3D Printing for Chickens (Feeders and Other Accessories)
Have a 3D filament printer? Want to make some useful things for your chickens? Then this article is for you! 3D printing lets you create custom shapes out of plastic materials, potentially quite unlike any premade products on store shelves. This article is broken into three pages:
- About 3D Printing: some basic things about 3D printing with a focus on filament-based printing, including some important terminology and general things to be aware of when printing for chickens. Start here if you're wondering about getting into 3D printing or if you're very new to it.
- 3D Printable Projects for Chickens: several chicken-relevant projects you can print right now, most of which are related to feed/water - but also including the little chicken design shown as a print-in-progress in the title image.
- Designing 3D Printable Objects for Chickens: a brief overview of 3D modeling software and design considerations for making chicken-safe, functional objects.
