Hi folks
I just went thru a 50# bag of pellets in less than 2 weeks.... I have 11 hens and normally a bag will last about a month. I have a hanging feeder in the coop all the time and suspect someone is coming in for a free lunch. I haven't seen any squirrels and I don't think I would see mice (could mice eat that much???). I think the only thing I can do is feed in the am before work (the light comes on at 5am) and pull the feeder in when I leave for work. I know they don't like changes... is this going to disrupt the egg output??? Any other suggestions
Thanks
