Is this hanging feeder too high?

That's about how high I hang my feeders. Nary a pellet ends up on the ground as they don't have enough head swing height to bill it out. I blame all pellets on the ground on the rooster as he was the only one tall enough.

Hmm, I sure don't want a mess! Maybe I'll leave it for a while, and if I notice them having problems I can lower it then. Thanks! She didn't seem irritated by the height, it just doesn't look comfortable to me. I suppose they don't care as long as they can eat, right

I would still probably make it more comfortable for them to eat.

Thanks! My hubby agrees that it's a bit too high, so I'll be lowering it about 3 inches tomorrow.

I would lower it a couple or three inches.

It looks like it was fine to me.

Just wondernig...did you get that metal bin from the Tractor Supply store? We just got a few of them and they look just like that.

Actually it's just a hog pan from the local hardware store.

It's funny how half the replies say it's fine and the rest say it's too high.

maybe needs to be lowered a little looks like she is having a hard time.

Why not lower it some and if you see more waste take it back up about half of what you lowered?
