haha bit too tall for that ... it was bigger but the missus is only 5foot so i had to cut it down hence why its on a little slant . il sort that when i get a proper saw though |

It looks nice Scott Have you thought of putting a few perches/branches instead of the square landing base? |

took the top off now and straightened it .... and no bb dont want any twigs there ... the platform is for there fruit and millet its just a feeding space for them which i thought would be better at feeding time going to feed them some millet now lets see if they use it |
