Henry Bell Heritage Fat Ball Feeder

Henry Bell Heritage Fat Ball Feeder – 32cm

This is the full-size Heritage fat ball feeder rather than the Everyday version: 32cm tall and holding five fat balls, which at Henry Bell's own 80g a ball is 400g of feed in one loading. In a cold snap that is the difference between refilling every other day and refilling twice a week.

The body is aluminium in Henry Bell's antique gold and bronze — light, corrosion-resistant, and one of the few feeder finishes that looks better after a season outdoors than a painted steel one does. It is the Heritage collection's main suet point, sized to sit alongside the 32cm Heritage seed and peanut feeders on the same station.

Performance & Benefits

• Holds five fat balls — 400g of feed at Henry Bell's stated 80g a ball.
• 32cm tall, the full Heritage size rather than the compact Everyday one.
• Aluminium: light, strong and corrosion-resistant, so it will not rust in wet weather.
• Antique gold and bronze finish, matched to the Heritage seed, peanut and sunflower feeders.
• Large capacity means fewer refills through the weeks when it matters most.
• Hangs from a feeding station, a bird table or a hook on a branch.

Suitable For

• Henry Bell fat balls and suet balls.
• Great tits, blue tits, coal tits, long-tailed tits, dunnocks, nuthatches, starlings and robins.
• Busy gardens where a small fat ball feeder empties in a day.
• Feeding stations already carrying the 32cm Heritage seed or peanut feeders.
• More capacity than a quiet garden needs — the Heritage Everyday Fat Ball Feeder is the smaller option.

How to Use

• Open the lid, load up to five fat balls and close it before hanging.
• Hang from a feeding station arm, bird table or branch hook, near enough to cover for birds to retreat.
• Clear crumbs from the base at each refill.
• Wash weekly in warm water with a bird-safe hygiene product and dry fully before reloading.
• In a wet spell, load fewer balls and refill more often so none sits damp for days.
