My meat chicks always stand on their slide-top feeder that has holes in it so when they poop, it goes right into their food. They seem picky & prefer the 'fresh' food rather than the pooped-on food. I suppose i can build a cover for it that if they're standing on that, the poop doesn't fall in their food but every time I turn around, I'm trying to accomodate their bad behaviors (haha) so I'd prefer any suggestions you have...
Also, any votes on galvanized chick feeders or the red plastic ones & why? This was our first venture into meat chicks but we're going to get more laying chicks in the spring so gathering as much advice as possible regarding tricks of the trade.
