I'm about to get 25 cornish x and will have them in a 10 x 12 coop. How many linear feet of feeders will it take to satisfy them and how much feed/day should I expect to feed each day? I know that will change as they grow. Thanks
10 x 12' Plenty of room for the birds... 1 feeder will be OK, 2 would be more than enough to do the job...
i had 12 cornish x's this past summer in a 4x10 space with a 3 gallon feeder, i filled the feeder probably every three days or so... goodluck
Quote:I put 75 birds in a 10x10 coop, and that's about the max I'd do in that size, so you should be fine for size. You will be fine with a 3 foot trough feeder for 25 birds, but you'll have to fill it quite a bit. I'd make a feeder out of a 5 gallon bucket (there are plans on here somewhere.) If I remember right, I went through about 45 pounds/day with 75 birds.
