Here are some better pictures I took today:
The food gets stuck in the grey bend. I have to bang agianst it to get it to go into the orange part. Now I understand a chicken is supposed to peck at it and it will roll forward for her sisters?
Since the whole feeder part is tilted I thought there would be no problem.
As for the mice - I have 3 dogs and I am allergic to cats so, no. I have traps ( I release them out of town), but I would rather not feed them in the first place.
The sprinklers need to go off - this is my lawn!
I was thinking of something that would cover the feeder, that I could lift up in the morning and cover at night without entering the coop.
The two 90 degree pipes is the problem. You can't have it turn the corner like that...
This is how you can fix it. Make sure it is strait so the feed will flow better as well.
As for the water getting into the feed, you can try and building something like a little roof over the feed area or move your coop out of the way of the water. I can't help you there.
