I do the same thing. I put a inverted flower pot inside the bucket which caused the feed not to pile in the middle of the bucket, it forces the feed to the outside edge of the bucket. If it stays in the center of the bucket too long it can go bad.

I only have one rooster left. The hawks have killed all my others. I have a pin for them at night and that worked but during the day I let them free range. I haven't figured out anything that would work for me. The hawks even come withing 50 feet of the house to get the chickens. I have some...

Thanks.. I understand now. I hatch Turkeys so my Lock Down would be on 25th day.

Please elaborate on the procedure and anything that I need to know for "Lockdown"?
