. The ones I used are very good, however.

Yes. Mine came with mounting hardware already installed on the chalkboard for hanging.

Yes, there is a vinyl coated wire that you attach and make a hanging cord out of it. You might need to use some needle nosed pliers so you can bend it into a little round hook at the top and also bend it to hook onto the feeder itself. It doesn't end up being very long once you make those little attach circles, maybe only 3-5" long.

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 not come with hardware to pole mount. You would have to do that yourself. Keep in mind that this feeder is not lightweight but if you are crafty it would work...

it does not come with the black hook shown in the photo, but it does come with the gold hook that screws into the feeder

No. You have to tip it to put it on a feeder hook. You could use an S hook to make it easier.

Yes, the picture is the same as what we got, there was no hook but a bar. We use it for our blue and gold macaw. If you have any other questions, let us know.

ours came with 2 screws & a 'coupler' in a little plastic bag attached. A very large sticker on the baffle had directions, including to contact Audubon.org or 800-274-4201 for more information. You definitely need the screws & coupler. They suggest any 1/2" to 3/8" pole or shepherd hook.

You can hang the hook on a pole. We have it hanging on a tree branch. Because it is circular shape the birds access from all sides.
