Chicken Experiments

I've been using the mason jar as a feeder for the two chickens.  It's been working fine except for the fact that they eat SO much that I have to fill this up almost every evening.

Mason jar feeder for chickens

We have a leftover cat feeder, that the cat is no longer using.  It's got more feed storage room than the small mason jar.  So we're going to try that.  I just filled it up partially for a test tomorrow.  I'll see if they can spill it, or if it makes a huge mess.  It probably will make a huge mess as it has a large open area as opposed to the small holes on the metal part of the other feeder.

Cat feeder option that we already have...
I guess I need to research what other options there are out there.  Besides, of course, getting two mason jar feeders :)

  1. I'm looking into a PVC feeder using chicken nipples. I'll let you know how it goes. Rob
