I recently elevated my feeder about 4 to 6 inches off the ground; now my birds won't eat from their feeder. Its the same feeder I've been using for months now its just elevated. It has been three days and they won't eat. I want the feeder elevated because while its on the ground they scratch and kick dirt into their food.
Has anyone experienced this and how did they resolve the issue. My first thought was they'll eat once they get hungry enough to overcome their fear of the raised feeder...but this is day three and I am getting a little concerned.
My birds are four 19 week old Australorps.
