I deleted my post because now I have lost the main part of the feeder so don't need any parts. Just a new feeder.

Well for anyone that is looking for the perky pet replacement yellow button flowers or the yellow bee guards. I just saw them at one of the locl Wal Mart stores. I also saw a new kind of 'Bee guard. I am not sure how they work but they appear to be a red soft rubbery type of material and it looks like you insert it into the feeder port. I saw these at a local garden center but didn't have time to really check them out close. Next time that I go over there I will look closer.

Although it's buried on their website (http://www.birdfeeders.com) Perky-pet offers replacement parts for a great many of their feeders, including perches, caps, bottles, bases, and so forth.

The URL to go directly to the "parts" page is

great find Kevin! Thanks for posting it. I can see some parts that can be adapted to other feeders besides what is listed.

I will try to stop by the garden center this week and see what brand the rubbery inserts are. I thought they were Perky Pet but couldn't find them online.

I found what I had lost. I have learned that when I lose something given time it will show up because as I rule I don't throw things away.

Anyway I have one of those Opus Hummingbird Ballet feeders with three little glass globes. I broke one of the globes and have been trying to find a replacement for a couple of years. I keep hitting a dead end. I hated not to use the frame since it was pretty and I thought it was a waste to just put it up. I got the idea to hang three of the little $.97 feeders I bought at Wal-Mat where the globes were supposed to be. I did just that thing yesterday. Not as pretty as the globes but it works.[linked image]

that is a great idea and since the feeders are small they make a perfect replacement!

Speaking of the little WM feeders. Has anyone seen them this year at WalMart? Neither one of our stores in my ara have them....so far
