If you are in Melbourne there is a place called Wiretainers in Preston which make cages for Rats and Mice, which is basically a plastic tub with a stainless steel wire top, which also houses their food and sip-feeder. They do have a web site if you google wiretainers you are sure to find it

Dead right Matt, the plastic are for the chooks. The stainless are for Rabbits & Guinea Pigs, I have them on my rats and work great. As for mice I'm not sure, I don't breed my own mice.
