I'm reaserching chicken feeders and waterers that aren't completely redneck like my current ones but arent real expensve. Pretty nice ideas, just tryin to decide which one to build!
I'm way behind cause I bailed early last night so I could go deer hunting this morning, but wanted to put my 2 cents worth in. I'd like to see you go with the PVC feeder. It's super easy to build, and relatively cheap. The only thing I did differently from what you'll find on the "Show me your feeders" thread is to use 4" PVC instead of 3". I didn't take the parts list to the store when I bought them, and mistakenly bought 4" instead of 3". As it turned out, I'm glad I made the mistake; it holds more feed and is easier to fill (I can use a larger feed scoop). I should have gone with a shorter upright cause I have to stand on tiptoes to fill it, but that's easily rectified.

I hung mine inside a covered run, with the opening facing away from the prevailing wind, and the feeds never gotten wet in the 3-4 months it's been in use.

And there you have my 2 cents worth...enjoy.

Personally, I think that was more like 3c worth of information... but that's just me.
