I want to build a wooden squirrel complex…design help appreciated!
Basically, a loghouse style, multiple levels (maze-like?), with attached ferris wheel feeder and water barrel (gravity fed or water collection?).
My flyers have three new houses and a new cage. The outdoor hypertufa condo is now part of my local woodsy environment. Now I want to make a practical and fun house for the other squirrels in the area.
Predator protection is important as there are red tail hawks, owls, etc around here…Thus the practical reason for a railed, covered veranda on the "log cabin" deep enough to provide protection. I can see a side door opening to a feeder and waterer.
