wow, someone is very rude.... I think it looks awesome, good job!

wow! That's an awesome idea!!

look at www.wayfair.com and search for hardware cloth... It's about a third of the cost verses anywhere like home depot or lowes....

I like the feeder that connects to the mason jars, they are easy and they don't seem to poop too much in the food, but I got the same mason jar waterer, and the water has to be changed so often because food and shavings get in there it is really a pain.
