I only have 2 because they live in the nearby tree and attack any other hummingbirds that try to come for a drink.

Keep the one the pair protects, add a second 10-15' away. When they start resource guarding that one, add a third in the middle. We're up to five feeders now using this methodology.

Good idea. I did put out a second one like 5 feet away and haven't seen any fights but a third would probably even everything out. Thanks!
