  • Patent number: 6450120
    Abstract: A bird feeder and other associated products having an apertured plastic floor which may be slideably and selectively removable for easy cleaning and replacement. A feed bin is defined by a set of walls, a floor and a roof. When a hinged portion of the roof is opened, at least one section of the walls is slideably removable, and the apertured plastic floor is also slideably removable. The apertured floor, which is manufactured of a perforated plastic, provides a sheet material with a pattern of holes which is strong enough to support the weight of the seed, permits drainage to keep the seed dry, and is capable of withstanding both the avian usage as well as cleaning and maintenance.
