You need to stop the wild birds from getting into your chickens feed. They carry lots of diseases that are contagious to chickens. Some these diseases can kill your birds. So do your best to keep the wild birds out.

I use those small black rubber horse tubs. They don't tip easily and the chickens can't scoop out any feed. You can get these at the feed store in the horse section. There are several different sizes depending on how many chickens you have any how many feeding stations you need.
 
Click on the link in my sig. line for the treadle feeder plans. Instructions are there along with a downloadable pdf file of the dimensions for all the parts.
 
Here is a cool feeder I saw on Tour De Coup - it is 3 peices of PVC pipe - 1 long, 2 elbows. It looked like 3" diameter. Pour the feed in and gravity does the rest. They can't scratch it out on the ground.
