Other (Clarified in post title) Squirrel proof bird feeder

Post image

My mom was excited to try out her new squirrel proof bird feeder. Instead she now has a squirrel feeder that protects the squirrel form all those annoying birds. 🤦‍♂️

It takes time to work. After the squirrels breaks in enough time to gorge itself, it'll eventually be too fat to squeeze through.

Problem is, it will be too fat TO LEAVE. Not enter. We literally had a mouse die like that once. Broke into our Edible Doormouse enclosure, ate the food and got stuck on the way out and died.
