I'm a second-timer raising chicks. As the first batch made a mess billing feed from the feeder, I devised a little catcher and it saved me substantial mess and waste. I placed a five pound barbell at the floor, then a donut magnet, a tin lid, and finally the feeder. I just assembled the same again for the new chicks and they seem to be avoiding it. I looked up magnetic fields and chickens, but there's not much to find.
Am I messing the birds up? It's so convenient to disassemble, clean, etc. I'd rather keep the arrangement.
