So I was realizing that there was a lot of wasted feed in my brooder every day. Lol. I have one of the circular feeders with holes and a pint feeder on top. Today I put a paper plate topped with a paper towel under it (so it isn’t slippery to step on). Almost all of the food that has fallen out of the feeder is in the plate! I attached a pic in case it will help anyone else.
