can you attach a bluebird house to this? If so how?

Yes. There is a plate on the top to attach the birdhouse. You would think they would have pictured that part! It was very easy to assemble and put in the ground.

Yes you can. All you need is a mounting bracket which you can get from a birding supply store. Just make sur it will fit the diameter of the pole, then drill the pilot holes and drive some wood screws and you're done.

yes you can however the prong are not extremly stable so i would not get over a 12 inch bird house. Mine works well for my 12"X6" feeder. Just screw it to the bottom.

I attached bird feeders to the 2 I bought. They are very stable and strong. There is a platform on top with holes for screws, you can see it somewhat in the picture at this website: http://www.rakuten.com/prod/homestead-step-in-bird-feeder-pole-green/210432958.html?listingId=221446369 (Amazon's images don't show the top part), so I think you could attach a bird house to it.

Hi Gayle. Without doing some fancy bracket work on the bluebird house or drilling holes into the pole to screw the inside of the bluebird house to the pole the answer is no ~ not designed for that, but boy it would make life easy if it were! That would be a great suggestion to the manufacturer. Shari

You would have to fix a device/platform to place over the top pole...maybe with a slightly larger short pole to slide over the top of the main pole with a platform and attached birdhouse.

Ed, I just assembled the pieces into what looked like a house frame. The poles are all bungeed together like a tent would be. Once frames are assembled, just slide the house on the frame.

We live in an area inhabited by both western and mountain bluebirds, so I reamed the entrance out to about 1 9/16" with a hole saw, to make sure it would accommodate either. Worked out very well. Great bird house, by the way!

I used conduit pipe to attach it to my deck. you could use 4x4 posts in the ground then attach the fly to the poles

There is a heavy duty pole solld by Duncraft for Coates Purple Martin houses. It can extend 12 feet high and costs around $120. I suggest you check that out

I suppose you could, but have not tried. You would need to rig something. There is not a built in place to attach one.

We attached ours to a fence board. I don't anything else because it screws to the board or tree from the inside of the bird house.

I think you could. The top is wood and the pvc part is open where the wood and pvc connect so it should be fine. I did have sparrows nesting in mine recently. does the one inch hole cause any problems for the bluebirds with weather conditions or otherwise?

I am sure you could make a base (floor) to set it on and build on top of that. We used a gravel pad to build it on. A screen porch would be a nice addition using another set of framing brackets could make it easier. Good luck.

No there is not...it's a tin roof. It seems to me that it would not be too difficult to rig a system to hang it. I personally would not put a hook in the roof, because this bird house is hefty. I would use some heavy stainless steel wire, and put two eye hooks into the sides to mount it. You would have to be careful not to let the screws protrude inside of the house, because it could damage the occupants. You might have to use additional hooks to ensure it remains balanced. I plan to post a picture in the very near future, of my setup...good luck!

I actually used big hooks and put one end against the eave of the house and the other side was hooked to 2 poles on the side of my deck...it has a place on each corner to make hanging it pretty simple...you will have to have something tho to support corners

Not without some tools. I suppose you could get some bailing wire and tie them together.

I see no reason that you couldn't, you would just have to support it. Could probably do that with rigid duct and sheet metal screws

I don't see why not. I had considered doing that myself but attached it to the side of a small outbuilding instead good luck.

Not easily. You could probably find a way to attach them if you were dedicated to it.

It would be possible. but the pole is a triangular shape. You would have to have some clamps that would fit over two flat sides and put the house on the third surface of the pole. There could be other ways to do it, too, but just so you are forewarned. :)Our bat house is on the side of our barn under the eaves. We considered putting it on a pole, tho. Good luck!

You can screw the flange shown to the bottom of the bird house. The flange then fits tightly onto the pole. That is how I mounted my bird house. I only used 3 of the 4 pole sections because I drilled a hole in an old stump rather than put a hole in the ground. The pole is a nice heavy weight I am pleased with it and would definitely buy it again.
