Aussie Finch Forum

hi there this is the setup ive got
then underneath is a stainless steele wire tray. which is for seeding grasses and the grits and so on it work pretty good so far

Will,Mine are fixed to the door.I use a scoop to emty them.the bottom one now has the mealworm and chitted seed in it.as i dont want the worms mixing in seed that i will winnow.they have sides cut into them so when the bird flys of it doesnt spread the seed on the floor.Most of the drums i got from the tip,at the recyling area.

Thanks for the photo's.
Mine's working alright at the moment as I have 6 pair in a large Aviary (7x3x2.5m) but I can see that catch try gonna fill real quick when I hit 20-30 birds.
Mesh & catch tray underneath sounds a good idea mickp, I'll be able to make a bigger catch tray.Should last longer.Looking at others shows me I'll need a bigger tray.

Nice pic there fincher thank for sharing.
Keep them coming everyone this is very useful.

that is then setup for me flight cage for 2-3 pr. then in me big avairy its got the same hopper but with a big tray thats 600mmx 500mm x 100mm high and it takes a while to fill it up then i just tip into a bucket whih then goes to me dads for his chooks.
thanks chris

Yeh thats the size I'm gonna need. Mine lasts about 6 days now

Those feeders on ebay look great

Did you notice the ebay name of the seller.......hungrybluecat1967

Hope they dont have one of those!

didnt you read the fine print Diane, with each feeder purchased you get a free cat

I certainly dont need any more "free" cats.....I get the neighbours cats as freely as they like. So I let my dogs out as freely as I like. Quid pro quo....keeps their cat fit belting for the fence and trying to scramble over before my dogs get to it.

Thats got to be the best part of owning a dog
