Couldn't have done it without the advice, suggestions and detailed help of the great members of this awesome website. Thank you!
The outside appearance of the two systems. The white MUST GO and will soon. Approximately 18 pounds of feed and 4 ish gallons of water. I'm enjoying the convenience!
Once my first born took to the technique, every other bird followed suit and figured it out. So glad!
The shield on the trough is for protection from the elements and to keep the feed hoggers from jumping on top and blocking access to everyone else.
A snap on cover that prevents access completely.
What it looks like snapped into place and protecting my feed. Not sure I'll ever use it, but just in case....
Where it hangs now and some bricks so the little guys can reach the nipples. I'll assume that I'll need to move it as they grow and will adjust as needed.
The roosting pole made from a downed tree branch and the feed tube assembly.
