There are many versions of this feeder. I used your plan and it's feeding chickens now. It's the best and smartest design yet. The secret to this one is that it doesn't let the level of the feed get high enough for the chickens to pull it out on the ground. Well done.

I’ve seen many of these homemade feeders but usually they are just J shaped with no awning to keep water out and no consideration for the spillover. These two features of your design are really important so I think I’m going to follow your lead when making mine. Thanks for the video.

when elbows connect, water could come in. maybe without pvc glue one could use silicone just to keep the elements out while allowing any flexibility for cleaning, etc. my experience with silicone is even if you move it, the surface coverage was perfect so it's like putting a puzzle back together without any gaps

I have made the same feeder and my chickens found a way to make them spill lol, they drag out the pellets all over the floor and eventually eat it but have to clean up the spillage as they "contaminate" it and it becomes waste. I use it indoors as the field rats love the leftovers outside. Great idea for a feeder though since it's cheaper than almost all online feeders. I also added little stainless handles for the cap for easier removal.

One thing you can do under the cap is cut a few kerf cuts like a plus sign down the sides not too far where the cap won’t cover, it makes it easier to take the cap off, it’s a small detail but it could be helpful to some. Nice video by the way, I like the way you made it with a built in awning!

That is a 3" test cap you put in the bushing. Could save a couple bucks if you just used a scrap piece of 4" at the bottom with a 4" test cap. Also by cutting it yourself you can decide how tall it stands off the ground.

Could we use a double wye pipe so it can be accessed from both sides?
@HeyBema888
@HeyBema888 Жыл бұрын
Consider the angle open to the rain. A wye will have the exposed opening facing upward, a sanitary drain tee will allow a “roof awning” if you cut away the bottom half of the opening as in the video. Also, sewer/drain PVC is 1/3 the cost of Charlotte pipe, this project is not under pressure, so schedule 40 pipe/fittings aren’t necessary. Our feeders used indoors are not even glued, so they’re easier to take apart and clean. Outdoor ones will need to be glued, so rainwater does not run down inside the fittings and wet the feed.

Sorry to be extremely BLANT. 1) As slick as this looks, there will definitely be a spill, chickens do not eat with forks and knives with all table manners. 2) because this feeder has plenty of food inside, that is an invitation for rodents and other little birds to pester the chicken. 3) This long pipe seems to be awful long, that would not fit inside my coop. 3) the inside of the pipe is dark for the chicken to see because she puts her whole head inside and the shoulders block light. What I did for my Rhode Island whites, KISS. Keep it Simple & Sweet (not stupid). I have 2 feeders. One is 1½ Gallon with 4 holes. Because one hen is a bully she wants to eat alone almost and chases away the others. So I got this 2-gallon pail from the hardware store for less than $15.00. including lid. I made 2 holes; in the middle, I glued a separator so the 2 chickens could not see each other while they fed and there was no pecking. The 2 docile hens will stay in the Airbnb coop, and the other quarrelsome and feisty ones will be moved to the little Alcatraz coop which has plenty of room for 2 hens and a cozy and ample egg nest and good run. I used a utility knife and a file. The End.
