Small easy DIY oyster shell feeder?

[dg14]

Anyone know any way fool proof ideas to keep oyster shell? I made my chicken feeder with repurposed PVC pipe. I know how to do those things. but I mean just smaller I guess..? thanks in advance and have a great day!

I think you just answered your question. Just make a pvc feeder and make it small. There's no reason why that won't work.

I wired a small dish to my chicken run about chicken height. That is their feeder for oyster shell

I use the pvc pipe feeder for my oyster shell and grit. Holds plenty for several weeks/months and doesn't take up much room.

I made these 2 out of leftover 2" PVC. 1 for grit, 1 for oyster shells.

32oz salsa jar held to HC with a reusable ziptie.
I do have to put some in there 1-2 times a week, but it keeps them from billing it out.

These were originally filled with nails. They hang on two screws that are scewed into the wall. They can be lifted off for refilling.

I screwed down two margarine tubs to a chicken-level horizontal 2x4 in their (covered) run. One for oyster shell, another for grit. They sometimes bill out the oyster shell, but they do end up cleaning it up off the ground, especially when the container starts to get low. Just don't fill them up too full.

Hubs built this; grit on left, oyster shell on right
