I like all the designs. I thought we could only use a bucket for it!

We were having a lot of problems with the chickens wasting food... A LOT of food. So, we decided to make a no waste gravity feeder. Works great and has cut the feed bill significantly. They can also be made just about any size to accommodate your specific needs. The PVC elbows create "portholes" where the chickens can access the feed without being able to pick through it to only eat what they want, leaving the rest. We also made one out of a 5 gallon bucket and 2" elbows for the brooder coop. Super easy to make and we'll worth the time and effort!
