Can you post the name and phone number of the dealer or PM me. I won't be able to get it from him but I can use the info to try to get a reduced rate from my local guy.

Thanks.

I would love to have a little outbuilding like this but our Winters here in Michigan are too harsh - it would cost a fortune to heat it I think.

Nice job on that project - it looks awesome.

Really not as bad as you would think. We of course don't get as cold for as long as you do but it did very well for me last winter. The building is built with 2x4 studs and I insulated just like you would a house. I also added plastic sheeting over the insulation before hanging drywall. The building is less than 100 sft and the rats themselves produce quite a bit of heat. I used a small space heater with an electronic thermostat set on 65. I gave them a little extra bedding and they produced like crazy all winter.

Where do you get the drinking fittings at the end of the hose? I cant seem to find them

I'm sure there are more but these are the two I have used.

I put in some calls and am now gettingMazuri for 21 a bag

Not as cheap as your getting it for though

You like the Mazuri?

Seems like they really go through the Kent feed rather quick so Im hoping the Mazuri equals less consumption

Nice looking setup.... :gj:

I have been thinking about doing something like this and you have inspired me. So this will be my next big project. :D
