Trying to get some ideas of the best place to keep the feeder.
It is easy to get them to the coop at night when the feeder is in the coop, but having the feeder in the coop keeps them full and they don't seem to forage as much during the day and are much more difficult to control.
I have also tried feeding them outside the coop for limited access, making them easy to "call" with treats when I need to. I just am not sure how to keep that efficient, as it can be difficult to keep out mice when the feeder is outside.
What have you found to be most efficient? I do not have anywhere to hang a feeder.
