I didn't say 'for outside the run', my words were 'for the outside run' (not the coop). I would like to keep the feeders (relatively) clean of debris and poop, so was looking at ones to mount that might work good. I have a miller flip top out there at the moment.
Thanks! I was just looking at one of those on Etsy. It looked great - shipping was expensive though (nearly as much as bucket.
Hi Mary, the fencing is hardware cloth. We have a small tin roof from the coop down to the gate, but we are going to extend it to cover a bit more of the run. The side where the food is we are going to put some sort of plastic to protect from the elements. The feeder we have outside at the moment they have tipped over a couple of times, so I am trying to figure out what to do with feeders inside and out. Their coop is small (6 x 4). For now, we have boarded up the nesting boxes until they are ready to start using them, so I have a waterer and feeder on the ground. Once the board comes off, I don't want to block the nesting boxes, so am considering hanging small waterer and feeder on the coop door (as I don't want to take up the floor space in front of nesting boxes). I was thinking of putting a little bar on the inside of the door to hang them on - I was looking at the Little Giant plastic hook over feeder - not sure whether this is good, but am trying to get it right, so I don't waste too much money.
