feeder

Hello! I have a chick feeder, and was wondering if i could use it for my grown chickens? They’re small since they’re Seramas, but are there any issues?

So I have a good amount of birds (not as many as I used to) but I don’t like their food on the ground. I want to make a feeder but I’m not sure what kind to make since I want to make sure everyone gets some food. I also don’t want to just pour a 50 lbs bag in there and let ‘em have at it. They...

So I live on several acres about half of which are forested. There is a large one acre pond. We DEFINITELY have field mice I've had to seal out of the main house. There's also an old barn and a shed on the property that at least harbor field mice but would make nice rat homes until I can repair...

Hi, I'm Rachel and I am a brand new chicken owner! I have had my 6 girls for 2 weeks and because I got them from a breeder the age range is 2-5 weeks. I have four silkies, an Olive Egger and a Black Copper Marans. I live in a suburban area right outside Detroit in Michigan but my city allows up...

Hi there everyone. So my quails have hatched this morning. YAY! Anyway i have been waiting on Tractor Supply to get more jars for the little feeders but they havnt gotten them in yet. I only had 1 mason jar the fit for the water. Does anyone know of any other like spaghetti sauce jar or...

I have 1 week old baby chicks, Sapphire assorted. And I have 3 that like to sit in the feed and scratch/kick it all out. They've run through a whole bag of feed (only 5lbs) because it's all in the bedding now. I have the typical feeder, circular with 8 holes. I've tried raising it, but they just...

This Buttermilk Feeder and Poultry Fountain belonged to my Grandfather.

Newbie here! I've been looking at a ton of feeders and waterers for my bantam chicks for when they grow up. Out of curiosity, is there any reason not to use a hanging bird feeder made for wild birds? I feel like my girls are going to be a lot smaller than your average chicken, and if the feeder...

Hi y'all just wanted to post my quail feeder I designed and printed out this weekend. All files are available for free on thingiverse. Just search low mess quail feeder. It does take a couple days to print, however only costs a couple dollars in filament.

You may ask, what is the name of the theif? The name is sparrow and there are HUNDREDS OF THEM, please I need help to find a sparrow proof feeder that is cost effective and maybe diy. I'm tired if wasting money on these pesky birds and I also don't want their diseases either. please help me any...

I currently have an open dish for food, and a bowl for water but I would like to upgrade. and needed some new ideas for a feeder and a waterer for about 30 chickens I also have a HUGE sparrow problem :barnie(those darn things I can't seem to get rid of them ) What is your favorite...

I have found a great alternative to Grandpa's treadle feeder, and it is made by a small company here in Maryland. The Rent-a-Coop Treadle feeder is very similar in operation. Given I have had to upgrade my feeder quickly as we are fighting a nasty Rat problem, I couldn't wait for the Grandpa...

Hi All, New chicken Mom here. I have a small flock of 5 chicks (Hoping they are all Pullets - they are 13 weeks old now). I have a few questions on how often I should add food and/or change the water. For the Feeder, I have the 4 LB Poultry Feeder. I'm using Crumble. Right now, I only it...

It has been weeks now:( (Video attached) I spent two weeks at training level 1 (1st peg, fully open, no lid movement). After a week at training peg 2, they still won’t use it as intended. They will eat down the feed from the sides (not requiring they step on pedal) until it’s so low they can’t...

I put feeders in their coop with food 24x7 but they jump on top of the feeder and poop in it. And when the poop goes in their food they don't eat it anymore. A lot of their food is going to waste and I have to wash their food and water feeders every single day. They only eat some of their food...

Hi! 3 out of the 6eggs i tried to let poultry supply incubate hatched May 16/17. This is my second time to raise baby chicks without the hen. My brooder space is quite big but they are only 3. It is about a 2ft x 2ft dimension. I have used 25watts light bulb for there heat source placed in the...

Chicken palace no. I just need automatic coop door, automatic waterer (maybe with a float), diy automatic feeder... Maybe a camera to make sure everything is OK. I had to have surgery a few months ago and doing chores meant me nagging older kids to help out, just to free up time and to make the...
