How small/big do holes in a feeder need to be for chicks, from hatchlings up to 8 weeks, to fit their heads in but keep the adults and older chicks out?

Not sure how one would successfully achieve that. If you can create a place of refuge for the chicks, and keep their food and water in that place, that might work. I made (but have yet to use) something of this nature. Basically, i built a "table" and then added vertical strips of wood all around. The idea being that the chicks can get through the gaps, but the mature chickens cannot. As I say, its just an idea that i had - not yet tested.
