Duct tape ? There's no duct tape on there. The squirrels would have chewed that off if the weather didn't get to it first.
No, I had used a glass cookie jar and had a plumbing attachment that could be screwed into the lid and secured from the other side with a male attachment.
I've got a more squirrel one in mind but I haven't seen any chipmunks yet at my new townhouse. And i've been here for years. :-/
Thanks. I'm hoping to film a "how to" video soon with a significantly improved feeder.
The feeder in this video wasn't quite squirrel proof. I've had to secure the lid because they kept twisting it off and a black squirrel even got stuck in the pipe ! It had managed to squeeze in because it was soaked by rain.
I've got all of the material so all I need to do now it to find the time...
I moved about one fourth of a KM away from my previous residence and hoped to have some little visitors but my feeder's untouched. :( There are more cats here so that could be the problem.
Thanks. The squirrels are smart though. They did unscrew the lid before I stabilized it with some nails. I guess I should have glued it. And one of the more adventurous squirrels thought he could get in because he was wet due to rain - He got stuck and we had to help him get out.
That was GREAT!!!

The one inside at the beginning had its cheeks full with nuts. The one that showed up started the fight and came back out for a moment...

Adorable. Looks cartoon-like. Makes you wonder if they swap places after the first altercation.

I could tell them apart for a while because "Poppy" lost a bit of hair on his head durring th incident.

I was lucky to get it on film. It only happened a three to four times and they only did it twice in a row when I had filmed them.

Ah thats a shame, they make wonderful pets. They're actually fairly easy to buy here in the UK, but quite expensive.

Hehe exactly the same as my 2 pet chipmunks, always stealing food from each other. Nice vid :)

:) We unfortunately can't have 'em as pets here in Ontario. It's illegal to own members of the local wildlife.
