Perky-Pet Red Hummingbird Nectar Concentrate nourishes and hydrates hummingbirds with a bird-friendly recipe that’s been reverse engineered to mimic the real flower nectar they feed from in nature. It is made with pure cane sugar and uses an all-natural color formula that contains no red dye #40. Hummingbirds won’t be able to resist stopping by for a drink! Because of their high-energy lifestyle, hummingbirds need to eat constantly. Perky-Pet Red Hummingbird Nectar boasts 100% more sucrose (22% total sugar) than standard Perky-Pet nectars to provide hummingbirds with the essential energy they need to thrive. Our sweet hummingbird nectar comes in a stay-flower-fresh aluminum can so it's convenient for you and just right for the hummingbirds. Simply pop open the can, mix the concentrate with equal parts of water, and recycle the empty can. Store any leftover concentrate in the refrigerator for later use. The 12 oz can makes up to 24 oz of hummingbird nectar. Pour the mixed nectar into your favorite hummingbird feeder and enjoy watching your hummingbird visitors. Plus, the unique can design is lightweight and portable to allow for no-spill pouring. The recyclable can also reduces plastic waste by up to 95% compared to standard Perky-Pet nectar bottles.

Would Not Recommend

12 oz makes 24 oz A bottle with a screw on lid would be better. The feeder only held 10 or 11 onces.
