The critters would eat everything I grew in my small back yard garden...I decided to build a cage over it to keep them out. It works really well and only took me 3 days to build it out of pvc pipes and hardware cloth.

I can totally see this doubling as a finch avery or a quail enclosure:) Really great job! How did you fasten the hardware cloth to the PVC?

Thank you. I have often thought of letting my birds out there.
I rolled the hardware cloth across the ground and put the pvc pipes along each side...sat on the ground and attached them together with zip ties. After I got them all in place, I went back and used wire to make it more secure.

Great job:) I am wanting to build chicken tunnels for my girls to go from there run to the compost pile, tortoise enclosure, and garden beds to get them ready for next spring:)
