## Description

With such a high-energy lifestyle, hummingbirds need to eat constantly. Perky-Pet Original Red Instant Hummingbird Nectar Concentrate is made of 100% sucrose, so your hummingbirds get just the essential energy they need to thrive. Hummingbirds easily digest sucrose, so the energy is delivered faster than artificial nectar mixtures This concentrate makes feeding humming birds simple, just add water to the powder to create your desired amount of nectar. The 2 lb bag makes up to 192 ounces of hummingbird nectar. There’s no need to boil it, and our nectar requires no refrigeration, making storage a breeze In addition, this nectar features a bold red color that mimics the vibrantly colored flowers that hummingbirds imbibe from in nature. They won’t be able to resist stopping by your yard for a drink.

Review: Easy and effective - Hummingbirds love it! They've pretty consistently come and drained the feeders the last couple years. Easy to mix and use.
Review: Excellent product - Mixes in easily! I love explaining to all the local “experts” who say the color is toxic that I comes from carrots and flower blossoms

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes it red? I have heard that when making your own hummingbird nectar, that you should forego putting food coloring in it.**
A: Please don't buy anything with artificial red color.  The Audubon Society recommends making your own with regular sugar.  4 parts water to 1 part sugar. (1/4 cup sugar to 1 cup boiling water).

**Q: Does this product have expiration date?**
A: I don't know about an expiration date.  I dumped it in a baggie and labeled it.  However I will let you know that I didn't get any hummingbirds with this mixture but after making my own I had quite a few everyday.  1 cup sugar to 4 cups water, bring to boil for 2 minutes and then let cool.  Store leftovers in the refrigerator.  I just adjusted the quantities and made enough for 2 feeders.

**Q: Can this be used for orioles too?**
A: We recommend our oriole nectar to attract them as it has a slightly citrus flavor which they enjoy.

**Q: Which information is correct? 100% sucrose yet obviously contains a dye additive. Requires refrigeration/doesn’t require refrigeration.**
A: I don't know about the sucrose/dye situation, but my hummers love it. I'm guessing the mix is all sucrose, and then the dye.  It does not require refrigeration when dry, before mixing with water for pouring into the feeder.  If you were to mix in advance, it will require refrigeration.
