I found this on Facebook and used it. It works great and holds chicken food for weeks. I bought a secondtrash can and made it into a waterer that also last a while!

Omg I love that idea! Did you make the waterer just like that one?

Nope! If you have a hose close by you could drag it into the coop life the lid off and have someone turn it on and off for you! I’m so happy now because of this, now I don’t have to feed them everyday! If you don’t have a hose near by you can fill it up with water buckets!

Hi. This is an interesting thread.
How doesn't the pellets fall out and how can I find this?

Anyone do DIY poultry projects for fun? If so, please share what it is... Even if you haven’t done it yet- maybe drop some ideas?

I just want to start fun little projects whenever I’m bored.

I want to make a DIY eco glow brooder plate... but not exactly sure where to start.

Thanks,

Kayla!

So we stick a PVC pipe and if you want you can leave it on if you see in the pic they left the end on so the chickens have to stick there heads in there and get it. It’s hard to explain, but this is what we did for mine...

we put in the PVC pipes and cut the ends off, then we put tape on the bottom so the chickens don’t throw it around, the ducks use it to!

I think I’m going to try to make the Mama Heating Pad brooder thing by @Blooie.

If anyone has any ideas on what to use as the hoop part.. that would be great. I don’t exactly have extra fencing pieces lying around
