Modifications suggestions for feeder.

[Doebob]

Hi all,
I am looking for suggestions on how to modify the feeder below to keep 5-6 week old Cornish from roosting on it. I tried to put it on blocks but because of the height of the kennel that is their home they can still fly up. I have a circle feeder that I use now, but because I have switched from dry feed to fermented I have to fill it 4 times a day. I will only have this batch another 3 weeks before they head to freezer camp, but I have my new laying flock coming in a little over a month and I need to get ready for those ladies, too.

Make a roof of some sort to put over it, or put a roller (out of pvc or something similar) on top of it.

Maybe place it next to a wall. Put in something higher they can roost on near by. In my brooder/grow out tractor, I have what I call a practice roost, about four or five inches high. As well as a roost for when they are juveniles.
