new galvanized feeder question?

[bravevline]

if i fill up a thirty pound galvanized metal feeder and give to seventeen chickens how long should it last!?

It depends on how much they waste, their size and age. I like to put a slightly larger pan under it so when they bill it out of the feeder the pan collects it. 4 light layers will eat up to a pound a day.
