"No Waste" Chicken Feeders DO NOT WORK

[@tasmedic]

Great idea. I will adapt this idea for my own chickens. Thanks!

Great idea! I’m going to try this

Great concept! May I suggest making the holes a little bit bibber on the plastic? I just would not want them to struggle too much to get their food....otherwise ...Great JOB!! Also, I have learned that wetting their food with water eliminates 99 percent of food waste.

Great idea, I'm going to build one

How high is the distance between the bottom of the box and the hole from which the rooster puts his head?

Ho costruito anch'io una cosa simile e mi sono trovato benissimo è da quasi 8 anni che la uso

Would you please provide dimensions? Like, diameter of holes in plastic and how far up from the bottom? Construction of hopper, and size/placement of holes at the bottom? How long have you used this, and what problems did you have? I live in dry, high-ish desert so this should work well in my chicken hoop house. Thanks!

I just added the basic dimensions on the video description. I've had this for over 3 years and no issues. Just make sure you keep it away from the rain. Thanks for watching.

I purchased a Royal Rooster and it does not work. I keep my chicken coop and accessories very clean. When it rained just a little water would seep into the feeder and glob the chicken feed up. Then it would clog in an unreachable spot and it would harden like glue. You would have to unscrew it and actually take it apart to get it fully clean. It was a great idea in concept, but it does not work. The only way this might work is in a completely enclosed space, but that does not fix the cleaning issue. No one wants to have to unscrew a feeder every time it needs to be cleaned. Depending on how you had it fixed to your coop, you would have to undo that as well. I had to add zip ties to mine to attach them to my coop, so I had to cut them too, every time it needed to be cleaned. In the end, this was more trouble than it was worth, and I wound up throwing it out.

I see what you mean about the rain water causing clogging issues. This is why I highly suggest that with any type of feeder to be inside the coop clear from away from exposure to rain or have it placed in a well protected area from rain. My chickens can still free range but the feed is always available to them in the coop. So I have had no issue of clogging, and also I've never had to clean the feeder at all while in use as long as the lids are intact.

Nice rat and mouse feeder

Model on 0,5 minut is not bad but if you have large an small chickens the little can't do the job.
