can you use sunflower hearts in this feeder?

Yes but it is not squirrel proof. First the squirrel got the lid off, so I fastened it with a caribena clip. Next he chewed the plastic perches and plastic round the holes, causing them to be rough, so I stopped using it. The feeder lasted for about 3 weeks.

Would this stop the crows taking all the seed

I have not had crows in my garden, but pigeons and magpies don't use them. But I do have other feeders which they do use.

Could the spotted woodpeckers use this feeder, I don't want to stop them but am plagued by jackdaws, crows and squirrels?

A lesser spotted woodpecker would , middle and greater would possibly struggle to get inside but may reach with its beak from the outside. We have a nuthatch which is approximately the same size as a lesser spotted visit and feed without any problems. It also does actually keep out squirrels, magpies and jackdaws.

Is there room for fat balls in this item?

The central portion which is for bird food takes seeds, mealy worms or shelled peanuts. It's not meant for fat balls as the food cylinder only has 4 small access points for the birds to eat the contents. The exterior cage is simply to keep squirrels away from the food and not meant to hold anything. It's better to put fat balls out in a simple hanging cylinder made of strong mesh to birds can alight on it and eat the fat inside. A simple fat ball holder is a lot cheaper than this item.
