Had previous problem w/birds climbing into feed pan i had out plus they would use the bathroom in the pan! So, I used this old grill to make a simple feeder, Punched holes and used wire to string the gap. The chicks seem to like it. It took five mins to make and I saved $ over having to buy a real feeder. Priceless-)

Also, Open my album and see my chickens too. The black/whites have feathers on their toes, Anybody know what kind they are?

very good! Now I'll be thinking about this when i see bbqers at yard sales

I'm sure someone will be here shortly to tell you what kind of birds.

What a great idea, I like that!

Your black and white chickens are Light Brahmas.

I like the feeder! That was a great idea!

Those are some mad recycling skills! Enjoy your Light Brahmas. I had some a few years ago and really loved them.

I love it! Does it do a good job keeping the rain out?
