No Waste Quail Chick Feeder

[winningsoul]

I have Jumbo Coturnix Quail Chicks and am looking for a no waste quail chick feeder. I know there are some for adults and I have seen the diy no waste quail feeders however those are too big for a small chick to use. Any ideas on chick no waste feeders?

I wish I could find my pictures, but I took a small plastic container and put 1/2" or so holes into it with an X-acto knife. As they grew I made the holes a bit larger.

I saw these that are smaller than the ones they diy for chickens. I have them on my Quail Wishlist.

Based on the pictures on Amazon, those look about the right size for adult coturnix. I found some 3-D printed ports on Etsy that were a lot smaller, but I can't recall the seller's name. I think the smaller ports were around 1" in diameter, or maybe that was the outer dimension. I've considered trying 45 degree PVC fittings as I've seen in a YouTube video or two. Maybe start with 3/4" and increase size as the birds grow.

I took a small round plastic food container and cut a few holes into the base, then turned it upside down and I have never found more food saving feeder for my messy chicks, even from the store. Sometimes the DIY solution is better.
