Diy feeders

[Crazyfarmlady25]

I was using a small hanging feeder that was on a block on the ground with an ice cream bucket over the top but wanted to make something that wouldn't need to be filled as often (had needed feed every other day) I tried pvc feeders and one is always empty by night time the other they don't seem to like. The ones I made are 2" pipes that are 2ft long and holds 1.5 cups (24 Oz cup). Not sure if adding something to the one to slow down the flow of the crumble would help or not or if I should maybe try a diy bucket feeder? Pics of the two pvc feeders we made and one of the bucket feeder I'm thinking of maybe making. First pic is the one they don't seem to eat out of much.

PVC pipe feeders are good. Most that I saw were from 4 inch pipes. They were about 4 foot in height. Another good thing about those,,,,,, They can be plugged closed for the night time.. No snacks for night time predators/opportunists. Also keeps moisture, and weather related rain/snow out as well.
I think the larger pipes would hold more feed, and last more days.
