Attract the Chickadee

Attract the friendly little chickadee to nest in your yard with BetterBird's Chickadee Birdhouse.

Solid Western Red Cedar Construction

Black Capped Chickadee This birdhouse is made with premium cedar. Cedar has excellent insulating properties and is naturally durable. It is also resistant to moisture, decay and insect damage. It has a pleasant and unmistakeable aroma.  Unfinished cedar has a richly textured grain with colors ranging from mellow ambers, reddish cinnamons and rich sienna browns.  These features make each cedar product unique and one of a kind. 

Designed Specifically for the Chickadee

All of BetterBird's products are designed for certain bird types. This birdhouse is designed for the chickadee.  It has 1-1/8” diameter hole for the chickadee to enter the birdhouse and nest. The 1-1/8" hole  is too small for predators including the starling and sparrow, so they cannot approach the nest.  The sloped roof with the overhang, combined with the predator guard, will minimize predators by keeping out the arm of raccoons, cats and squirrels.

Where To Hang The Birdhouse

Ideally, it should be hung in a partially shaded area that does not have too much activity.  In a hot environment, the opening should be facing North or East which will help to minimize the afternoon heat. 

It should be hung between 6 and 15 feet above ground.

Birdhouse Will Protect the Birds' Eggs

This model has two ventilation holes that will help regulate the temperature inside. The sloped roof, the overhang, and the drainage slots will protect the birds' eggs and nest by preventing water from pooling on the bottom. The grooved slots on the inside of the entrance will make it easier for the nestlings to climb out when the time comes.

Benefit of the Predator Guard 

This model includes a predator guard on the entrance of the house.  The predator guard will offer much needed protection for the nest by protecting the baby birds and eggs.  It will keep raccoons, squirrels and predatory birds away from the nest.

Easy to Clean

When it comes time to clean it out, our birdhouses are designed for easy access.  Simply turn the latch and the front cover will open to remove the old nest.

Natural Design  

Birdhouses should be designed to attract certain types of birds.  This design is simple, yet still has all of the natural features of  beautiful cedar.  It will blend into any environment and provide the perfect environment for the chickadee to nest.  


Built to Last

BetterBirds assembles products with screws to keep them strong.  With the solid construction and use of premium cedar, BetterBird's birdhouses are constructed to last for years!

Beautiful Appearance  

As an added bonus, this birdhouse also includes 4 brass screws on the roof. The brass screws not only provide additional charm to the overall appearance, but will also prevent rusting on the most vulnerable part of the birdhouse.  

Each Birdhouse is Unique

Please note that when you order a hand crafted cedar birdhouse from BetterBirds.com, the product that you receive will be unique. The wood grain will differ from the picture on our website as cedar is a natural organic product and no two pieces are the same. Variations in the wood color, grain, knots and texture will occur on each product. We do not consider these differences to be defects as they are natural occurrences in the wood grain which can be quite beautiful!
