I have a flock of 3 (1 Columbian Wyandotte and 2 Welsummers) that will be 8 weeks on Thursday. The Wyandotte is slow to feather, so I imagine I'll have them inside for another week or two. I'm looking to conserve floor space in their coop and am trying to find a solution for feed that will hang on the wall. Has anyone used one of these wall-mount rabbit type feeders?

My concern is that my Columbian Wyandotte is pretty talented at flinging feed out of the small-holed chick feeder. Maybe if mounted high enough? I like that it's compact, and with 3 chickens, I don't need anything larger. I've also read nearly ever thread here about the PVC feeders/waterers, and those are tempting, but as a single girl, I kind of like the non-DIY solution!
Thanks in advance!
