    Hi All, I am planning on buying a standard size grandpas Automatic chicken feeder, but it is out of stock on the website and on Amazon. I can only find one slightly rusty one on eBay, which is currently £52, and the bids will probably go up from there. I am happy to pay the full £123 for the...

    Grandpa’s Feeder help

    Help!! I was excited to get to grandpa’s feeder but now I feel like it’s stressing out my hens and me! I did as instructed, kept it at level one for a week, and then moved it to Level 2.

    At a Crossroads on Feed!

    My first flock, all hens, have eaten Purina Layena Plus with wonderful results. I still provided oyster shell/crushed egg shell on the side. I now have a mixed flock: four 2+ yo hens (the originals), nineteen 16 week old pullets, and four 16 wo cockerels (the littles). The littles were on...

    Grandpa Feeder help!

    I love love this feeder, although my chickens love to stand on it and poop on the cover where you put the food in. There's poop that collects in the lip above the opening and I'm thinking it falls in when it is opened. I'm having to clean it every few days. Is there something I can put on...
