Okay so I have 2 chicks about 3 months old they are golden comets. they will be my 4-h pullets to choose from for the fair. i really need to know if there is an easy way to keep them from knocking over chick feeder amd waterer because it is making the bedding really gross and causing their feathers to get messed up. i have the feed and waterers sitting on a piece of wood right now but they keep getting stuff in them and knocking them over. can anyone help?? thanks so much

Can you show us (photos) the housing setup you have them in? This will help us better advise you as to how to fix the problem you are having as we will know what options would/wouldn't work for your particular coop/run/enclosure.
On another note - hopefully you have verified with your leader/county office that GC will be accepted for show. Because they are not an actual breed there are variances in counties/states where they can/can't be used as exhibit birds.
